What Is a Utility Survey?
A utility survey identifies and maps the location of underground utilities such as water, gas, electricity, and telecommunications infrastructure. Conducting a utility survey during the planning and design phase of a project helps prevent accidental utility strikes, reduces delays, and ensures compliance with safety regulations.
Our Survey Techniques
We employ advanced technologies to accurately detect and map underground utilities:
- Radio Detection: Utilizes electromagnetic signals to locate metallic utilities.
- Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR): Employs high-frequency radio waves to detect both metallic and non-metallic utilities, including plastic water and gas pipes, and clay drainage pipes.
These methods allow us to detect services up to 3 meters below ground, providing a comprehensive understanding of the subsurface environment.
Compliance with Industry Standards
Our utility surveys adhere to the British Standards Institution PAS 128:2014 specification for underground utility detection, verification, and location. We collaborate with clients to determine the appropriate Survey Category Type (D to A) and methodologies to ensure the survey meets the required accuracy levels.
