Expert Contaminated Land Remediation in Portsmouth, Portsmouth

Most homeowners and developers we speak to are worried about two things: safety and the dreaded red tape. Imagine you are all set to start building your dream extension or a new block of flats, only for the council to ask for a site investigation and environmental assessment. It is a common scenario in Portsmouth, especially given our local industrial heritage. We take the weight off your shoulders by managing the entire process, from the first soil sample to the final validation report.This validation report is your golden ticket. It is the document that proves to local authorities and planning departments that the land is now clean and safe for use. We do not just clear the dirt; we provide the scientific proof that your project meets all HSE guidelines and the Environmental Protection Act 1990. It is about giving you peace of mind that you are doing right by the local environment while keeping your project on track.

What exactly are we looking for when we are out on a job? Often, it is things like hydrocarbons (oily residues), heavy metals like lead or arsenic, or even chemical spills from decades ago. Our team uses a mix of modern techniques to deliver soil cleanup that works, whether that is treating the ground on-site or carefully removing it to a licensed facility. We are fully licensed waste carriers, so you will get a clear chain of custody for every skip or truckload that leaves your site.We also specialise in asbestos in soil in Portsmouth. It is surprisingly common to find fragments of AIB (asbestos insulating board) or old roof sheets buried in soil where buildings were knocked down years ago without proper care.
