Our Process

Our process is designed for precision, performance, and reliability:

1. Site Evaluation:

We analyze soil composition, moisture levels, and project
conditions.

2. Material Selection:

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:

Density, strength, and moisture levels are tested to ensure consistent, long-term stability.

5. Final Grading:

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