Subsidence Services
Subsidence
Subsidence investigations provide critical insight into ground movement and structural stability. Our assessments identify causes such as soil shrinkage, drainage issues or ground conditions, delivering clear findings to support remedial design, risk management and long term asset protection.
Drainage services assess surface and subsurface water conditions to support safe development and infrastructure design. Our surveys identify drainage performance, constraints and risks, helping inform effective drainage strategies and reduce the likelihood of water related ground instability.
Interpretive Reports
Interpretive reports bring together site data, testing results and professional analysis to provide clear, actionable conclusions. Reports are prepared to support planning, design and compliance requirements, ensuring technical findings are communicated accurately to all stakeholders.
Movement Monitoring
Movement monitoring is used to detect and measure ground or structural movement over time. Precise monitoring systems are installed to record changes accurately, providing reliable data to support engineering decisions, risk assessment and ongoing site management.
Root Identification
Root identification services assess the presence and influence of vegetation on ground conditions. Investigations help determine potential impacts on foundations and soil stability, supporting informed decisions for development, subsidence assessment and mitigation planning.
Soil Testing
Soil testing provides detailed information on ground composition, strength and behaviour. Laboratory and in situ testing supports foundation design, pavement construction and risk assessment, ensuring ground conditions are properly understood before construction begins.
Trial Pits & Boreholes
Trial pits and boreholes are used to investigate subsurface conditions and confirm ground profiles. These investigations provide essential data on soil layers, groundwater and obstructions, supporting safe, compliant and cost effective project design.
