Geoconsultancy
Our team are proactive problem solvers driven by the carbon challenge we face and the here and now of the climate crisis.
Our geoconsultancy services are led by a team of geologists, engineers and environmental scientists whose expertise spans geotechnical and geoenvironmental consultancy, soil health and material management.
They are active listeners and proactive problem solvers who are driven by the carbon challenge we face and the here and now of the climate crisis.
Our trusted experts recognise the connectivity between soil function, material reuse, soil health and biodiversity, all of which positively contribute to the low carbon agenda.
A sound understanding of ground conditions and soil properties is key to developing integrated and sustainable solutions that demonstrate care for the planet, people and place equally.
Soil health, nutrient neutrality, carbon sink capacity and managing the legacy of contamination from historical industrial uses are of pivotal importance for our planet and its future generations. That’s why we believe soil-led spatial planning needs to be integral to the regenerative design process of today.
We believe that effective collaboration of the technical disciplines within project teams optimises soil functions, which is critical to system thinking in the built environment.
The services we provide:
Geotechnical Consultancy
- Feasibility studies
- GI design and specification
- Interpretative reports for design
- Design (limited at this stage)
