Ground/site investigation
We arrange and undertake cable percussive boreholes, trial pits, in situ testing. The data can then be reported factually or interpreted for use in project
Contamination investigation & Remediation
Geoenvironmental phase one and two studies and investigations carried out cost effectively and diligently. Sample testing and reporting.
Planning permission
Assistance in producing planning applications can be provided. Including application completion, collation and drafting of drawings, local research to help with a smooth application.
Desk Studies
For any development, anywhere, the information revealed will inform the whole project. A good desk study should save on project & Ground Investigation cost.
Foundations
Once site ground conditions are identified, appropriate foundations can be chosen. These can then be designed such that the most economical solution is used.
Soakaways
Soakaways designed to BRE 365 and to comply with the requirements of the building regulations, including the testing to inform the design.
Earthworks
We can effectively design and specify earthworks and help supervise them such that they are independently verified.
