Pre-Excavation Surveys in North Vancouver

Pre-excavation GPR surveys are insurance against very expensive mistakes. We mobilize for trenching, micro-piling, micro-tunneling, foundation work, anchor drilling and any subsurface intervention where a strike on a live utility or anchor structure would create a project crisis. The work is fast, the cost is small relative to the consequences, and the deliverable is a confidence-grade marked-up site plan that crews can work from with eyes open.
