GPR Concrete Scanning in Bournemouth and Poole

In Bournemouth and Poole we scanned car park slabs and decks for CrowdHouse Energy, a commercial solar installer, before the foundations and anchors for their solar carports went in. Carports and EV charger bases are going into car parks across the conurbation, and most mean fixing into slabs with no reliable drawings.

What we scanned and why. A solar carport stands on foundations and anchors fixed into the car park. On a deck or a suspended slab, that means drilling into concrete that may carry post-tension tendons, heavy reinforcement or buried services such as lighting and drainage. For CrowdHouse Energy we scanned the canopy positions, located what was in the way and marked the clear zones on the surface, so the installer could set out and drill to the marks.

Car parks, decks and EV chargers. Multi-storey car parks are often post-tensioned, and a cut tendon on a deck is a structural problem, not a snag. Surface car parks hide ducts, cables and drainage runs. The same scan covers EV charger bases and canopy anchors.

What you get. Marks on the concrete at every position before we leave, and a report with each scan area, what was found, depth-indicative positions and the instrument used, signed by the surveyor who did the scan. A DXF comes with it where your engineer or installer needs to set out from it.

How we cover Bournemouth and Poole. We are based in Canary Wharf. A surveyor travels down the day before for an early start, and travel is itemised on the quote. The promises are the same as in London: a call back the same working day, marks on the slab before we leave, and the report within 5 working days.

FAQs

Bournemouth and Poole questions, answered.

Can you scan a car park while it stays open?
Yes. We work bay by bay and agree the order with the operator, so only the area being scanned needs closing off.
Can you scan for EV charger bases as well as carports?
Yes. The method is the same: locate tendons, reinforcement and services at each base, and mark the clear zones.
Do you cover Poole as well as Bournemouth?
Yes. This page covers Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch.
