Over 30 years of Remedial Engineering Experience

At SW Consult, we are more than engineers, we are problem solvers who bring certainty to complex building challenges. We’ve specialised in forensic and remedial engineering, uncovering the real causes of defects and delivering solutions that last. Our expertise spans waterproofing failures, façade deterioration, concrete cancer, glazing defects, balcony remediation, and large-scale refurbishments.

We offer complete services including defect audits, technical reports, specifications, tender management, contract administration, and project superintendency. Independent and objective, we don’t sell products or quick fixes, we protect assets and deliver cost-effective, long-term outcomes. We are trusted by body corporates, strata managers, property owners, and local governments across South East Queensland and Northern NSW.

At our core is a collaborative, family-friendly culture built on integrity and professionalism. For us, engineering isn’t just about structures. It’s about people, trust, and creating confidence in the places we live and work.
