    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

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

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

How do I know if I need a retaining wall?

Retaining walls are structures designed to hold back soil or rock and prevent erosion on sloped terrain. You might need a retaining wall if:
  • Sloped Property: Your property has a significant slope, making it prone to soil erosion or landslides.
  • Creating Usable Space: You want to level off a sloped area to create a flat surface for patios, gardens, or other outdoor spaces.
  • Preventing Damage: Erosion is threatening existing structures, driveways, or walkways.
  • Landscaping Features: You're incorporating tiered gardens, raised beds, or other landscaping elements requiring soil retention.
Consult with an excavation contractor or landscape architect to determine if a retaining wall is necessary for your project and to ensure it's properly designed and constructed for safety and longevity.

What are the different types of excavation?

Excavation encompasses various types, each with its purpose and method. Some common types include:
  • Topsoil Removal: Stripping the fertile topsoil layer from a site, often preserving it for landscaping.
  • Trench Excavation: Digging long, narrow trenches for utilities (pipes, cables) or foundations.
  • Basement Excavation: Removing earth to create a space for a basement beneath a structure.
  • Pool Excavation: Digging a precise hole for installing a swimming pool.
  • Roadway Excavation: Removing earth and preparing the ground for road construction.
  • Demolition Excavation: Clearing debris and preparing the site after demolition.
  • Channel Excavation: Creating channels for drainage or irrigation.
The specific type of excavation required depends on the project's goals and site conditions.

How deep can you excavate?

The depth of excavation achievable depends on multiple factors:
  • Soil Type and Stability: Stable, cohesive soils allow for deeper excavations than loose or unstable soils.
  • Groundwater Level: Excavations below the water table require dewatering techniques to manage water intrusion.
  • Equipment and Resources: The size and capabilities of excavation equipment influence the achievable depth.
  • Safety Regulations: OSHA and other safety regulations impose limitations on trench depths without proper shoring or sloping.
  • Project Requirements: The purpose of the excavation (basement, pool, foundation) determines the necessary depth.
Experienced excavation contractors can assess your site and project specifics to determine the safe and feasible excavation depth.

What should I do before excavation starts?

Prior to the start of excavation, take these essential steps:
  • Clearly Define the Scope: Outline the project's goals, including the excavation area, depth, grade, and intended use.
  • Obtain Necessary Permits: Research and acquire any required permits from your local authorities.
  • Mark Utility Lines: Contact your utility companies to locate and mark underground utilities to prevent damage.
  • Communicate with Neighbors: Inform your neighbors about the project's timeline and potential noise or disruptions.
  • Prepare the Site: Clear any obstacles, such as vegetation, furniture, or structures, from the excavation area.
  • Discuss Safety Protocols: Review safety procedures with the contractor to ensure a safe work environment.
Taking these steps helps ensure a smooth and successful excavation project.
