GROUND SOLUTIONS

With development taking place on increasingly difficult and steep sites, our clients look to us to provide solutions.

Soil erosion can be prevented through use of:

• Specialist geotextiles
• Soil nailing
• Soil stabilization systems
• Hydroseeding

If a site is cut and filled there will be a need for some form of retaining structure.

Alternatives to the traditional block or concrete retaining wall solutions are to use one of a number of proven and visually more appealing options.

We can advise, design and install:

• Crib walling
• Soil panels
• Steel mesh retaining structures
• Decking
• Devon banks
• Cornish hedges
• Timber revetment using recycled telegraph poles or similar materials

CRIB WALLING

• Rapid & economic construction
• Potential re-use of on-site fill
• High levels of durability
• Tolerant of differential settlement
• Attractive range of styles
• Design solutions for specific problems
• Aesthetically pleasing - can be softened with planting

Vegetation can be established on all of the above if required. The traditional art of turf clad Devon banks and natural stone Cornish hedges are also services that can be offered.
