Combining Works

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

  • Having a senior 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 highly skilled 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

The presence of a contractor well-versed in contamination and waste legislation can prove highly advantageous for brownfield cut & fill projects, offering substantial returns. Soilfix can maximise the re-use of materials on site through careful management and application of remedial technologies. 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 Derby 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 Derby

As well as immobilising contaminants, stabilisation can be tailored to meet the construction objectives of a project. Soilfix has a large amount of 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 Derby.

Infrastructure in Contaminated Ground

Soilfix have the ability in-house to complete contaminated ground infrastructure works in Derby such as large drainage runs, service trenches, interceptors, attenuation tanks, etc. Where installed in contaminated strata, such works can have great implications for the health & safety of site workers and elevated costs associated with management, environmental controls and waste disposal. Having all the required skills in-house, Soilfix is often 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 environmental and health & safety obligations.
