What are geologists?
All over Europe, geologists are engaged in three sectors of activity: Resources & Energy, Environment and Construction. The role of the geologist is different from that of the engineer: Geologists interpret, engineers design and build.
Geologists make use of their special knowledge for the benefit of the public and are trained to consider the entire physical environment, the materials that compose it (rocks, soils, and water). Geologists work in exploration and development of mineral resources used in construction and industry and development of water resources, but also evaluating the stability of foundations for buildings, dams, bridges and roads, plus many others. Few other professions affect the public more than geology, especially through collaboration with the construction and engineering professions.
Why should you contact a geologist?
Is rock excavation adjacent to your property threatening the safety and stability of your property?
Worried about the quality of building stone and aggregate used in your home?
Groundwater seeping into your property?
Need an expert witness in Court?
