Ground Penetrating Radar Survey - Gravesite Locating



Did you know that most graveyards records are far younger than their oldest graves? In many cases records have been lost to fire, floods, or acts of nature. This doesn't change the fact that selling grave plots is a business. There are questions however. Is that plot empty? Are there burials outside of our cemetery boundaries? How can we know?

You might never know it from looking at the headstones, but this graveyard has very few remaining plots. The records were destroyed in a fire years ago, and the gentleman responsible for the upkeep is now buried here. Through the use of Ground Penetrating Radar, Maverick Inspection was able to provide a map of available plots throughout the cemetery. Using modern equipment, and experienced technicians, Maverick Inspection Ltd. can offer the solution to your problems.

Maverick Inspection uses technology to locate items that lie out of sight. This non-destructive technology allows us to locate bodeies, coffins, vaults, caskets and urns without disturbing the ground in which they lay.
