Contaminated Land Surveys

Desktop Surveys and Soil surveys

We can complete a contaminated land phase 1 desktop survey risk assessment to BS:10175. This can also be done as part of an environmental permit application (H5), planning condition or property purchase using the Source -Pathway – Receptor model approved by the Environment Agency. If you need to proceed to a Phase 2 intrusive investigation we can scope the survey and furthermore suggest what to sample for.

We can help with groundwater risk assessments and all aspects of soil condition reports.

How we can help

Contact us to scope your contaminated land survey and to help discharge your planning condition. You may need help to support your environmental permit application. Paul Downing & Associates also provides services to property developers and land agents as well as banks and property institutions. We can therefore help you make sound financial judgements on property acquisitions based on environmental risk. Call us to help scope you assessment and provide guidance on your next industrial purchase or help with your planning application or environmental permit application support.

I have no hesitation in recommending Paul's excellent, expert and thorough service.

After several failed attempts trying to deal with the EA ourselves, we eventually employed Paul to complete our ELV permit transfer from a previous site owner. His consultancy service was professional and resulted in the EA completing a successful transfer of ownership from the previous owner to us.

Paul helped us with a waste permit transfer to our operations from another waste management company when we took over a neighbouring site. The transfer went smoothly and I would recommend Paul's services in dealing with the Environment Agency.
