Flowable Fill (CLSM) · Placer County
Flowable fill — controlled low-strength material (CLSM) — is a self-leveling, self-compacting slurry that replaces compacted backfill. It flows into trenches and voids, sets firm enough to support loads, and can be excavated later if the utility ever needs to come back up.
Volumetric batching is ideal for CLSM: quantities are metered on the spot, so a long trench or an odd-shaped void gets filled without guessing truckloads in advance.
What Lincoln customers notice first is what's missing — no anxious countdown while a barrel truck fights traffic from a distant plant. The materials arrive dry, the mixing happens at your forms, and workability is exactly what it should be. Repeat contractors get a rhythm going with dispatch — standing windows, familiar mixes, and a call-ahead system that keeps crews placing instead of waiting.

Lincoln is a Placer County community of roughly 49,757 residents, about 25 miles from our West Sacramento yard — typically 40–60 minutes for a mixer to reach, traffic willing.

Utility trench backfill, filling abandoned pipes, tanks, and vaults, and structural void fill. It eliminates compaction in lifts — the material consolidates itself and supports load when set.
Standard CLSM mixes are designed to be excavatable with normal equipment, which is why utilities prefer them over lean concrete for trench work. Tell us the intended use and we will batch the right strength.
No minimum-truckload games — volumetric mixing means we batch on site and you pay for the yardage actually poured. Small Lincoln pours are welcome; see our short-load page.
