Work

We’ve built long-standing relationships up with councils in the North East over the years, and we’re pleased to be their trusted surveyor to support them in the area.

We regularly support a local engineering company, surveying maintenance equipment used on railways, which they precisely refurbish and re-align to meet stringent railway standards.

By 1870, the ‘F’ Pit was the major coal outlet for the New Washington Colliery. Over the years, the pit has survived explosions, been re-modelled and modernised before finally drawing its last coal in 1968. Following the closure, the National Coal Board gifted the impressive winding house and headgear to the town of Washington.

We have worked at quarries all over the country for many years, providing extraction quantities, stockpile surveys, overburden check surveys, and setting out.

Participating in environmental initiatives is a regular part of surveying as we work with a number of engineering and environmental consultancies.

We have worked extensively on National Grid Properties sites, surveying many gas holder sites all over the country.

Often when surveying historic buildings we come across many challenges, which limits the types of surveys available.

It’s not every day that we get both the opportunity to work on a photo montage survey thats inside the grounds of a royal palace, so we jumped at the chance to work on this project.

Roofs can one of the more challenging structures to survey, often requiring scaffolding and posing health and safety hazards in order to product a quality survey.

Precise monitoring surveys can be used to monitor movement on a building or structure that shows previous signs of movement or may be susceptible to movement or damage in the future.

Flooding is becoming increasingly more common, leaving lasting consequences for landowners and homeowners.

This year, Landform Surveys have been asked to survey many large scale highways projects, such as the M1 in Leeds, & the A19 in Durham.
