About Us
Get The Best Engineering Solutions
For over 12 years, FIL Consulting Engineers has been the trusted engineering partner across Christchurch and beyond.
We combine local knowledge with engineering expertise to deliver practical, compliant, and cost-effective outcomes, whether it’s a single home or a complex development.
Our boutique consultancy is built on responsiveness, precision, and results. When you work with us, you don’t just get a report or design.
You get an engineer who understands what matters and delivers it, on time and on point.
Our Core Services
Structural Engineering
We specialize in structural engineering solutions for both new homes and commercial buildings. Our services cover everything from alterations, seismic assessments (IL2/IL3), and earthquake damage inspections to repair strategies. We also handle PS1 documentation and provide thorough construction monitoring for full compliance.
Civil Engineering
Our civil engineering services include end-to-end site planning and development for residential and commercial projects. We design efficient subdivision layouts and infrastructure networks tailored to local requirements. From stormwater management to wastewater and drainage systems, we ensure every element is practical, compliant, and future-ready.
Geotechnical Engineering
Our geotechnical engineering services begin with detailed site investigations and Scala penetrometer testing to assess soil conditions. We provide accurate foundation designs and bearing capacity reports tailored to each site. Additionally, we deliver expert solutions for retaining walls and slope stability to ensure long-term structural safety.
Construction Monitoring
Our construction monitoring services ensure smooth project execution through end-to-end coordination with architects, builders, and local councils. We oversee compliance, provide site supervision, and maintain high standards throughout. With timely documentation and swift issue resolution, we help keep your build on track and stress-free.
