About Corvus

Scanned by people who used to do the drilling.

We came out of the concrete cutting trade. Laura ran operations at a diamond drilling company, Conor drilled for 20 years, and Corvus still works alongside drilling partners. We know what a crew needs painted on the slab and what an engineer needs in the report.

We do four things: GPR concrete scanning, ferro scanning, PAS 128 utility surveys and concrete testing. We are based in Canary Wharf, on site across the UK every week, and you will deal with the same surveyors from call to report.

We call back the same working day. Findings are marked on the slab before we leave, with a signed one-page site record and photos. The written report and CAD plan follow within 5 working days, signed by the surveyor who did the work.

The people

Terry Bagust
Terry Bagust
Co-founder and Managing Director

Terry sets the technical standards, methodology and quality framework across every Corvus survey. He brings more than 20 years in applied geophysics and subsurface data from the energy industry, where the job was turning noisy measurements into decisions people could defend. At Corvus that becomes practical: the right instrument for the question, a surveyor who can read it, and a report an engineer can quote.

Laura Ashdown
Laura Ashdown
Co-founder and Director

Laura leads the commercial and operational side of Corvus. She ran operations at BritCut, the Dartford diamond drilling and concrete cutting contractor, so she knows how a drilling programme is planned, what a crew needs from a scan before it starts, and what a missed tendon costs. She runs Corvus the way she ran a drilling business: clear answers, no jargon, and the job done properly.

Conor Southin
Conor Southin
Field Surveyor

Conor was a diamond driller for 20 years before he moved into GPR and ferro scanning. He has spent two decades on the other end of the drill, so he knows what a crew needs marked on the slab and why. He is on site most days, scanning slabs, walls and columns, and reading the data for the engineer. His view: anyone can look at a scan, and the real skill is interpreting it correctly.

Fantastic experience working with Connor. He provided brilliant service, was highly efficient, and made the whole process seamless. It's rare to find someone so reliable and dedicated to quality work. 10/10 would recommend.

Contacted Corvus to use GPR to locate concrete supports laid under a porcelain patio to anchor pergolas to. Within minutes Terry called to discuss and advised they could attend within a week, with an honest caveat that it might not be possible depending on the materials. Terry and Connor attended on the agreed date, on time, and were a pleasure to deal with, professional, polite, friendly and conscientious. The majority of the footings were not where the landscaping contractors had led us to believe, so a worthwhile exercise indeed. Would thoroughly recommend.
