Utility Mapping Surveys
Get in TouchAt Portsmouth Surveys, we conduct utility mapping surveys to identify and document underground utilities such as electrical cables, gas pipelines, and water mains. Our techniques include ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electromagnetic location, ensuring precise mapping.
We cater to construction companies, architects, and local councils, delivering clear and comprehensive utility maps that help prevent costly project delays. Contact us today to discuss your requirements and request a quote.
How Much Does Utility Mapping Cost?
Utility mapping typically costs between £350 and £700 per survey. This pricing depends on factors like site size, complexity, and survey detail required.
Our experienced team uses ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electromagnetic locators to ensure comprehensive and accurate mapping of subsurface utilities. Factors such as the depth and density of utilities, as well as accessibility issues, can influence the final cost.
We adhere to PAS 128 standards, which ensure the precision and reliability of our surveys. Detailed topographical surveys may also be integrated to provide a complete view of surface and subsurface features.
Our utility mapping helps prevent costly utility strikes during construction by providing detailed information on existing infrastructure. For a more precise quote, please get in touch with our specialists today.
