Soil Consultants Limited

Soil Consultants Limited is an independent ground investigation and analytical company based in Holmer Green, High Wycombe. Established in 1988, it provides geotechnical and geo-environmental expertise for developers, engineers and other professional project teams.

Its investigation work includes cable percussion, rotary and solid-stem rotary boreholes, dynamic sampling, continuous dynamic probing, cone penetration testing, trial pits and structural investigations. Low-headroom rigs are available for basements and areas with limited access, while specialist partners can support utilities clearance, ground-penetrating radar, unexploded ordnance clearance, root identification and LiDAR surveys.

The company also prepares Stage 1 desk studies, ground investigation reports and geotechnical interpretative reports. These services help clients understand ground conditions, groundwater observations, foundation considerations and project-specific risks such as contamination, chalk dissolution, clay desiccation and mining. Reports are peer-reviewed by experienced chartered or registered professionals.

Environmental work covers contamination assessment, Phase 2 intrusive investigations, risk assessments, remediation advice, soil reuse strategies and validation reports. Recent project examples include K1 Knightsbridge, Barts Hospital, Clarges Estate, Chrisp Street Market and 100 Minories, indicating experience across substantial commercial, residential and public-facing developments.

Whether you are planning a new development or need a clearer understanding of an existing site, the team offers a structured route from early desk study through intrusive investigation, interpretation and environmental advice.
