What we stand for

How We Work

01

Trusted Advisors

We take time to understand your project before we pick up a shovel or write a word. You get advice, not just a report.

02

We Own Our Outcomes

If something needs to be resolved, we resolve it. You will not spend your time chasing us down.

03

Communicate for Understanding

Our reports are written to be read. You will understand what we found, what it means, and what comes next.

04

Practical, Buildable Solutions

We design for real conditions. What we recommend can actually be built, on your site, on your budget.

Tom Labelle
Repeat Client
“Ben & Zach were prompt, reliable, engaged in the process, and great to work with when preparing a slab-on-grade for a new building that became more involved than initially planned due to unusual ground conditions. As a former structural engineer that now builds, these guys have my recommendation.”
Danny Jacobsen
Structural Engineer & Builder
“Coast Geotechnical was integral to the success of our build, from lock block walls and retaining walls to the residential build from start to finish. Their detailed reports and clear instructions ensured that any questions or concerns were quickly addressed. I have already recommended Coast Geotechnical to everyone in need of geotechnical services.”
