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 Swindon
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 pricey addition to demolition works and, where handled inaccurately, can aggravate contamination problems.
Soilfix can manage waste/chemical clearance at your brownfield site in Swindon to ensure compliance with legislative requirements and reduce risks to the environment.
Dismantling and Demolition Swindon
Soilfix personnel are proficient in above and below ground demolition works in Swindon. Combining these works with remediation can reduce costs, maximise beneficial re-use of demolition materials and reduce the risk of environmental impacts.
Previous Swindon demolition projects have included Waste water treatments works, transport depots and service stations. Before initiating any demolition activities, Soilfix conducts comprehensive risk assessments and ensures a clear understanding of client specifications and site limitations. Where required, Soilfix can also manage the safe removal of hazardous building materials such as asbestos and lead-based paints.
Tank Removal / Treatment
Fuel/chemical tanks and infrastructure need to be removed in a controlled manner by a competent contractor to minimise risks of further contamination. Soilfix takes measures to effectively remove residual liquids and renders vessels inert before their removal. Impacted soils can often be removed and treated simultaneously.
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 Swindon
Soilfix is dedicated to providing its clients with the most sustainable use of materials generated on the site. Measures frequently 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. By taking these measures traffic movements are reduced and costs are reduced.
