Underground Service Investigations
Our structured investigation process enables us to identify, locate and report existing underground services during the planning, design, and construction phases of your project.
3D Ground Penetrating Radar
Utilising our Mala 3D Imaging Radar Array (MIRA) we can undertake large scale 3D mapping of underground services and geological features such as bedrock, voids or soil strata layers
Structural Investigations
We provide Structural Investigations utilising concrete scanning radar and other geophysical methods to identify reinforcement, in slab services, footings, defects and dimensions
ATCO Critical Asset Supervision
Our ATCO Approved Locators can assist with the location and supervision of works around the ATCO
Critical Infrastructure Assets including high pressure gas pipelines.

Utility Location & Mapping
We employ a range of technologies and methods to locate and map existing underground services including Electro-Magnetic Location, 2D & 3D Ground Penetrating Radar, Magnetic Location and CCTV Inspection.
Non-destructive Vacuum Excavation
We utilise non-destructive hydro-Vacuum excavation and hand excavation methods to clean out service pits and to expose underground services
Concrete Scanning
Concrete scanning utilises high frequency radar to locate in slab services, conduits, reinforcement, defects and dimensions. We use the Proceq GP8000 & GP8800 Palm/hand held concrete scanners and Mala GX750 high frequency radar systems.
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) uses electromagnetic pulses to image underground services or features and can be used to locate non-conductive services such as plastic water pipes that can't be located with electromagnetic location methods.
Electromagnetic Location
Electro-magnetic location uses electro-magnetic frequencies to trace conductive services such as electrical cables and metal pipes. Traceable rods and sondes can also be inserted into non-conductive conduits to enable tracing.
CCTV Inspection
Electro-magnetic location uses electro-magnetic frequencies to trace conductive services such as electrical cables and metal pipes. Traceable rods and sondes can also be inserted into non-conductive conduits to enable tracing.
Drainage Investigations
Our Structured drainage investigations utilise visual inspection, electromagnetic location, CCTV Inspection, acoustic, dye tracing, asset documentation and surveying to provide detailed drainage configuration information.
Reporting and Deliverables
We pride ourselves on the quality of our deliverables and provide highly detailed services drawings overlaid on aerial imagery, detailed technical reports, spreadsheets, and asset documentation records. We quality check all deliverables prior to issue so you can have confidence in the information provided.
Asset Documentation
We provide photographic and technical asset documentation of service pits, chambers and other services infrastructure. Our detailed record cards show conduit and pipe configurations dimensions and other attribute information.
Magnetic Location
Magnetic Location uses metal detectors to locate buried service pits, chambers, footings, valves or other buried metallic infrastructure. We have a range of equipment that can locate features up to 5m below the surface.
Cutting, Coring, & Remediation
We provide concrete, bitumen cutting and coring services to enable non-destructive excavation below pavements to visually validate services. We have a range of equipment including core drills, quick cut saws, demolition breakers, plate compactors, generators, and other tools to reinstate bitumen, concrete or paving after excavation.
