California’s exquisite natural beauty was created by its extravagant and diverse geologic history.  The complete Geologic Rock Cycle is depicted within our State by the formation of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Great Valley, Mohave Desert and the formation of many other ranges including the Cascades, Transverse, Peninsular and Coast Ranges through repeated cycles of volcanism, metamorphism, sedimentation and glaciation.  This plethora of geologic settings coupled with the placement of active fault zones throughout the State provides the highest probability for immediate and long-term geologic hazards.  These geologic hazards include failure of natural and anthropogenic structures due to the following:  earthquakes, landslides, liquefaction, differential settlement, lateral spreading, ground lurching, expansive soil, tsunamis, flooding and erosion.  We are keenly aware of these hazards and work closely with our Clients and regulatory agencies to reduce and minimize the effects of potential geologic hazards on real properties through our geologic expertise.  GeoSolve® provides the following quality geological services:
