Site investigations and Ground Investigations are conducted to establish ground conditions and the composition of the ground beneath a development site before construction starts. Site investigations are required to determine soil and rock’s engineering properties and how they will interact with the sites development plan. Earth Environmental & Geotechnical provides a comprehensive range of site investgations to support planning permission requirements.

A Flood Risk Assessment, also known as a FRA, is a report that details the main flood risks to a development site. The FRA is frequently needed as part of the planning application for a development
Most of the land that was once used for industry in this country laid redundant for many years. But where demand for residential and commercial property is high, and available green spaces are low, brownfield sites have become an increasingly popular development opportunity. Brownfield land is seen as a great development option and everyone is keen to see brownfield sites brought back to life. Contact us for Geotechnical Site Investigation Services.
