Your survey should give you information your team can use to make decisions. We combine surveying experience with an understanding of construction and engineering projects to help you plan your next steps.

Work with a team experienced in investigating underground services and subsurface features across construction, development and infrastructure sites.

We consider your proposed works, survey area and required information before recommending the scope and methods.

If your client, engineer or project specification requires PAS 128, we’ll discuss the appropriate survey scope and deliverables before work starts.

Receive drawings and reporting in agreed formats, helping you incorporate the findings into your designs, site plans and project discussions.

From individual development plots to larger infrastructure projects, we support clients across the UK.
If you’ve been asked for a PAS 128 survey, let us know when you enquire.


GPR is one of the technologies used to investigate underground features. PAS 128 sets requirements for how underground utility surveys are planned, carried out and reported.
A PAS 128 Type B detection survey combines utility records, site reconnaissance, GPR and electromagnetic locating, with mapping and reporting that communicates the quality of the findings.
We’ll help you establish the scope your project needs and include it in your quotation.
Not sure whether PAS 128 is required? Send us your project brief or survey specification and we’ll help you understand what to request.

An unexpected pipe, cable or buried obstruction can interrupt work, damage services and lead to expensive changes.
A GPR and utility survey helps your team:
Investigate buried services before excavation.
Identify potential conflicts with proposed designs.
Plan groundworks using better site information.
Reduce the risk of avoidable disruption and redesign.
Identify areas that may need further investigation.
Whether you’re preparing for a development, installing new services or planning excavation, understanding underground conditions helps you make better decisions.


Ground Penetrating Radar can help investigate metallic and non-metallic utilities and other buried features.
Depending on the site and survey scope, this can include:
Water pipes and drainage.
Electricity cables and service routes.
Gas pipes.
Telecommunications ducts.
Buried structures, obstructions and possible voids.
For utility mapping, we combine GPR with complementary methods such as electromagnetic locating to build a more useful picture of the site.
Detection depends on ground conditions, the material and depth of the target, and access to the survey area. We explain relevant limitations so your team understands how to use the findings.

Send your site location, survey boundary and proposed works. Include a site plan if available, along with your required completion date.

We’ll discuss your requirements, access arrangements and required outputs so you know what the survey will cover.

Following the agreed survey work, we provide mapping and reporting to help your team assess underground constraints and plan the works ahead.

A Ground Penetrating Radar survey uses radar signals to investigate features beneath the surface without excavating the survey area. Surveyors interpret the data to identify potential utilities, structures and other features relevant to the project.
They are related, but different. GPR is a detection technology. PAS 128 is a specification for underground utility surveying. GPR forms part of a PAS 128 detection survey alongside other methods and information.
Yes. Select this when requesting your quote, or send us your survey specification. We’ll agree the appropriate scope before the work begins.
The price depends on the survey area, site conditions, access, required outputs and whether a PAS 128-compliant utility survey is needed. Send us your site details for a quotation.
Tell us when you need the survey results. We’ll review your requirements and confirm availability, the anticipated survey duration and when the agreed outputs can be delivered.
No survey can guarantee that every service will be detected. Ground conditions and the characteristics of buried features affect detection. Survey findings should be used alongside the stated limitations, appropriate verification and safe excavation procedures.
Yes. We can discuss combining utility mapping with a topographical survey to give your team information about both surface features and underground services.
Tell us where your site is, what you’re planning and when you need the results.
Whether you need GPR investigation, underground utility mapping or a PAS 128-compliant survey, we’ll help you establish the right scope.
