Learn more →Local geology in Surrey
Surrey's geology varies significantly across the county. The North Downs chalk gives way to Greensand, Lower Greensand and Wealden Clay as you move south. Borehole depths and water quality differ considerably across even short distances — which is why a local desk study and site assessment is always the starting point. The Godalming and Cranleigh areas (our strongest coverage) typically sit on productive Greensand formations.
Every site is different. A desk-based geological assessment is always the starting point for any project.
