Our Civil Engineering Services
-
Stormwater & Drainage Design
Effective drainage planning is essential for protecting your site from flooding and satisfying council requirements. We prepare detailed stormwater drainage designs that consider runoff control, pipe networks, pits, legal point of discharge (LPOD), and topographical conditions unique to your property. Our designs are drafted to meet Australian standards and local authority expectations.
-
On-Site Detention (OSD) & Runoff Control
Many Victorian councils require on-site detention (OSD) systems to manage peak stormwater discharge. We design compliant OSD systems — including tanks, pits and attenuation structures — that control runoff, reduce flooding risk on your property, and help streamline planning approvals.
-
Residential & Subdivision Civil Design
From single houses and dual occupancies to small multi-unit sites and subdivisions, we provide end-to-end civil engineering design services that integrate site grading, road frontage works, pavement layouts, crossovers and drainage infrastructure.
-
Council Approval & Compliance Support
Civil engineering documentation forms a core part of planning and building permit applications. We prepare engineering reports, design statements, compliance checklists and coordinate with local councils to ensure your documentation satisfies regulatory requirements — reducing the likelihood of revisions or delays.

What Does our Client Say?
VVT Engineering offer quick, efficient services!
VVT Engineering offer quick, efficient services with great communication directly from the engineer and admin staff. I was very impressed with the customisable solution provided for a couple of our more complex tasks (Frustratingly) set out by our building surveyor, however it was ZERO issue for Viney the Engineer to resolve promptly! Thank you Viney, Kriti and VVT for your professional and reliable abilities reducing our stresses involved with our first ever building process!
Highly recommend for anyone needing expert engineering service!
I worked with VVT Engineering on a structural issue in one of my buildings, and I’m extremely impressed with their service. Their team was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough in assessing and addressing the problem. They provided clear solutions, kept me informed throughout, and completed the work on time and within budget. Thanks to VVT Engineering, my building is now safe and ready for renovation. Highly recommend them for anyone needing expert engineering services!
Great Service!!
I contacted VVT Engineering about getting a Scope of Works drawn up. Kriti, the General Manager, was very helpful and understood what i was needing. She took the time to understand completely what i was asking and was very helpful. The next morning at 10.00am the Engineer arrived to do the Scope of Works, be was very thorough on the inspection of site, took his time so as to be very particular, he was very professional and polite. Three days later i received the written Report and Full Scope of Works drawn up. Attention to detail was excellent. Very very good communication at all times and very reasonably priced. I thoroughly recommend VVT Engineering and very happy with my experience of hiring these guys. Would definitely use their services again.
