GEOTECHNICAL & ENVIRONMENTAL EXPERTISE IN STOCKPORT
Stockport has a long industrial history and a varied built environment, with sites ranging from former mills and previously developed urban land to residential developments and more open sites around the edges of the borough.
Historic land uses and potential contamination can all influence whether a site is suitable for development. Ground conditions also vary across the borough, so an investigation should be designed around the location, history and proposed use of each site rather than relying on general assumptions.
Our Stockport team helps clients identify these issues at an early stage, giving project teams the information they need to make informed decisions before planning, purchasing land or beginning construction.
Our local Stockport services include:
- Phase 1 Desk Studies and preliminary risk assessments
- Phase 2 intrusive site and ground investigations
- Geotechnical assessments and foundation recommendations
- Contaminated land investigations and remediation strategies
- Soil sampling and laboratory analysis
- Ground gas monitoring and risk assessment
- Topographical and land surveys
- Flood risk and drainage assessments
- Ecology and habitat surveys
- Coal Mining Risk Assessments where relevant to the site
We support projects throughout Stockport town centre and across areas including Reddish, Brinnington, Bredbury, Romiley, Marple, Hazel Grove, Bramhall, Cheadle, Cheadle Hulme, Heald Green, Edgeley and the Heatons.
