Combining Works

As part of our site enabling earthworks in Cambridge, Soilfix can combine remediation works with civil engineering adding value and reducing the risks through:

  • Having the same contractor responsible for health and safety on these elements;
  • Reducing project costs (e.g. increase in recycling);
  • Reducing programmes; and,
  • Preventing cross contamination.

As a competent contractor often filling the role of Principal Contractor, we employ well trained and experienced operatives and Sub-Contractors that can deliver high quality, innovative and cost effective solutions to individual projects, no matter how big or small.

Cut and Fill

Having a contractor with a good understanding of contamination and waste legislation can pay dividends on brownfield cut & fill projects. With the correct management and remedial technologies, Soilfix optimise the re-use of materials on-site resulting in less waste or recycling cost. This can result in a significant reduction in the cost of off-site disposal and soil import. The cut and fill exercise itself can also become an important component of a remediation strategy.

All Soilfix cut and fill services in Cambridge are carried out fully in accordance with CL:AIRE Code of Practice, to ensure clients remain legally compliant when soils and recovered aggregates are re-used on-site.

Soil Stabilisation / Solidification Cambridge

In addition to immobilising contaminants, stabilisation can be tailored to meet the construction goals of a project. Soilfix has significant experience in soil stabilisation to form a piling mat, capping layer or engineered fill below the development platform. Get in touch today to speak more about our soil stabilisation services in Cambridge.

Infrastructure in Contaminated Ground

Soilfix have the ability in-house to complete contaminated ground infrastructure works in Cambridge such as attenuation tanks, interceptors, large drainage runs, service trenches, etc. Where installed in infected strata, such works can have significant implications for the health & safety of site workers and elevated costs associated with management, environmental controls and waste disposal. Having all the necessary skills in-house, Soilfix is frequently able to reduce costs associated with such works, particularly when in conjunction with remediation. Soilfix can also assist other contractors on site to meet their health & safety and environmental obligations.
