Phase 1 Desktop Study in Liverpool – Fast, Compliant Reports

Why a Phase 1 Desktop Study matters in Liverpool

Most local planning authorities in Liverpool will expect an up-to-date Phase 1 Desktop Study before validating a planning application. Our reports combine historical mapping, environmental database searches, and a professional site walkover to identify potential contamination and geotechnical constraints early.

Liverpool has a varied development history and, in places, legacy industrial uses or historic mining activity. Our proportionate recommendations ensure you only commission intrusive investigation when it is truly needed—saving time and cost while satisfying validation requirements.

Where relevant, we can coordinate complementary services such as Infiltration Testing (BRE 365) or a Coal Mining Risk Assessment to give you a joined‑up package that de‑risks planning.
