Utility Mapping (PAS 128 Standard)

Why Choose Our PAS 128-Compliant Utility Mapping Services?

Our utility mapping services adhere to PAS 128, the recognised standard for mapping underground utilities in the UK. This standard ensures that surveys are conducted with consistent accuracy and methodology, providing clients with a reliable foundation for planning and excavation. By following PAS 128 guidelines, we help clients avoid costly and time-consuming slit trenching wherever possible. Key benefits include:

• Enhanced Accuracy: Our PAS 128-compliant surveys deliver precise information on underground utilities, minimising risks during construction and excavation.
• Reduced Intrusive Investigations: By using advanced detection methods, we limit the need for disruptive slit trenching, saving time and cost.
• Compliance with Industry Standards: Our adherence to PAS 128 ensures a consistent, high-quality approach to utility mapping, meeting the demands of regulatory authorities and project stakeholders.

Advanced Technology for Non-Intrusive Utility Mapping

Our team uses cutting-edge technology and specialised equipment to detect, locate, and map underground utilities. Through methods such as ground-penetrating radar (GPR), electromagnetic locators, and other non-intrusive techniques, we identify the precise locations of pipes, cables, and other subsurface assets. Our surveys provide detailed and accurate utility data that supports project planning, risk assessment, and regulatory compliance.
