Land Remediation

Land remediation and stabilisation

Land remediation and stabilisation comprise a series of processes that aim to return the land to a clean and safe condition. This type of work may be used to return brownfield sites to a more natural state, or it may also be used to convert previously unusable or contaminated land into a space suitable for development.

The condition of the site in need of remediation could be the result of many different factors. For example, it could have once been an industrial site that is now covered in remnants of hazardous waste. Issues such as high water tables or soil degradation could also be culprits.

Whatever the cause of the land degradation, getting the site back to a usable condition requires specialist knowledge and expert capabilities.

As a leader in the UK civil engineering and infrastructure sector, ECL is an ideal choice for carrying out a wide range of groundworks and excavation projects, and we have particular experience in remediation and stabilisation services.
