In order to meet the ever-growing requirements of our clients, EOD Contracts has introduced the provision of utility detection and verification to complement our first class EOD/UXO services. We have fully-trained engineers (ProQual Level 3 Certificate in Utility Mapping and Detection) for the location and avoidance of underground services who are available to undertake surveys all over the UK.
What are we offering? As part of our ever-growing arsenal, EOD Contracts Ltd are now able to provide our clients with the following services:
• Utility records – EOD Contracts Ltd can offer full and comprehensive utility records (to PAS 128 industry standards). This “first stage” in the planning process will help to identify all known services and make managing all intrusive investigations much safer across the entirety of the site.
• Borehole, window samples, trial pit clearance & mark-up. Geotechnical investigations are required across a multitude of sites and for multiple purposes. Now EOD Contracts Ltd are able to offer (alongside their UXO risk mitigation) sub-surface utility technology (Electro Magnetic Locators (EML) & Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)). By utilising this technology we can detect and mark up clearance zones around each borehole or trial pit and using our own UXO engineers to fulfill this requirement reduces both costs and manpower.
• Our latest GPR systems can supply onsite real time 3D depth slicing of data enabling a better visulisation of the utilities within the ground. This information can then be instantly emailed as a basic report to be included in Dig permits. Where time allows a more in-depth report can be generated for each position cleared.
• Our EML and GPR data is logged and recorded so that QAQC can be completed of cleared positions, or be reported in various formats allowing our client to view and use the data taken.
