Our geologic assessments are based on a review of geotechnical references and maps and site observations (i.e. slope gtradients and orientation, buiulding setback from nearby slopes, etc.).  When performing a geological evaluation, we address the following:

  • Stability of slopes based on the type of bedrock
  •  Adequacy of grading performed at the property
  • Cut-fill transition lots
  • Presence of loose and settling fill soils
  • Presence of expansive soils
  • Earthquake hazards
  • Susceptibility to liquefaction
