Why GeoPrime
Works

Anyone can call themselves a drilling contractor. Our credentials are verifiable, industry-recognised and maintained. We are members of the British Drilling Association — the UK's leading drilling trade body — and accredited with City and Guilds. Every lead driller holds NVQ Level 2 in Land Drilling. Every site operative carries a valid CSCS card.

These aren't wall decorations. They represent the standards we're held to on every project, and the reason clients can trust the data we produce.

Our team have spent over a decade carrying out ground investigations across the UK — on construction sites, brownfield land, live infrastructure projects and everything in between. That experience doesn't just sit on a CV. It shows up in how we assess a site, how we handle unexpected ground conditions, and how we keep your project on programme when things don't go to plan.

You're not getting someone learning on the job. You're getting people who have seen it all before.

Ground investigation is only as good as the equipment carrying it out. We invest in well-maintained, calibrated machinery — and we keep it that way. All SPT equipment is regularly calibrated and holds adequate certification. Our rigs are serviced, our tools are checked, and our samples are handled correctly from recovery to delivery.

When you commission a ground investigation, you need to be able to trust the data. That trust starts with the equipment.

Based in Wigan, Greater Manchester — but we go wherever the work is. We cover the entire UK and remain fully competitive on pricing regardless of location. No inflated mobilisation costs, no excuses about distance. If you need ground investigation, we'll be there.

For clients managing projects across multiple regions, that consistency matters. One contractor, same standard, wherever you need us.

We know how frustrating it is to deal with contractors who don't communicate. We don't do that. From your first enquiry through to demob, you'll know what's happening, when it's happening, and why. If something changes on site, we tell you straight away — not after the fact.

We're not a faceless organisation. You deal with real people who take responsibility for the work they're doing on your project.

Safe working is non-negotiable on every GeoPrime site. All operations are carried out in full compliance with current health and safety legislation. Our site teams are trained in all relevant safety procedures, our equipment is maintained to the required standards, and we take a proactive approach to risk management on every project.

Putting people and sites at risk to cut corners isn't something we do — ever.
