Many of the existing mains networks are ageing and deteriorating and so it's often the case that pipe routes are not mapped, or over time their location has been lost. We provide a complete surveying and mapping service and this is the first step in being able to correctly assess and manage your network and needs. 

Once the pipework is located, the next step would be to understand the condition and serviceability of the existing network. Pipe sampling and non-destructive techniques are available to enable accurate external and internal assessments to be made. With this information, a design and build project can be established that meets your specific needs, targeting the areas of concern within the network. 

Whether your need for asset renewal is reactive or proactive, we have multiple techniques which can be mobilised to meet your specific needs. Often projects can require a number of different techniques to provide the most efficient overall solution. 

Ground conditions, surfaces, customer impact and environmental needs can all drive a need to explore trenchless technologies to minimise the impact of works. We can deploy small diameter impact moling for services and directional drilling for larger diameter pipework and these techniques can provide solutions where excavation is difficult. This could be used to avoid the excavation of a driveway or to cross major roads or rivers. Both techniques greatly reduce the need for excavation down to a launch and reception pit. These pits vary in size due to pipe size and technique.
