Company
Overview
1989
Year Established
The company was founded in 1989 as a specialist investigation and remediation consultancy.
£1.9 billion
Group Turnover
The company is financially embedded within a group that achieves a £1.9 billion turnover.
Over the decades it has woven geotechnical engineering, contaminated land assessment, geophysics and waste management under one roof, serving both public and private sector clients.
Typically commissioned for complex projects—such as large-scale site investigations, risk assessments, river culvert inspections and landfill redevelopment—teams mobilise rapidly across 12 UK offices.
The business grew organically and through strategic acquisitions (including Leap Environmental, Carbon Zero Consulting and geophysics/topo teams), broadening its technical depth and geographic reach.
Specialising in sectors like property development, utilities infrastructure and water projects, it crafts tailored subsurface strategies for sustainable land use.
Standout fact: its rebrand consolidated multiple acquired identities into a unified brand known for technical excellence in geoenvironmental delivery.
