CELEBRATING 20 YEARS

In 2023, Hunter Geotechnical Services marked its 20th anniversary, a significant milestone since our inception as Valley Civilab, a small materials testing laboratory. Over the years, we have meticulously expanded our testing apparatus and capabilities, transforming into a leader in our field.

Our journey saw a pivotal expansion in 2015 with the development of our professional services arm. We built a first-class team of geotechnical engineers, engineering geologists, environmental scientists, and other supporting professionals, enhancing our service offerings.

As we celebrate over two decades in business, we reflect on the evolution from Valley Civilab to Hunter Civilab, and most recently to Hunter Geotechnical Services. This journey underscores the hard work and dedication of our team. We are enthusiastic about our future and remain committed to excellence in serving our clients.

Thank you to our customers and partners for your ongoing support. We look forward to continuing our relationships and exploring new opportunities in the years to come.
