GPR Surveys

Vista Civil Engineering provides GPR surveys (Ground Penetrating Radar) to identify underground utilities and subsurface features prior to excavation or construction.
‍
Understanding what lies beneath the surface is critical to avoiding service strikes, delays and costly design changes. Vista uses GPR technology to provide clear, reliable data that supports safer and more efficient project delivery.

Detecting Underground Services

GPR surveys are used to locate and map:

• Buried utilities (gas, water, electric and telecoms)
• Unknown obstructions and redundant services
• Voids and subsurface anomalies
• Ground conditions affecting construction

This allows risks to be identified early and mitigated before works begin.

Reducing Risk Before Construction

By carrying out GPR surveys, Vista helps clients to:

• Improve site safety during excavation
• Reduce the risk of service strikes
• Improve design accuracy and planning
• Avoid delays and unexpected costs

This approach ensures projects are better informed from the outset.
