Which Cape Town and Western Cape areas do you service?

We cover Cape Town CBD, Foreshore, V&A Waterfront, Sea Point, Southern Suburbs (Claremont, Rondebosch, Wynberg), Century City, Milnerton, Montague Gardens, Table View, Epping, Parow, Bellville, Brackenfell, Durbanville, Kuils River, Somerset West, Strand, Stellenbosch, Paarl, Worcester, and George.

Does GPR work well in Cape Town’s sandy coastal soils?

Yes! Dry and sandy coastal soils common across the Cape Flats, Milnerton, and West Coast offer excellent electromagnetic signal penetration, allowing Ground Penetrating Radar to achieve crisp imaging and deeper target detection.
