Flowable Fill (CLSM) · Sacramento 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.
We've built our Sacramento County routes around communities like Vineyard — morning staging, clear dispatch windows, and a call-ahead so your crew isn't standing around waiting on material. 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.
Vineyard is a Sacramento County community of roughly 24,836 residents, about 13 miles from our West Sacramento yard — typically 16–36 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.
Yes — Vineyard is part of our Sacramento County service area. Call dispatch at 916-248-2860 to schedule, or request a quote online and we will confirm timing for your address.
No minimum-truckload games — volumetric mixing means we batch on site and you pay for the yardage actually poured. Small Vineyard pours are welcome; see our short-load page.
Tell us what you're pouring and when. We'll bring the mix to your site and meter it by the yard — so every dollar you spend ends up in the forms.
