Unexploded Bomb Risk Assessments for Housing Developments

Castledine Environmental provides expert UXO (Unexploded Ordnance) risk assessments to support land development, planning applications, and construction safety. If your site is located in an area previously affected by wartime bombing or military activity, a UXO risk assessment may be required to ensure the safety of groundworkers, contractors, and the public.

We offer Stage 1 Desk-Based UXO Risk Assessments in accordance with CIRIA C681 guidance. These detailed reports examine historical mapping, bombing records, and military land use data to determine the likelihood of encountering unexploded ordnance on your site.

Where a potential risk is identified, we also provide Stage 2 intrusive assessments, on-site UXO support, and mitigation advice in collaboration with specialist partners. Our reports help satisfy planning authority requirements, meet health and safety obligations, and support construction risk management planning.

Whether you're developing a brownfield site, redeveloping former Ministry of Defence (MoD) land, or working in a known bombed area, our UXO services offer peace of mind and professional guidance at every stage.
