Soilfix successfully remediated our site on time and budget despite an increasing scope of works caused by unforeseen underground tanks and associated contamination
Services
Completed as a crucial part of a remediation contract where programme/cost savings can be obtained through efficient phasing, recycling of materials and managing pollution risks.
Site Clearances London
Toxic waste from previous industrial activities can be left behind, including fuel & chemical residues. Ideally, these will be removed by previous occupants. Where not, they can prove a costly addition to demolition works and, where handled improperly, can exacerbate contamination problems.
At your brownfield site in London, Soilfix can manage the clearance of waste and chemicals to meet legal requirements and lower environmental risks.
Dismantling and Demolition London
Soilfix personnel are proficient in above and below ground demolition works in London. By utilising a mixture of these services you have the opportunity to reduce project costs and maximise the re-use of demolition materials reducing environmental damage.
Previous London demolition projects have included transport depots, waste water treatment works and service stations. Prior to commencement of any demolition, Soilfix carries out all necessary risk assessments and ensures a good understanding of client requirements and site constraints. Where necessary, Soilfix can also manage the safe removal of hazardous building materials including lead-based paints and asbestos.
Tank Removal / Treatment
Fuel/chemical tanks and infrastructure need to be removed in a controlled manner by a qualified contractor to minimise risks of further contamination. Soilfix ensures that residual liquids are removed to the greatest extent possible and takes steps to render vessels inert before their removal. Impacted soils can often be treated and removed together.
Under certain scenarios and where risks are acceptable, redundant tanks can be left in situ. Cleaning, degassing and filling vessels with inert material (e.g. concrete slurry, foam or sand) weakens ongoing risks and can be a cheaper alternative to removal.
Materials Recycling London
Soilfix is committed to providing its clients with the most sustainable use of materials generated on the site. Measures reguarly include: Crushing of concrete, brick and tarmac to form engineered fill; Reuse of sub-grade granular materials; Enhancement of the geotechnical properties of existing materials; Manufacture of subsoil and topsoil from effected strata; Composting of green waste; and off-site recycling of metalwork. These operations decrease traffic movements and reduce build costs.
