FOAM & EPOXY Injection


Injecting is a procedure of pumping cement-based, polyurethane-based, epoxy-based or acrylate-based material into damaged or cracked structures to securely seal leaks, repair compromised structures and make them watertight again for the long term.

Epoxy Injection will restore the structural integrity of the crack or defect in the concrete by filling the crack with a high-strength adhesive that essentially ‘welds’ the cracked wall back together.  Filling the crack or joint with these high-strength epoxies eliminates the movement that would otherwise occur due to  temperature swings and wet/dry seasonal cycles.    

Epoxies formulated for use in structural and load bearing applications are classified and specified according to the ASTM C-881 specifications of Type, Grade and Class.  

WHAT'S COVERED IN OUR EPOXY INJECTIONS SYSTEM:

Identifying Problem Sources Cleaning of Application Zone Curing Of Epoxy

Repairing Cracks in Concrete Proper Application of Epoxy

Foam Injection also fills the crack or joint with a resin that expands in the presence of moisture. Unlike epoxy, polyurethane foam is flexible enough to accommodate movement in the crack or joint due to changing soil pressures or minor settlement. Foam systems expand during the injection, less resin is required to accomplish the repair and can be much more economical to install—especially in wide cracks and loose soil conditions.
