At a job site, shoring protects the neighboring buildings and workers from a potential collapse during the backfill process. Between the two homes is a large hole in the earth.

Backfill

Backfill is the process of refilling an excavated area after a foundation, trench, or alternative structure has been built. This process can protect your structure from shifting or settling from loose soil, water damage, and unnecessary environmental stresses. Backfilling requires skill, heavy equipment, knowledge of soil conditions while juggling specifications and contract requirements.

The benefits of a proper backfill can save you from costly repairs in the future:

  • Structural support

  • Sufficient drainage

  • Foundation protection

  • Thermal insulation

  • Site restoration
