Soil investigation company are quoting at least £3,345:
Remediation Strategy = £1,050
Inspection of clean cover, 1 visit = £695
Chemical analysis (3 subsoil, 3 topsoil, at £75ea.) = £450
Verification Report = £1,150
- Have permission to demolish existing dwelling & complete self-build in England.
- Ground investigations flagged possible issue on screening tests, likely to do with bonfires and leaky oil tank (lead, petrol, and Hydrocarbons).
- Can we dig up said areas & get soil removed by licensed company? If so, how wide & deep?
- Or do we need to get a company to generate a strategy & then verify & produce certificate? No conditions were in approval to get tests, only if something is definitely found.
- Advice welcomed. Thanks.
