Geotechnical & Soils Engineering
Coordinated geotechnical investigation, soils engineering, foundation and grading recommendations, and construction support.
GEOTECHNICAL & GEOLOGICAL SERVICES · SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
Before you invest in the property, understand the ground.
Integrated Geo Consultants provides coordinated geotechnical, soils-engineering and engineering-geologic consulting for residential and commercial projects—from property due diligence through investigation, design, permitting and construction.
INTEGRATED PRACTICE
One project. Two disciplines. One coordinated technical path.
Site development rarely separates neatly into “soil” and “geology.” IGC coordinates engineering-geologic and geotechnical/soils-engineering services so subsurface conditions, slope geometry, foundations, grading, retaining systems, hazards and agency requirements are evaluated as one project.
Professional services are performed by the appropriately licensed engineering geologist and soils/geotechnical engineering professionals working through IGC’s coordinated consulting team.
CORE SERVICES
Ground conditions translated into project decisions.
Engineering Geology
Field mapping, geologic interpretation, site characterization, and development-focused engineering geologic services.
Slope Stability Analysis
Evaluation of hillside geometry, subsurface conditions, landslides, adverse bedding, retaining systems, and slope constraints.
Geologic & Seismic Hazards
Fault rupture, liquefaction, landslides, seismic setting, erosion, expansive soils, and related geologic hazards.
Development & Permitting
Technical support for grading, foundations, retaining walls, plan check, permitting, agency response, and construction.
Property Due Diligence
Early geotechnical and geological screening before acquisition, design commitment, or major site investment.
RESIDENTIAL
Homes, hillside development & property decisions.
New residences, additions, remodels, vacant-land feasibility, slope distress, retaining walls, foundations, grading, due diligence and permit response.
Residential project →COMMERCIAL
Commercial development & technical coordination.
Site investigation, geotechnical and geologic constraints, grading and foundation support, seismic and slope hazards, agency coordination and construction-phase consulting.
Commercial project →FIELD WORK & PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Real sites. Field-based evaluation. Professional judgment.
REPRESENTATIVE PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Experience across residential, commercial, military, transportation and geophysical work.
Representative career experience includes U.S. Marine Corps communications tower sites, geophysical work at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, San Nicolas Island, MCAS El Toro and MCAS Tustin, Templin Highway / Caltrans project work, commercial development, and landslide remediation at Point Mugu.
Project references describe professional experience and do not imply that every named agency or owner directly retained Integrated Geo Consultants.
SERVICE AREA + SITE INTELLIGENCE
Southern California geology is local.
IGC serves property owners and project teams in Malibu, Beverly Hills, Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles, Valencia and Santa Clarita in Los Angeles County, as well as Camarillo, Ojai and other Ventura County communities.
From hillside development to existing foundation concerns, the review follows the property's ground conditions, proposed improvements and applicable agency requirements.

STRUCTURED PROJECT INTAKE
Start with the property and the project.
Provide the site, project type, concerns and available documents. IGC reviews the technical context before establishing scope and proposal pricing.
