Desk study
The first step for every site: what the history says might be in the ground. Fixed fee, 10 working days (example prices).
What we look at
A desk study reads the history of the site before anyone opens the ground.

Old maps
Every edition back to the first survey, to see the tanks, pits and works that came and went
Records
Landfill, pollution incidents, permits and boreholes from the public registers
Geology and water
What the ground is made of and where the groundwater and streams are
Walkover
A visit with photos: stains, tanks, fill, smells and anything the maps missed
The report
A conceptual site model: where a problem could be, and how it could reach people or water
Send us the site address
We check the old maps and the planning record before we reply, so the quote fits the site. Most quotes go out within two working days (sample).
