Our Areas of Expertise

We deliver comprehensive remedial solutions for residential, commercial, and infrastructure assets. From diagnosis and inspections to design and certification of repairs, our services ensure buildings remain safe, compliant, and long-lasting.

Structural Condition Assessments

We begin every remedial project with a detailed condition assessment, identifying underlying issues before recommending solutions.

Our assessments include:

Structural inspections and reporting – identifying cracks, settlement, corrosion, and material degradation.
Non-destructive testing (NDT) – advanced testing techniques to detect hidden defects.
Compliance checks – ensuring buildings meet the National Construction Code (NCC) and local council standards.

These assessments provide a clear pathway to repair, strengthening, or replacement strategies.

Remedial Design & Repair Solutions

Our remedial engineers deliver tailored design and repair strategies to restore functionality, safety, and compliance.

Services include:

Crack and settlement repairs – engineered solutions to stabilise affected structures.
Concrete cancer (spalling) remediation – identifying causes, repairing damage, and preventing recurrence.
Waterproofing design and installation – protecting basements, rooftops, and retaining walls.
Strengthening and retrofitting – ensuring older structures meet current standards.

All remedial designs follow Engineers Australia professional practice guidelines.

What Our Clients Say

Our reputation is built on successful project delivery and long-term partnerships. Here’s what clients say about working with Apex Civil Engineers:

Samir was of really great service with a professional approach and can do attitude. I was impressed with APEX CE’s prompt service and quick delivery time. Look forward to our next business opportunity in the near future.

I recently used the APEX CE group for some of my Construction Certificate documents (Stormwater, Parking and Erosion/Sediments Plans). They were professional and easy to deal with, had a quick and timely turnaround and was very competitive in the quoting stage. I will definitely recommend Samir and his team for future projects.

I needed to install a detention pit as part of a Stormwater condition of my DA application but Samir proposed two rainwater tanks as a more feasible and cost effective alternative. I found Samir to be extremely reliable, knowledgeable and efficient. He promptly inspected my home, then drew the OSR Plans which were immediately approved by Ryde City Council. I would recommend Samir’s service to anyone.

I found Samir apart from having a professional approach to the building work to be a like able person to deal with Thanks again Samir Martin.
