Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need a Soils Test in Colorado?
A soil test is required in Colorado for construction because the state has a significant presence of “expansive soils,” which can expand significantly when exposed to moisture, causing major structural damage to buildings if not properly accounted for; therefore, testing the soil beforehand allows builders to design foundations that can withstand these soil movements and ensure the stability of the structure.
What is a Profile Pit Test?
“Soil profile test pit excavation” means a trench or other excavation used for access to evaluate the soil horizons for properties influencing effluent movement, bedrock, evidence of seasonal high ground water, and other information to be used in locating and designing an On-site Wastewater Treatment System.
Why do I need a Structural Engineer?
You might need a structural engineer in Colorado Springs, Colorado when you’re planning a project that could affect the structure of your home or building. This includes renovations, additions, or repairs.
Why does my project require a permit from the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department
The Pikes Peak Building Department requires permits and inspections to ensure the safety of residents by regulating construction quality, verifying compliance with building codes, and protecting the value of property within their jurisdiction, essentially aiming to safeguard life, health, and property through consistent application of construction standards across all buildings and structures in the area.

“Very Professional & Super Responsive”
Took a chance with Andrew with Colorado Geo-Solutions. We needed soils done in a timely manner and none of the other companies could give us a date for when they could have things done. Andrew called me back immediately and were out at our lot within a week and half. They were super responsive and got our results back sooner than we expected even during the holidays. Very professional and friendly. Would use them again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much.

“Couldn’t be more happy”
We recently had soils testing done for a home we are building and couldn’t be more happy with the service. The work was prompt, the report was very detailed and the explanations were helpful for getting an understanding about what is needed for the build. Thanks a ton!
