  • Bruce Spenser MSc LCGI | Party Wall Third Surveyor
    4.8
    Ramsgate, GB

    Party Wall Third Surveyor - Bruce Spenser MSc LCGI Bruce acts as the Third Surveyor throughout England and Wales. He also acts as the agreed Party Wall Surveyor in Thanet. Bruce no longer acts as the Party Wall Surveyor for the Building Surveyor or the Party Wall Surveyor for the Adjoining Owner. Expert Advice and Guidance Bruce is often asked for advice on current disputes, awards and actions and non-actions of appointed Party Wall Surveyors etc. The only advice he can give is what all Party Wall Surveyors should give; Contact a Party Wall Lawyer. Again Bruce does not give advice prior to being appointed; this is similar to approaching a Judge before the case is heard. Beware Party Wall Surveyors offering sprats to catch Mackerals (you and the other unfortunate owners in the dispute)!! Building Surveys Bruce no longer offers Building Surveys, however the menu for Building Surveys (at the foot of the page) cover all possible Building Defects and their rectification and the legal and ethical requirements of those offering Building Surveys. Bruce’s Building Survey Template is available for a fixed fee of £500.00 for one use. Contact Bruce Call Bruce

  • Kent Archaeological Projects
    2 Windmill Court, Borstal Hill, 2 Windmill Court Borstal Hill Whitstable Kent, Whitstable, CT5 4QH, GB

    Our Approach to Archaeology Kent Archaeological Projects (KAP) has become aware that archaeological factors play a critically important role on many sites, often due to archaeological specifications issued by local authorities as conditions of planning consent. We understand the challenges this presents to our clients and are committed to providing comprehensive and efficient solutions. The Issue There is a growing statutory requirement for site-specific archaeological desk-based research, walkover and geophysical surveys, evaluations, and extensive archaeological excavation before redevelopment or site disposal. Without prior knowledge of the archaeological potential and proper preparation, these requirements can cause significant disruption and delays, potentially jeopardizing the viability of the entire project. The Objective KAP conducts pre-planning application archaeological investigations on all types of sites to assess their archaeological potential. This allows for essential forward planning regarding finance, scheduling, and the necessary mitigation strategies required by the statutory authorities. We utilize the most appropriate techniques, ranging from non-intrusive magnetometery surveys to evaluation trenching, to provide an initial archaeological appraisal and determine the probable nature, extent, and significance of any archaeological remains, and how mitigation would affect any proposed redevelopment. The Solution Our professionally accredited staff boasts over twenty years of experience in the field and can effectively liaise with local authorities to agree on suitable and efficient mitigation measures, facilitating the discharge of archaeological conditions attached to planning consent. In many cases, minor modifications to a planned redevelopment can avoid costly and time-consuming archaeological work. After determining the probable type, extent, and overall significance of the archaeology and agreeing on a mitigation strategy with the relevant regulating body, KAP can undertake any required archaeological works to satisfy both the client and the archaeological authorities.

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

Find answers to common questions about excavation contractors and hiring excavation professionals in the UK.

Do I need a permit for excavation?

Permit requirements for excavation vary widely depending on your location and the project's specifics. Generally, permits are needed for:
  • Excavations Deeper Than a Certain Depth: This varies by jurisdiction, usually around 5 feet.
  • Excavations Near Utilities: Digging near buried utilities (gas, water, electric) often requires permits and utility locates to prevent damage.
  • Excavations Affecting Public Property: Projects impacting sidewalks, roads, or other public areas typically require permits.
  • Excavations in Environmentally Sensitive Areas: Projects in wetlands, floodplains, or other sensitive areas might need special permits.
Contact your local building department or planning authority to determine the permit requirements for your excavation project. Failure to obtain necessary permits can result in fines or project delays.

What is the difference between excavation and grading?

While often used together, excavation and grading are distinct processes:
Excavation: Primarily involves removing earth or other materials from a site. It's about digging down and creating space.
Grading: Focuses on shaping and leveling the ground to a specific slope or elevation. It's about adjusting the existing terrain.
For example, you might excavate a foundation and then grade the surrounding area to ensure proper drainage and a level surface for landscaping.

What are the different methods of excavation?

Excavation methods vary depending on project needs, site conditions, and available resources. Some common methods include:
  • Mechanical Excavation: Utilizing heavy equipment like excavators, backhoes, bulldozers, and loaders, suitable for most projects.
  • Hand Excavation: Using hand tools (shovels, picks) for smaller excavations or delicate work near utilities.
  • Blasting: Employing explosives to break up rock or hard materials, typically for large-scale projects.
  • Hydro Excavation: Using high-pressure water jets to loosen and remove soil, often used for locating utilities or delicate excavation.
  • Vacuum Excavation: Employing a vacuum system to suck up excavated material, suitable for safe excavation near utilities or in confined spaces.
Excavation contractors choose the most appropriate method based on factors like efficiency, cost, safety, and environmental impact.

  • Addressing Drainage and Erosion Issues: Providing solutions to manage water runoff and prevent erosion.
  • Evaluating Slope Stability: Assessing the risk of landslides or soil movement on slopes.
You might need a soil engineer for projects involving:
  • Building on challenging soil types (expansive clay, loose sand, etc.)

  • Excavating near slopes or retaining walls
  • Addressing drainage or erosion concerns
Your excavation contractor or local building department can advise if a soil engineer is necessary for your project.
