Services

Our clients often praise us for our efficiency, attention to detail and cost-effectiveness. We will never overcharge you for the work we do. With Spoilheap, you only ever pay for the hours we spend on your project.

Post-excavation management

With over twenty years' experience in post-excavation analysis, Spoilheap Archaeology is able to offer a full post-excavation management service. We can provide a complete package, starting from a review of your raw site date, through processing and analysis of contextual and artefactual data, to the final report, illustrations, publication and archiving.

We can offer preparation of manuscripts for publication, design services, copy-editing, typesetting and proofing.
