Welcome to Geo Site Surveys

We specialize in dynamic soil sampling, diamond coring/cutting and offer the following services:

• We can now offer a totally unique Electrical powered drilling unit which is capable of Windowless sampling, SPT’s etc, the same as a diesel/petrol powered rig - but, (being electric) it does not produce any fumes.
• Windowless sampling (soil samples are recovered in plastic liners) up to 10 metres depth can be achieved using a tracked Archway Dart rig.
• Dynamic probing up to 15 metres deep to BS1377:1990
• SPT’S (Soil penetration testing using open drive shoe) & SPT(C) (Solid Cone) for sand/gravels.
• Hand Held sampling for low head room or confined areas were the tracked rig will not fit. Using a hydraulic hammer to drive the samples into the strata.
• Concrete coring off the rig for drilling on hard standing.
• Stand alone diamond coring unit (electric powered) for hole up to 350mm diameters & to a depth of 1.5metres.
• Wall coring to determine the thickness and condition on bridges, pylons etc.
• Wall chasing, floor sawing, open cut and break out in concrete, brick, block etc.
• Hand dug trial pits to expose footings, utilities etc.
• Utility underground surveys prior to drilling/coring or to determine were the services are located.
• GPR (ground probing radar) to determine plastic services IE:  water, gas pipes etc.
• Water/gas well installations for on going monitoring.
• SVS Surveys (soil vapour surveys) to determine gas presence before drilling on Petroleum service stations etc.

GSS can offer either a single day’s soil sampling (on day rates) or a fixed/term rate for medium to larger size projects. Please contact us for a quote and we will be pleased to discuss your requirements.
