Our Process

conditions.

Based on soil type and project goals, we determine the ideal blend of lime or cement.

3. Application and Mixing:

Specialized equipment applies and mixes materials to the required depth for uniform treatment.

4. Verification:

With support from accredited testing partners, we confirm density/compaction, strength, and moisture benchmarks to help deliver uniform, long-lasting modification.

Once stabilized, the subgrade is ready for compaction, paving, or structural foundations.
