Better understanding what lies beneath a proposed development gives you a massive advantage when considering your CDM / H&S requirements assisting design concepts, planning and on site activities.
By providing a comprehensive utility drawing showing accurate position, type and depth of services in relation to design features such as foundations or proposed service routes this facility:
- Reduces time spent on site
- Reduces risk of harm from service strikes
- Lowers project costs
- Allows better under standing for service adoptions and diversions
- Gives less time spent with line and highways adoptions
- Reduces disruption to pedestrians and road / rail users
Utility surveys locate underground services. From sourcing statutory plans right through to full services investigation using cutting-edge technology such as Ground Probing Radar (GPR), Loy Surveys can deliver. Failure to establish an accurate position of a buried utility or other potential hazard is not only detrimental to the costing of a project but has a far more serious implication when considering health and safety issues.
