Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) scanning

Trace Surveys offers advanced Ground Penetrating Radar surveys as part of our comprehensive utility mapping and defect diagnosis services. Using cutting-edge GPR technology, we provide accurate subsurface imaging that reveals hidden features without any excavation or disruption to your property.

What is Ground Penetrating Radar?

GPR is a non-destructive testing method that uses electromagnetic pulses to create detailed images of subsurface structures. Our scientific and methodical approach removes the guesswork from underground investigations, giving you clear, unbiased information for informed decision-making.

Our GPR Survey Applications

Our experienced surveyors use GPR technology to:

  • Locate Underground Utilities – Map water pipes, electrical cables, gas lines, and telecommunications infrastructure
  • Detect Voids and Cavities – Identify potential sinkholes, underground storage tanks, or structural defects
  • Archaeological Investigations – Discover buried foundations, walls, or historical features
  • Concrete Scanning – Locate rebar, post-tension cables, and conduits within concrete structures
  • Leak Detection Support – Complement our trace gas and thermal imaging techniques for comprehensive leak investigations

Why Choose Trace Surveys for GPR?

With our extensive knowledge of buildings, materials, and underground services, we deliver more than just data collection. Our GPR surveys include:

  • High-resolution subsurface imaging
  • Detailed CAD drawings and 3D mapping
  • Expert interpretation of results
  • Clear reporting with actionable recommendations
  • Integration with our other diagnostic services

The Trace Advantage

As specialists in building defect diagnosis and compliance testing, we understand that GPR surveys are often just one piece of the puzzle. Our multi-disciplinary approach means we can combine GPR with thermal imaging, acoustic testing, or trace gas detection to provide comprehensive solutions.

Our non-invasive surveys minimize disruption to your operations while delivering the accurate information that surveyors, builders, insurers, and property managers rely on. Whether you’re planning construction work, investigating subsurface problems, or conducting due diligence, our GPR surveys provide the clarity you need.
