Provider for soil investigation in the Hanover area

Hello,

now that the land purchase has been completed, I would like to have a geotechnical survey carried out before entering into a contract with a construction company for the house build.

The plot is just under 580sqm and the house will be approximately 11m x 9m in size...

Do you know of a provider in the Hannover area who offers a reliable report with foundation recommendations at a fair price?

The company Helma has recommended the provider IGVP to us; there the geotechnical survey including 2 dynamic probing tests up to 5m, tabular evaluation and topographic site survey is to cost €695.

However, I do not know if the price is only valid in connection with a contract conclusion with Helma.

Does anyone have experience with the company Geoskop, which in turn is recommended by BöStein?

I also do not want to save in the wrong place, therefore quality is more important than price here.

What exactly should be examined and really makes sense?

Thank you in advance.

P.S. Can the soil conditions still fundamentally change if, for example, construction only starts in a year?

P.s. Three times the same link within 4 weeks - do you ever use the search function?? Directed explicitly at you, the question !

Sorry Yvonne, I will have offers sent to me there. Could you possibly answer the last question for me? I would rather not have to create and pay for an appraisal multiple times...

I can't imagine that: soils develop over a very long time (Adam and Eve???) or are in a fallow state due to past events.
A building survey should be valid for at least 3 years, I guess. Further details can probably be found in the offers.

We are also planning to build in the Hannover region. Do you have any news about the soil survey? Have you already had one done, which provider, and would you recommend them?

Hello Motox,

I have not commissioned a soil survey yet because our BU said that the exact position of the house to be built is necessary. Since we are still in the planning phase, we are waiting a little longer...
