GeoReports provides cost-effective access to unique sources of published and unpublished geological data, combined with expert advice from BGS scientists.
If you are interested in ground conditions for drilling, investigation or house purchase or if you are concerned about subsidence or Radon then GeoReports can help you.
Send us a site plan to define your locationAs part of an ongoing review of our products, the price of the BGS GeoReports is to rise in January 2025.
This increase is linked to the rising cost of production and will be applied to all reports – with incremental increases over a 24-month period in order to limit inconvenience for our customers.
If you would like further information in relation to this increase and how it may apply to you, please contact enquiries@bgs.ac.uk
