Soil stabilisation is an important step for fixing weak or contaminated soil. Without it, the land can face problems like:
Our in-depth soil testing and analysis allow us to identify any contamination issues, such as oil spills, metal contamination, or hazardous waste, before beginning stabilisation work.
We use both chemical and mechanical methods to stabilise your site’s soil for better load-bearing capacity, reduce erosion, and improve the soil quality.
Our ground improvement techniques stabilise inert soils to remediate contaminated ground.
To provide practical solutions that support the improvement of your project, we consider elements including groundwater hazards, oil contamination, and regional environmental laws.
Soil stabilisation is the process of improving the strength, stability, and load-bearing capacity of soil to make it suitable for construction, farming, or other uses. It often involves using chemical or mechanical methods to treat the soil.
Stabilising soil ensures a safe and strong foundation for construction projects, reduces soil erosion, and improves the overall quality of the ground. It also helps prevent structural problems caused by weak or shifting soil.
We use both:
Chemical stabilisation: Adding materials like lime or cement to strengthen the soil and reduce moisture.
Mechanical stabilisation: Compacting or reinforcing the soil to increase its stability and load-bearing capacity.
Yes, we conduct thorough soil testing and analysis to identify contamination, weak spots, or other issues before beginning stabilisation work. This ensures our solutions are tailored to your site’s specific needs.
Soil stabilisation is essential for:
Yes, we provide ground improvement solutions for contaminated soil. Our techniques help stabilise inert soils and remediate contamination to make the site safe and usable.
The timeline depends on the size of the site and the level of work required. Small projects may take a few days, while larger or more complex sites may take weeks. We provide a clear schedule once we assess your site.
