A large proportion of our workload comprises ground investigations, and we work on a wide range of projects.
From our office in Newark, we carry out ground investigations throughout the UK, and we have recently worked in Inverness in the north, Pembrokeshire in the west down to Kent in the south and east. We can work on any size of project, from simple investigations for house extensions, to large complex investigations that require an array of different exploratory methods.
Our extensive knowledge of ground investigations allows us to provide the optimum scope of investigation and most appropriate exploratory technique for each project including-
- hand auger
- dynamic probing
- cable percussive boring
- Cone Penetrometer Testing
- machine dug trial pits
- window sampling
- rotary (open hole and core drilling)
- geophysical techniques
Our investigations can be designed to cover just geotechnical issues, solely contaminated land requirements or, as is usually the case, will deal with both of these important aspects of the development process. By combining geotechnical and geoenvironmental investigations we avoid duplication of work, and the associated extra cost of effectively carrying out an investigation twice.
