What the company does

Northwest Geotech describes itself as providing geotechnical and environmental engineering, special inspection and materials testing, and laboratory testing on soils, concrete, aggregate, and asphalt. The company was founded in 1983 to provide construction monitoring, special inspection, and materials testing, along with geotechnical and environmental assistance, to private and public projects. Its stated client base includes municipalities, owners, contractors, developers, architects, and engineers throughout the Pacific Northwest.

The Services section splits into four areas:

  • Geotechnical Engineering
  • Environmental Services
  • Special Inspection & Materials Testing
  • Laboratory Services

If you already know which of these you need, open that service page directly rather than browsing the whole site.

Reviewing these before making contact can help you describe the type of project you have in mind.

How to make contact

Use the Contact Us page as the starting point for a project inquiry. The site does not publish a direct email address, phone number, or contact form details in the material available here, so the Contact Us page is the place to look for the firm's current contact channels.

If you are looking for something specific rather than making an inquiry, the General Site Map lists the site's pages in one place and is the fastest way to locate a particular section.

Common snags

  • JavaScript required. The site states that JavaScript must be enabled to use it. If menus or navigation don't respond, check your browser settings.
  • Copyright date. The site footer shows a 2015 copyright. Treat page content as potentially dated and confirm current details, such as personnel or certifications, directly with the firm.
  • No pricing published. The site does not list rates or fees, so any cost questions need to go through Contact Us.
