What we offer

Our Specialist Testing Services

BRE365 Tests

Our BRE365 percolation testing service follows the official Building Research Establishment (BRE) Digest 365 guidelines. We measure soil infiltration rates to determine whether a soakaway drainage system is suitable for your site, helping you design systems that effectively manage surface water runoff.

Soakaway Tests

Our soakaway tests provide the data needed to design drainage systems that prevent flooding and waterlogging. We calculate infiltration rates, groundwater conditions, and soil permeability to recommend the best soakaway size and structure for your project.

Ground Investigation

Before any construction or drainage work, understanding your ground conditions is essential. We offer comprehensive site investigations, including trial pits and soil profiling, to ensure your drainage and soakaway systems are designed with confidence and precision.
