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 achieved through efficient phasing, recycling of materials and managing pollution risks.
Site Clearances Bristol
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 pricey addition to demolition works and, where handled inaccurately, can worsen contamination problems.
At your brownfield site in Bristol, Soilfix can manage the clearance of waste and chemicals to meet legal requirements and lower environmental risks.
Dismantling and Demolition Bristol
Soilfix personnel are highly trained in above and below ground demolition works in Bristol. 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 Bristol demolition projects have included transport depots, service stations 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 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 more cost effective alternative to removal.
Materials Recycling Bristol
Soilfix is devoted 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 topsoil and subsoil 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.
