Following on from our previous blog about PAS 128, we’re going to talk about how to choose the right PAS 128 survey type.

When a client comes to us unsure about which PAS 128 level they need, we start by asking a few simple questions:

▫️What stage is your project at?

▫️How deep will you be excavating?

▫️How congested is the area?

▫️What utilities are likely to be present?

▫️Are there any designer or insurer requirements?

Once we’ve discussed the project in more detail it becomes clear which survey type and accuracy level is appropriate. Our goal is always the same – provide the level of certainty you need without over-specifying and risking project budgets.

What’s really beneath our feet?

At Adaptive Surveys, uncovering the unseen is where our people excel. Our underground utility surveys bring the hidden utilities network into clear view.

That expertise is led by Senior Surveyor Ryan Jardine, our resident utility specialist. Ryan heads up our Central Belt office and leads our Utility and CCTV service lines, bringing years of hands‑on experience in underground surveying and utility search to every project. His knowledge shapes not only how surveys are delivered, but how teams interpret results and mitigate risk from the outset.

Working alongside Ryan, our survey teams combine expert judgement with the latest non‑destructive technologies to accurately locate and map buried infrastructure. Every survey is delivered in full alignment with PAS 128, ensuring clarity, confidence, and the highest standards of quality.
