Material Sampling FAQs

Before any sampling begins, we conduct detailed surveys to identify safe extraction points. Our experienced technicians use precision equipment and carefully controlled methods to minimise impact.  

Each sampling location is properly reinstated following extraction, ensuring structural integrity is maintained throughout the process. 

Laboratory analysis of properly extracted samples reveals crucial information about your structure’s condition.  

The results provide clear insights into: 

  • Material strength and durability  
  • Construction quality and workmanship  
  • Potential structural weaknesses  
  • Current deterioration levels  
  • Expected service life 

This information helps you make informed decisions about maintenance, repairs, and long-term asset management. 

Standard strength testing typically delivers results within 7 days, while comprehensive analysis packages may take 10 days.  

When urgent results are needed, we can often accommodate expedited testing schedules. Our laboratory partners provide efficient processing with clear reporting timeframes, keeping you informed throughout the process. 

Our sampling and testing procedures align with relevant British and international standards.  

We maintain:  

  • Comprehensive quality assurance protocols 
  • Regular equipment calibration 
  • Full chain of custody documentation 
  • Detailed method statements 
  • Rigorous quality control procedures 

We understand that technical data needs expert interpretation to be truly useful.  

When requested we can provide clear explanations on the findings in your report to help you understand the practical implications for your structure. We can provide specific recommendations for action, prioritised according to urgency and importance.  

Our comprehensive approach includes future monitoring requirements and maintenance planning, helping you protect your assets effectively.
