Service catalogue

Find the capability your site needs

Some jobs need one crew and one method. Others combine water blasting, vacuum recovery, waste transport and site controls across a shutdown. Start with the specialist service below, or tell us what has to be cleaned, removed or made accessible.

Shutdown and project delivery

Bring several methods into one planned scope when the work window, site access and waste movements need to fit together.

Need a combination unit or drain-cleaning scope?

GSD also lists industrial drain-cleaning and water-recycling equipment. Confirm the drain, pit or pipeline details with the team before selecting a method.

Industrial spill on site?

Call with the substance, location, estimated volume and known hazards. If life or safety is at immediate risk, follow your site emergency plan and call 000 first.

FAQs

Common scoping questions

How do vacuum loading and hydro excavation differ?

Vacuum loading removes material that is already loose or able to flow, such as sludge, slurry or suitable dry product. Hydro excavation first uses pressurised water to loosen soil, then recovers the slurry with a vacuum truck. GSD reviews the material, underground assets and site access before selecting equipment.

Yes, for suitable scopes. GSD can plan water blasting or tank cleaning alongside vacuum recovery, waste transport and documentation. The team checks the waste classification, equipment and receiving facility before confirming a route.

GSD operates from Karratha and supports work across the Pilbara and northern Western Australia. The team confirms travel, crew, equipment, permits and waste logistics for each location and work window.
