Secure Your embankment with RAS 

If ground movement threatens your infrastructure, trust RAS to provide proven stabilisation solutions designed for lasting protection.

  • Installation of barriers and catch fences mitigate landslides or catch rockfall, protecting properties and infrastructure.

  • Use of gabion baskets filled with stone to reinforce slopes, control erosion, and provide structural stability.

  • Reinforcing and reshaping drainage channels to improve water flow and reduce soil erosion on slopes.

  • Installation of mechanical anchors to stabilise unstable ground and secure slope surfaces effectively.

  • Testing the strength and integrity of installed anchors to ensure long-term stability and safety.

  • Humane removal of burrowing animals that can compromise soil stability on slopes. Our services include 21-day badger exclusion and the construction of artificial setts for main breeding sets, helping to maintain soil stability and promote safe, sustainable management.

  • Injection of grout to fill voids, stabilise soils, and enhance the ground’s cohesion, preventing movement or failure.
