All of our operations are aimed at reducing environmental damage. Furthermore, we have our own in-house expertise to plan, execute, and report on geotechnical investigations using experienced staff. Hydracrat was founded in February 1960 to establish itself as a leading ground investigation contractor, initially making our mark by performing a key role in proving Scotland’s largest and most successful open cast coal sites, many of which were inaccessible using standard tracked drilling rigs due to extremely soft ground conditions. We are now helping to decarbonise heat in Scotland, by installing the borehole ground array to facilitate Ground Source Heat Pumps nationwide.
