Our survey department has come a long way from the humble beginnings where we stored survey kit and spares in the meeting room (it had to go somewhere, right?).
Since then, we’ve called a variety of places ‘storage’, including a local self-store locker room and even the freezer of an old ice cream factory. (Unfortunately, no ice cream was left behind.)
Now, we’ve levelled. We’ve recently moved into a larger facility that gives us space for growth. It’s got storage space for all the essential survey kit, the spares, and even the slightly more unusual items we’ve picked up along the way – looking at you, lobster pot.
We also have plenty of workshop space for equipment development, testing and organising before it heads out onto projects.
Plus, we’ve added some real lifting power to the team – say hello to ForkyMcForkFace – our new electric counterbalance forklift truck.
A small milestone for us, but one we’re proud of, and one that puts us in a stronger position to support the work we love doing.
