Geotechnical reporting services

Comprehensive geotechnical reporting is crucial for understanding subsurface conditions and making informed decisions in construction and engineering projects. Geotechnical reporting involves the detailed documentation and analysis of data collected from various geotechnical investigations, such as soil testing, borehole drilling, in-situ testing, and laboratory analysis. These reports provide critical insights into soil and rock properties, groundwater conditions, and potential geotechnical challenges, forming the foundation for safe and effective construction practices. Our team includes Chartered Engineers, geologists, site engineers and technicians, all of whom have extensive experience in the production of reports. We offer:

  • Desk studies
  • Factual geotechnical reports
  • Interpretive geotechnical reports
  • Environmental reports
Geotechnical reporting

What we do

A desk study is a preliminary phase in geotechnical investigations where we gather and review existing information to understand the subsurface conditions of a site before any fieldwork is conducted. This critical step helps us assess potential risks and challenges, ensuring that our subsequent investigations are focused and efficient.

A geotechnical report is a comprehensive document that provides detailed information on the subsurface conditions of a site based on our investigations and analyses. These reports are essential for informing design and construction decisions, ensuring safety, and addressing potential geotechnical risks.

An interpretive geotechnical report goes beyond presenting raw data; it provides a comprehensive analysis and interpretation of subsurface conditions to support informed decision-making for your construction or development project. This type of report combines field data with expert analysis to deliver actionable insights tailored to your specific site and project needs.

Environmental geotechnical reports are specialised documents that assess and document the environmental conditions of a site as they relate to geotechnical factors. These reports provide critical insights into how environmental issues can impact the geotechnical stability and suitability of a site for development or construction.
