Geoenvironmental Services

Our Integrated Geoenvironmental Services:

We identify and manage ground-related risks to unlock your site’s true potential and ensure a smooth path to regulatory compliance. Our services form the foundation of successful, safe, and sustainable development.

1. Phase 1 Desk Studies & Preliminary Risk Assessment Before breaking ground, we conduct thorough desktop research into your site’s history, geology, and environmental setting. This crucial first step identifies potential liabilities and informs the scope of any required physical investigation, saving you time and money.

2. Phase 2 Intrusive Site Investigations Our team of chartered geologists and environmental scientists design and manage targeted physical investigations. We utilise advanced soil and groundwater sampling techniques to accurately characterise the ground conditions and quantify any contamination.

3. Ground Risk Assessment & Mitigation Design We provide detailed quantitative risk assessments (DQRAs) for all potential hazards, ensuring your development is safe for end-users and the environment.

• Contaminated Land: Assessing risks to human health and controlled waters (groundwater and rivers) from soil and water contamination.

• Ground Gas & Vapour: Specialising in the assessment and mitigation design for hazardous gases such as methane, carbon dioxide, radon, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

4. Remediation Strategies & Verification Where contamination presents an unacceptable risk, we don’t just identify the problem—we design the solution. We develop practical, cost-effective remediation strategies that are seamlessly executed by our own civil engineering teams. Afterwards, our consulting division provides the independent verification reports required to discharge planning conditions.
