What clients say

I have worked with AGS on a number of projects and can't recommend them highly enough. AGS's equipment setup is extremely efficient and effective allowing us to be competitively priced when tendering for work, and ultimately pass on the cost savings to our clients while providing a high level of technical accuracy. On a personal level, Ben is a very professional operator and nothing requested is too big of an issue. Ben has been more than willing to accommodate any changes that have arisen and provide solutions and advise when required. Would recommend them to anyone!

I have used AGS over a period of nearly 20 years on a range of groundwater projects. Their equipment, innovative design, range of pumping depths, rates and ease of use, make them highly efficient and cost effective. AGS are good to work with and very flexible, they are my go to contractor for aquifer pumping tests.

I am pleased to recommend Australian Groundwater Services (AGS) for the test pumping of water bores. I have known AGS Manager Ben Palmer for many years now, and I have involved him in the testing of quite a number of bores. AGS is well set up with a purpose built rig for the installation and retrieval of test pumping equipment, and undertakes test pumping in accordance with AS2368-1990. AGS has all the necessary equipment to manually and digitally log groundwater levels and record flow rates during pumping tests. AGS is "Set & Forget" — just tell Ben what you want and it will be done professionally to a very high standard.
