Solid Filling Tanks

Where redundant underground tanks need to be made permanently safe, but it is not practicable or cost effective to remove them, we can solid fill them using approved materials.

Existing surface covers can either be replaced or the manhole chambers made good to ground level.

Removal of Solid Filled Tanks

Often solid filled tanks are in the way of future development. To deal with this we have developed the use of air driven cutting tools to safely cold cut open such tanks. This enables the fill material to be disposed of safely.

In situations where it is not practicable to remove a whole solid filled tank, this cold cutting method enables us to cut large sections from the tank.

When dealing with RG22, all precautions are taken to ensure it does not come into contact with skin and is not inhaled. We also ensure the material itself is kept under control, both on the site and when being transported off-site to a licensed landfill facility.
