Hanmar Site Investigation Services Limited

Hanmar Site Investigation Services is an independently owned ground-investigation contractor based in Larne, County Antrim, serving projects across the Island of Ireland and the UK.

The company specialises in geotechnical and environmental investigation, using cable-percussive and rotary drilling, trial pitting, window sampling and dynamic probing to assess ground conditions. Its work can include boreholes, sampling, underground-service investigations, environmental assessments and in-situ testing such as permeability, plate-bearing, CBR and soakaway testing.

Hanmar also provides project management, installations and monitoring, laboratory testing and support for remediation-related investigations. Boreholes may be fitted with monitoring equipment for groundwater, gas, settlement or slope movement, while water-well and geothermal-well drilling can be arranged through its project-management service.

Its Larne facility includes soil and rock testing capability, with factual and interpretive reporting available for client requirements. The company works with consulting engineers, architects, public authorities, government bodies, businesses and private individuals, making it suitable for development, infrastructure, environmental and specialist investigation work. Compact and specialist rigs support restricted-access locations where appropriate.
