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 Huddersfield
Toxic waste from previous industrial activities can be left behind, including fuel & chemical residues. In an ideal world this would have been cleared by previous occupants. Where not, they can prove a costly addition to demolition works and, where handled incorrectly, can worsen contamination problems.
Soilfix can manage waste/chemical clearance at your brownfield site in Huddersfield to ensure compliance with legislative requirements and reduce risks to the environment.
Dismantling and Demolition Huddersfield
Soilfix personnel are highly trained in above and below ground demolition works in Huddersfield. 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 Huddersfield demolition projects have included transport depots, waste water treatment works 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 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 competent contractor to minimise risks of further contagion. Soilfix takes measures to effectively remove residual liquids and renders vessels inert before their removal. Impacted soils can often be treated and removed 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 more cost effective alternative to removal.
Materials Recycling Huddersfield
Soilfix is committed to providing its clients with the most sustainable use of materials generated on the site. Measures generally include: Crushing of concrete, brick and tarmac to form engineered fill; Reuse of sub-grade granular materials; Improvement of the geotechnical properties of existing materials; Manufacture of subsoil and topsoil from contaminated strata; Composting of green waste; and off-site recycling of metalwork. These operations decrease traffic movements and reduce build costs.
