Well it might seem so, but drilling
allows us to inspect and test the ground.
Why would
you want to do that?
Knowing what is under a site is
vital. Is it strong enough for building on? Is it free from contamination?
Are there mining problems or underground gases?
Who do
you normally work for?
Anyone, from an individual householder
with a subsidence problem through Architects and Consulting Engineers,
to major multi-national Companies.
Do you
check out Brownfield sites?
Investigation of contaminated land
and landfill gas forms a large part of our work from a desk study
through to comprehensive investigations, laboratory testing and risk
assessments.
What about
any interesting projects?
See our Projects list here.
One project was to check out a former explosives factory, which
was to be developed as a caravan site. A specialist who had just
returned from Kosovo assisted us.
The job was carried out successfully; in fact it went down a bomb!
