Intersect surveys
Get a clearer understanding of what lies beneath your site before work begins. Intersect Surveys provides PAS 128-compliant utility surveys to help contractors, developers and engineers make informed decisions and reduce the risk of costly underground surprises.

When your project depends on understanding what’s underground, you need a survey team that understands the work happening above it. Intersect brings together surveying and engineering expertise to provide practical information your team can use throughout planning, design and construction.

Work with a skilled team familiar with the demands of construction, infrastructure and development sites.

Your site, proposed works and survey objectives shape the approach, helping you get the information relevant to your project.

CAD-ready mapping makes it easier to incorporate detected utilities into your designs and site plans.

Need a topographical survey or CCTV drainage survey too? Intersect can combine services to support your wider site requirements.

Nationwide coverage gives you one point of contact for projects across the UK.

An unexpected pipe or cable can lead to damaged services, disrupted schedules and expensive changes to your plans.
A PAS 128 survey helps you identify underground utility constraints earlier, giving your team better information to:
Reduce the risk of striking buried services.
Identify potential conflicts during design.
Plan excavation and ground investigation work.
Limit avoidable disruption and redesign.
Understand where further investigation may be needed.
PAS 128 provides a recognised framework for recording utility information and communicating its quality and reliability.


Using complementary detection methods, we investigate buried services such as:
Electricity cables.
Gas mains.
Water pipes.
Drainage and sewer pipes.
Telecommunications cables and ducts.
Ground penetrating radar and electromagnetic locating equipment help build a more detailed picture of underground services. Detection depends on factors including ground conditions, utility materials, depth and site access.
Not sure what survey you need? Tell us about your planned works and we’ll help you establish the right scope.

Send your site location, survey boundary and proposed works. Include a site plan if available, along with your required completion date.

We’ll discuss your requirements, access arrangements and required outputs so you know what the survey will cover.

Following the agreed survey work, we provide mapping and reporting to help your team assess underground constraints and plan the works ahead.
It is an underground utility survey carried out against the PAS 128 specification. This sets requirements for detecting, verifying and locating buried utilities, including how the quality and confidence of survey information are recorded.
GPR is a detection technology. PAS 128 is the wider specification covering survey planning, methods, information quality and deliverables. GPR can form part of a PAS 128 detection survey alongside other methods.
The cost depends on the survey area, site complexity, access and required scope. Send us your site details and we can prepare a quotation based on your project.
Tell us your required survey date and when you need the results. We’ll review the scope and confirm availability and anticipated delivery times.
Yes. Intersect provides topographical surveying alongside utility mapping, helping you understand both surface features and underground services.
No survey can guarantee that every service will be detected. Findings must be considered alongside the survey’s limitations, appropriate verification and safe excavation procedures.
