1. Reduce All Risks
Safety first - data later.
Working in any environment presents its risks, but working in water carries different risks with high consequences. In order to reduce the likelihood and severity of an accident our survey teams take the DEFRA Module 2 Water Awareness Course. This training is done repeatedly for our staff in genuine river conditions – often in January! Our management system tracks our surveyors training and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), ensuring that our surveyors are as safe as possible.
Staff are also trained using the Royal Yacht Association courses for First Aid and Boat Handling. Private instruction on Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), Scrambling, Wading, Rope work and Rescue is provided to all staff.
Only trained staff are put into situations with risk, and even then they will only carry out the task if they feel fully confident that the correct control measures are in place.
Since 2007 we have a history of safe working and have a motto of “Safety First – Data Later”
2. Accurate Data Capture
Capturing survey data that you need.
By specialising in water based projects, you can be sure that the data you receive from our surveyors compliments your project requirements fully. Whatever your survey requirement is, we will have undoubtedly supplied similar data and drawings on another project before. if not, we will be extremely pleased to hear your requirements and adapt to accommodate them. Our surveyors have the experience and knowledge to capture features of hydraulic significance which might otherwise be missed by a general purpose land surveying company. It is this skill and experience which set us apart from our competitors and bring our customers back time and time again.
3. Deliver on Time
Delivering your survey requirements on time and on schedule.
We know that one of the most important criteria to you when commissioning a survey is timely delivery of the final data. With this in mind, deadlines are set throughout a project and regular (normally weekly) reports are delivered from our survey manager which will inform you of what has been done, what is planned to be done and any slippage or improvement on your delivery date. A surveyor in our company that is involved with your project will always be available to speak to you throughout your project lifespan. We work better under pressure as we are more organised and target driven.
