Flowable Fill (CLSM) · El Dorado 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.
If Pollock Pines weather turns on pour day, on-site batching is forgiving: nothing is mixed until conditions and crew are ready, so a pushed start costs patience, not a load of concrete. Summer valley heat is real concrete weather: early-morning windows help, and because the material is batched on arrival, none of its working time is lost to a hot highway ride.

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.
