    Frequently asked questions

    Do I need to conduct earthwork testing on my site?

    Yes. Current legislation dictates that every site must have a full environmental investigation carried out prior to commencing any development. This investigation must include earthwork testing and subsequent analysis. It is required for the removal of any soils or muck away from the proposed site.

    I don’t know what contaminants are at my site, can you still provide earthworks testing in Kent?

    If you are unsure which contaminants may be present at your site, we can carry out generic earthworks testing in Kent.

    I have undeveloped greenfield land; can you provide earthworks testing in Kent?

    Yes, we can provide earthworks testing in Kent for undeveloped greenfield lands. While contamination is more prevalent on brownfield sites, contaminants can still occur on undeveloped greenfield land. Undeveloped greenfield land may not have been tested for contamination yet, so we recommend soil testing for peace of mind.
