How much does a soil report typically cost?

This genuinely varies by site size, complexity, and the specific geotechnical provider — a standard residential soil report is a relatively modest cost in the context of your overall project, but the exact figure varies enough that a specific quote is worth obtaining.

Larger sites, or sites needing more boreholes due to size or suspected variable conditions, generally cost more than a smaller, straightforward, uniform block.

Given how directly your soil report affects foundation design and cost, it’s a genuinely worthwhile investment regardless of the specific figure — not an area to try to minimise cost on.
