What it does

Good design and maintenance decisions depend on seeing the whole asset, not only what is visible from the road. Geo Mana uses difficult-access techniques, direct measurements and aerial context to inspect slopes, drainage, mesh, retaining elements and movement indicators. Findings are structured for the engineer, asset owner or project team.

Methodology

How the work runs

Every stage is matched to the engineer’s design and the conditions found on the face.

  1. 01

    Set the inspection brief

    The questions, access method, required measurements and reporting format are agreed before mobilisation.

  2. 02

    Reach the asset

    Rope access, aerial context and direct workface access are combined to inspect the relevant ground and components.

  3. 03

    Record conditions

    Defects, drainage, movement indicators, dimensions and material conditions are photographed and referenced.

  4. 04

    Return a useful report

    Observations and priorities are issued in a format suitable for design, maintenance planning or further investigation.

Questions

Common questions

What types of ground stability services do you provide?

Geo Mana delivers slope stabilisation, slip repair, soil nails, ground anchors, rock bolts, mesh and facing systems, difficult access, retaining remediation, drainage, erosion control, field testing, condition assessment and planned slope maintenance. The right combination depends on the ground, design and access.

How do I know if my property needs slope stabilization?

Signs like cracks in the soil, leaning retaining walls, surface erosion, or recent slips are indicators of slope instability. If you're unsure, we can conduct a site inspection to assess the risks and recommend the right solution.

What areas of New Zealand do you operate in?

Geo Mana is based in West Auckland and mobilises across New Zealand. Commercial and specialist crews can deploy nationally; residential work is assessed by scope, access and location.
