Electronic Trial Holes

Whether your project involves kilometres of highway, or a localised site, we have the best utility location and mapping solutions to suit your needs. One of the latest solutions to gathering information about buried assets is Electronic Trial Holes.

Rook Services Ltd will scan and collect underground utility data from an area of approximately 2m². We have adopted the best available technology, techniques and procedures in order to generate an accurate and detailed map of utilities buried within the survey area.

Following completion of the survey you will be supplied with a photo of the survey area, a cross-section and overhead plan CAD drawing of services found. Using this technique can provide numerous benefits in comparison to traditional methods, such as trial holes:

• Little or nominal disruption to traffic or pedestrians
• No-dig technology
• No additional scarring
• No expensive re-instatement works
• Environmentally friendly
• High productivity
• Low cost

This is particularly true when faced with a large area to survey that, perhaps due to financial or time constraints, would not require a full survey. In this instance, between 4 and 6 trial holes could be excavated per day, each covering a one-meter cube. Alternatively, Rook Services Ltd can deliver electronically up to 20 ground penetrating radar scans per day, each covering a 2m² area depending on the location.
