Emergency response
Slip? Secure it now.
A fresh slip gets worse with every hour of rain. Call us. We make it safe first, then plan the permanent fix.
What we do first
Make-safe, in order
- 01
Assess
Inspect the slip face, head scarp and runout from safe positions. Establish what is still moving.
- 02
Shore and cover
Temporary shoring where structures are at risk. Heavy-duty polythene over the exposed face to shed rain.
- 03
Control water
Divert surface water away from the head of the slip. Water drives movement; cutting it off slows the failure.
- 04
Plan the permanent fix
Scope the stabilisation works with your engineer or insurer: soil nailing, anchors, retaining, drainage.

Straight answers
Emergency work, plainly
How long does the covering last?+
Our heavy-duty polythene is a temporary measure designed to last several months while you arrange permanent repairs. It is UV resistant but severe storms may require maintenance.
Is this a permanent fix?+
No. This is a "make-safe" measure to reduce water saturation and prevent immediate erosion. You will still need a permanent retaining or stabilization solution.
