Prior to carrying out a GPR survey, we always recommend carrying out a desktop utility record search to obtain the statutory record information for the site, particularly if there is a possibility of public utilities passing through the site boundary.
Desktop Utility Record Search
Utility Records
Collates existing data from all major utility providers.
Service Mapping
Delivers a clear visual of underground service locations
Electricity
Identifies HV & LV electricity mains in the project area.
Communications
Includes telecoms and fibre optic cable locations.
When you commission a Desktop Utility Record Search, our experienced team contacts all relevant utility providers operating within your specified area. We gather and compile existing utility records, providing a clear and comprehensive overview of any buried services that may impact your project.
In cases where utility providers confirm no buried services in the area, we include this information to give you a full picture of underground networks. These records are invaluable for identifying utilities that may not be easily accessible or locatable during on-site surveys. If certain services cannot be physically detected on-site, our desktop utility records help fill in the gaps, ensuring the most complete and accurate assessment possible.
