When planning construction, excavation, or redevelopment projects, knowing what lies beneath the surface is crucial. GPR surveys provide a non-invasive, highly detailed method for detecting buried features, helping you avoid costly disruptions and safety hazards.
GPR Surveys
The method for GPR coverage is to scan the entire site in a grid pattern, record the images, and then post-process the information using specialist software. A full report or an annotated site plan is then be drawn up to the client’s specification detailing the findings on the target features.
GPR Surveys can be used to investigate an array of buried features, including, but not limited to:
- Voids
- Buried structures
- Underground fuel/utility tanks
- Non-metallic utilities (plastic/fibre optic services)
- Pile cap

How We Can Help You
GPR surveys are non-destructive, which means we conduct surveys without causing damage to your structure or the environment.
GPR can detect underground utilities, both metallic and non-metallic, such as water, gas, and electrics. Discovering the likes of these on your site can save your project from utility strikes and unwanted accidents.
