GPR Surveys – The Latest GPR Equipment

Subvision Surveys has decades of expertise and continues to invest in the latest GPR equipment. Over the years, we have built an extensive client base across a wide range of industries. We take pride in delivering the highest standards of customer service and are regarded as one of the most respected and trusted utility surveying companies in the UK.

Our advanced GPR Surveys systems send high-frequency radio waves subsurface to achieve the most accurate results. Our expert team records variations via the antenna as these waves reflect back and notify us upon hitting buried objects or utility services. GPR surveys are effective in locating buried services, voids, tanks, obstructions, and much more.

GPR Surveys – The Advantages

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) surveys offer significant advantages as they are non-invasive and non-destructive, allowing detailed subsurface imaging without disrupting the ground. Subvision provides high-precision, high-resolution surveys, ideal for accurately locating small objects and detailed structures such as underground utilities. Ultimately, this reduces development risk and helps optimise project timescales. Further information can be found in our FAQ’s section below.

GPR Survey Experts (Ground Penetrating Radar)

We also provide a wide range of surveying methods, covering both above- and below-ground solutions. For the most comprehensive and accurate underground utility survey, we recommend combining GPR with electromagnetic surveys, as GPR depth penetration can vary depending on ground conditions — from excellent performance in dry, sandy soils to more limited penetration in moist or clay soils with higher electrical conductivity.

GPR Surveys FAQ’s

A GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) survey uses radar technology to detect and map objects, services and structures beneath the ground without excavation.

GPR can locate utilities, voids, foundations, rebar, ducts, tanks and changes in ground conditions, depending on site conditions.

GPR surveys are commonly used before construction, drilling, piling, groundworks or refurbishment to reduce the risk of strikes and delays.

Yes. GPR is a key technique used within PAS128-compliant underground utility surveys to improve detection accuracy.

Cable avoidance tools detect live services only. GPR can detect both live and non-live services, plus structures and anomalies.

GPR works best in dry, sandy or concrete environments. Clay, high moisture and reinforced ground can reduce signal penetration, but useful data can still often be obtained.

Depth varies by ground conditions, but typically ranges from 0.5m to 4m. Deeper penetration is possible in favourable soils.

Yes. GPR surveys are completely non-intrusive and do not require breaking ground.

Yes. Subvision Surveys delivers PAS128-compliant surveys using GPR alongside other detection methods where required.

Our clients include Tier 1 contractors, developers, planners, civil engineers, utilities teams and private clients across the UK.

Survey time depends on site size and complexity. Small sites can often be completed in a few hours, larger sites in one or more days.

Yes. We provide clear survey outputs, including drawings, depth information and interpretive reports where required.

Yes. Our GPR surveys support feasibility studies, design coordination and pre-construction risk management.

Absolutely. We often combine GPR with utility mapping, drainage line surveys and level surveys for a complete subsurface picture.
