Happy birthday to us! Today marks 20 years of Durkin Construction and we're feeling pretty chuffed about it. Our courageous leaders, Sean and Jane Durkin, established the company on 1 May 2003, and let us tell you, it has been one heck of a journey!

The Northern Beaches B-Line project implemented by Transport for NSW saw the creation of a high-frequency bus service connecting the Northern Beaches to the Sydney CBD, providing a faster and more reliable public transport option for commuters.

In February 2017, Sydney experienced a major storm incident, which saw a month’s worth of rain (nearly 50mm) fall in just one hour. This resulted in flash flooding and extensive damage across the city.

To assist the University of Sydney with the planning and construction of new laboratories, Durkin conducted a Utility Drainage and Topography Survey, concurrently with the LIDAR scans on the existing building.

To reduce the risk to your crew, your project timeline and budget, your reputation and that of your company, Sean Durkin recommends investing in a service that employs all available techniques for subsurface locating.

Despite a range of challenges including COVID restrictions on our Paddington heritage site project, we delivered outputs earlier than expected, within budget, and made a bonus discovery to benefit the client.

Why is it important to invest in pavement investigation before the construction of new roads or rehabilitation treatment?
