Increasing awareness and environmental concerns, and the growing potential for landowner, developer or financier liability has highlighted the importance of due diligence investigations.

We work closely with clients, providing specialist advice and assistance to meet their specific needs.  We can develop cost effective, site specific solutions for a wide range of potential contaminants, while guiding clietns throught he legislative framework and liaising directly with local authorities.

We can assist with projects on any scale, from localised spills associated with for example sheep dips or buried fuel tanks for example, to large industrial sites with numerous potential sources or pesticide contamination, associated with redevelopment of former horticultural land.

Well documented treatment of formerly contaminated sites allays concerns raised by potential purchasers and aids achievement of compliance with local authorities.
