Testimonials

RPS Group

I’ve used drilling services from Phoenix Drilling Ltd for many years and have a good relationship with the team there.

Phoenix have provided a good level of service and I’ve commissioned them for several firms that I have worked with for trial pitting, window sampling, rotary borehole drilling mineral investigations and geotechnical works.

Mason Evans

Mason Evans (geo-environmental consultants) have worked with Phoenix Drilling for overs 10 years.

They are a significant ground investigation contractor for us, providing a wide range of investigation techniques, alongside superb historic knowledge of Scottish ground conditions, strongly supported by very experienced site staff and office support.

The Managing Director, Stephen Glover, has been a long-time great help to Mason Evans and it is due to his experience, health and safety record, and managerial expertise that we then continually work alongside Phoenix Drilling.

I have no hesitation to recommend Phoenix Dilling as a ground investigation contractor.

They have always been accommodating to our timescales, and the drillers show a great knowledge and understanding of our requirements during each ground investigation. As can often be the case when tackling unknown ground conditions, challenges do arise during fieldwork. In such scenarios, Phoenix Drilling have been proactive and worked effectively to ensure our requirements are met. We look forward to continuing to work with Phoenix Drilling, and we would highly recommend their services to other consultants.’
