Getting a ground investigation carried out is advisable before any structural work that involves breaking the soil or altering existing foundations. During our design or reporting process we may advise that a ground assessment or investigation is required.
Whether you plan to build, restore, or maintain structural footings/foundations – you need to inspect what lies beneath first.
Versatile ground testing – low disturbance, in-situ or detailed ground assessment investigation
Below are some of the ground and site investigation services that can be completed:
- Trial pit analysis
- Initial soil analysis
- Borehole inspection
- Tree and plant root assessment
- Ground Investigation Reports (GIR)
- Geotechnical Design Reports (GDR)
It is likely that some of these investigations will be required as part of a design process. For instance, when completing our design of your structural basement, rear extension or loft conversion we are likely to request a soil investigation from a geotechnical company.
We can meet any domestic structural engineering ground investigation needs you may have.
