Sunbelt Sealing is all about stabilizing and shoring up the structural integrity of your concrete surfaces. Whether you’re facing soil voids, sinking slabs, unstable foundations or other factors that undermine the durability and strength of concrete, Sunbelt Sealing has solutions that work. For a trusted name and high quality results in pressure grouting and slab stabilization, we are the team to call.
What is Pressure Grouting?
This is a process that stabilizes the soil, rock, or voids underneath existing concrete structures and surfaces. Sunbelt sealing injects a pressurized grout material to fill gaps, strengthen the foundation, and ultimately stabilize a structure that may be shifting or sinking.
Types of Pressure Grouting
Every situation is unique and has different needs. A Sunbelt Sealing expert will first assess your specific situation and determine the best course of action to stabilize your cement foundation or slab. There are various types of pressure grouting we may potentially apply, each ideal for a different purpose.
- Permeation grouting: This is where a chemical or cement-type of grout fills voids and fissures, and permeates loose soil.
- Compaction grout: When your structure or cement surface is built on weak soil that is settling, we can inject a thick, low-mobility grout that compacts the soil.
- Polyurethane grouting: For slabs that need to be lifted or leveled with minmial disruption to the activities or structure on the slab, we can inject a lightweight, expanding foam.
- Cementitious grout: A cement grout is ideal for filling voids and stabilizing structures that require high-strength solutions.
What is Slab Stabilization?
Similar to pressure grouting is slab stabilization which also injects grout into the soil beneath a concrete slab. In some cases, soil around a concrete slab is undermined by erosion, oversaturation, or insufficient compaction, leading the soil underneath and around the slab to become degraded, spread out to the sides through liquefaction, and lose stability. Sunbelt Sealing can restore the support to the slab, prevent further movement, and extend the lifespan of the slab with our reliable stabilization process.
How does slab stabilization work? We’ll drill small holes into the slab that is affected. Then we inject grout (the type depends on the specific application and project needs) underneath the slab to stabilize the foundation. The grout fills the holes and the voids under the foundation, then hardens, restoring the load bearing capacity of the slab. The drilled holes are then patched, leaving the slab level, sealed, and stabilized.
