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 effective phasing, recycling of materials and managing pollution risks.
Site Clearances Peterborough
Toxic waste from previous industrial activities can be left behind, including fuel & chemical residues. Any previous occupants should have removed these. Where not, they can prove a costly addition to demolition works and, where handled inaccurately, can aggravate contamination problems.
Soilfix can manage waste/chemical clearance at your brownfield site in Peterborough to ensure compliance with legislative requirements and reduce risks to the environment.
Dismantling and Demolition Peterborough
Soilfix personnel are proficient in above and below ground demolition works in Peterborough. 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 Peterborough demolition projects have included service stations, transport depots and waste water treatment works. Soilfix undertakes thorough risk assessments and strives to gain a comprehensive understanding of client requirements and site constraints prior to commencing any demolition work. Where necessary, Soilfix can also manage the safe removal of lead-based paints, asbestos and other hazardous building materials.
Tank Removal / Treatment
Fuel/chemical tanks and infrastructure need to be removed in a controlled manner by a registered contractor to minimise risks of further contamination. Soilfix ensure residual liquids are removed as far as practicable and vessels rendered inert prior to removal. Impacted soils can often be removed and treated 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) minimises ongoing risks and can be a cheaper alternative to removal.
Materials Recycling Peterborough
Soilfix is devoted to providing its clients with the most sustainable use of materials generated on the site. Measures often 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 corrupted strata; Composting of green waste; and off-site recycling of metalwork. These operations decrease traffic movements and reduce build costs.
