Here for every stage of your development
We provide a range of supporting services that align with our wider expertise in land and soil assessment, planning, and environmental management.
Mineral Safeguarding
Mineral safeguarding ensures that important mineral resources are not needlessly sterilised by non-mineral development. Local planning authorities often require assessments to demonstrate that proposed land use will not conflict with long-term access to underlying minerals.
We can assess whether a site lies within a designated Mineral Safeguarding Area (MSA), determine the presence and significance of any resources, and advise on whether further investigation or consultation is necessary. This helps ensure compliance with local planning policies and reduces the risk of delays in the planning process.
Land Drainage
Effective land drainage is essential for site stability, agricultural productivity, and sustainable development. Poor drainage can lead to waterlogging, erosion, or structural issues over time.
We offer guidance on surface and subsurface water management tailored to site conditions in the form of fieldwork assessment and advisory reports. This may include advising on existing drainage infrastructure, identifying areas of concern, and suggesting practical measures to improve water flow or mitigate risk. Drainage considerations are often a critical part of development layouts, agricultural improvement schemes, and environmental planning.
