The practice provides a comprehensive range of civil and infrastructure engineering services including earthworks, roads, drainage, flood studies and master-planning.

We use the latest industry standard software, including Civils 3D and MicroDrainage, providing efficient design solutions for our clients. Using these design tools, we look to coordinate civil and structural aspects of building projects into single models with a view to creating better, more considered, construction information for site teams.

Often we provide civil engineering as part of a multidiscipline service, but are equally happy to be engaged as a stand-alone discipline.

Our core services include:

• pre-purchase due diligence

• site appraisals and feasibility studies

• sustainable drainage solutions (SuDS)

• land drainage strategies and surface water management plans

• flood studies/modelling and alleviation schemes

• foul water disposal and sewerage treatment arrangements

• water authority approvals

• cut and fill estimates and earthworks analysis modelling

• highway, roads and public realm design schemes

• roads authority approvals

• peer reviews

• drainage surveys and investigations

Etive also arrange topographical surveys, ground investigation and utility surveys. Often we include these within a broader appointment with, say, structural engineering, offering clients a single warranty covering these critical aspects.
