The brief
Our client had a parcel of land within their industrial estate that they wanted to utilise for future development.
The land was overgrown, heavily infested with Japanese Knotweed and fly-tipping had occured over a number of years, with various types of waste on site, including asbestos waste.
In addition to the above, there were a number of badger setts on site and bird nests. It was unclear if these were active.
The client also wanted the estate access road re-surfacing with speed bump installation to reduce speeding within the business park.
We provided a packaged solution to remediate the site and prepare for future development.
What we did
- Ecology Works (Badger survey, bird survey, investigation & monitoring works)
- Vegetation & tree clearance
- Fly-tipped waste removal
- Asbestos removal
- Complete excavation of all Japanese Knotweed affected soils and off-site, licensed disposal to landfill
- Haulage
- Backfill & site preparation
- Access road re-surfacing & finishing
The outcome
- All remediation works completed within the 4 week timescale and on budget
- Monitoring Programme & 10 Year Insurance Backed Guarantee issued for the site
- Client now able to use the site with no restrictions
A very professional company, who provided me with sound advice and really took good care of the project. The team completed the project within the time frame as promised. Highly recommend
