Excavation and development is detrimental to local soils. The topsoil is often stripped and either left in stockpiles or dumped.
Heavy equipment moves in and compacts the ground surface. What may already be poor subsoil suffers increased bulk density, water runoff, erosion and breakdown of structure.
SOILCO has a proven track record for soil amelioration projects working in conjunction with leading landscapers, civil contractors and landcare agencies.
