Welcome to Abbeydale Geoscience
At Abbeydale Geoscience we help you to understand what's in the ground and how to work with it.
We are still going strong all these years later, offering customers the same core values, delivering the best service possible, all in an honest and friendly way. We are proud of our past.
Lauched in 1993, we’re a small independent team of geoscience and geotechnical engineering specialists based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire. So far we’ve carried out over 2000 projects for lots of different clients, development types and geographical areas around the UK.
We have always aimed to provide a technically robust and personable service focused around getting the geotechnical and environment information that’s needed out of the ground. This maximises the cost effectiveness of doing a ground investigation, covering what’s required for planning and building control, and also for clients wanting to understand their liabilities as landowners.
Our vision is to mitigate the impacts of human activities and build a better world. By carrying out geoscience consultancy services we contribute to bringing this vision into reality by helping people to understand what’s in the ground beneath them, and how to work with it.

At Abbeydale Geoscience we work with lots of different people who need to get information out of the ground. From structural engineers, architects, developers, planning consultants, landowners, builders and principal contractors, through to academic institutions and commercial companies.
We work on a high level of repeat business, so our clients get to know us, what we do and how we work, and we get to know what they need from us. We’ll work with anyone who values what we do, and the importance of doing things safely, cost effectively and properly.
We work on repeat business because we work with people who value what we do. Although we want to be commercially competitive, we work with people who understand that it’s about having the right information to make informed decisions that really matter.
We don’t do discounts. We don’t do corner cutting. We don’t do excessively more (or less) than we think that we need to do. We don’t hide our prices, because we want you to know what you’re getting and why it’s needed.
Our suppliers have been carefully chosen because they share the same values as us and want to do things to a high standard or workmanship and professionalism.
We get it... there are quite a lot of geoscience, geotechnical and geo-environmental consultants out there. So what makes our small Wakefield, West Yorkshire based company so special? Well, below are just a few reasons we stand out and we think you'll find us refreshing to work with.

We always focus on providing pragmatic solutions and work with our clients, regulators, principle contractors and local authorities to work towards getting the best outcome possible.
For every project you’ll get a dedicated project manager; one point of contact who you can speak to at any time to keep updated about the project. If they don’t know the answer straightaway, they will certainly know where to go to find out the answer!
