ApproachSite-led, access-aware, clearly scoped
What to expect
The project specification leads the drilling work.
Environmental boreholes are often one part of a wider groundwater or site investigation. Their position, depth, construction, and surface completion should follow a clear brief prepared for the project and the conditions encountered on site.
Deon’s provides the drilling and borehole-construction work, coordinating with the client’s appointed environmental consultant or project lead where applicable. Bore diameter, casing, screen, filter materials, sealing, access, spoil handling, and the required handover information should be agreed before work starts.
