Backfilling is a necessary process during any excavation process. Unfortunately, most people don't realize how important backfilling is and often use the wrong materials or do not compact the soil well enough. This causes problems, for example, if a foundation is not properly backfilled, shifting could occur that could jeopardize the structure and result in expensive foundation repair that could have been prevented. When backfilling in CT, it is important to know:

• Which material to use (rock, sand, dirt, concrete, etc.)
• The soil composition around a foundation
• The weight capacity of the object being backfilled (roads, walkways, drains)

Attempting large backfilling jobs without experience could be detrimental to the project and you could put your safety at risk. Always consult with a professional excavation company before attempting backfilling.
