Proven and Effective GPR Ferro Scanning in Essex

Ferro scan

Avoid drilling through important utility services, structural supports or pipework in your Essex property! Hire the specialists at Southern Drilling to undertake GPR ferro scanning. 

Working throughout the South East, including Essex, we use the most accurate and effective Ground Penetrating Radar and Proceq scanning equipment on the market today, the GP8800 and GP8000, to ensure that you know every hidden aspect and detail of the structure before any drilling, coring or design work takes place.

Before carrying out any drilling or structural changes at your Essex property, it is absolutely vital that you know exactly where important structural features and other pipework reinforcement is located, along with any utility services. Our high quality and accurate GPR Proceq scanning equipment will tell you exactly that. Able to quickly and accurately locate and identify all kinds of objects in natural ground, bridge decks, pavements and concrete, our GPR scanning equipment means you can be safe in the knowledge that you are nowhere near important pipework, utility services or vital structural supports.

HOW WILL GPR FERRO SCANNING BENEFIT YOU?

For example, if you know exactly what is in the slab, column, ground or wall and where it is located, you will avoid hitting any steel reinforcing, structural supports, pipework or services. This prevention method is absolutely essential to make sure that costs are kept to an absolute minimum and the health and safety of all involved is prioritised. 

HOW DOES THE GPR FERRO SCAN WORK?

Utilising pulse technology, the GP8000 and GP8800, manufactured by industry experts Proceq, detects anything in the required slab, wall or ground area and provides expert data analysis, evaluation and report generation that is visible in the field, including a 3D augmented reality view, raw data view or a rotatable 3D image post scan on an iPad. This will also include a fully generated report that is sent back to the office. Downloaded information can then be used to create detailed documents with diagrams and data for analysis by our GPR engineers in real time.
