Test Pits Investigations
Neighbor’s Property Management provides professional test pit excavation services for engineering and environmental assessments and construction projects.
Our test pit services support many applications, including for foundation investigations, fill material assessments, underground tank investigations, stormwater investigations, and more. With both small and large digging equipment, we can accommodate a variety of site conditions and project requirements.
Geotechnical Test Pits and
Test Pit Soil Excavation
Geotechnical test pits are excavated to expose the layers of soil on your property and allow geotechnical investigators like Neighbor’s Property management to directly assess your ground conditions. Unlike a traditional soil boring that collects samples from only a narrow vertical area, test pits expose a much larger section of soil. That makes it easier to get a full look at the makeup of your soil and overall site features, as well as find any materials that might be buried underneath.
Our test pit investigation services support many different observations, such as:
- Soil profile evaluation
- Foundation test pits
- Fill material investigation
- Groundwater observations
- Infiltration testing
- Basin flood testing
Environmental Test Pits and Test Pit Tank Investigations
Beyond just letting you know more about your soil and what’s underneath the surface of your construction site, test pit excavation also plays a role in environmental assessments. We also work closely alongside environmental consultants and other environmental project pros to ensure groundwork activity is in line with environmental safety procedures.
Neighbor’s Property management provides test pit support for environmental investigations, including:
- Hazardous fill test pits
- Test pits in landfills
- Underground tank investigations
- Tank remediation
- Soil Remediation
Test Pit Documentation and Test Pit Engineering Support
During a test pit investigation, a lot of valuable information is collected to support construction projects and other projects requiring groundwork. This information is collected through soil sampling, test pit photo documentation, and visual examinations. Neighbor’s Property Management works closely with trusted engineering and soil science professionals who can provide detailed test pit logs, professional evaluations, and recommendations based on our excavation findings. These partnerships help ensure that the information collected can be properly evaluated and used to support informed construction and site development decisions.
We also support all test pitting activities by making sure your site areas stay accessible and that all work completed is coordinated appropriately with other field personnel. Once all the test pitting is completed, we also can backfill any areas that were dug out and restore the disturbed surface so you can continue your project without interruption.
