Windowless sampling services

Practical shallow ground investigation for development, design and assessment

Windowless sampling is a widely used ground investigation method for obtaining soil samples and identifying ground conditions at shallow depths. It can support geotechnical and environmental assessments, foundation design, drainage planning and general site investigation requirements.

Practical site investigation, clear communication

What the service can provide

Windowless sampling can help establish the general ground profile and provide samples for inspection, logging or laboratory testing where required by the project team.
The information gathered can assist engineers, consultants and designers in understanding the ground beneath a site before construction or further design work proceeds.
