Pressure grouting

Pressure grouting and leak sealing

Some leaks cannot be solved with a coating on top, because the water is already inside the concrete. In those cases we drill, fix packers and pump grout into the crack under pressure, filling the path from the inside out.

You probably need this if…

  • A crack that leaks every time it rains
  • Water dripping through a slab or a beam
  • Leakage in a water tank, sump or lift pit
  • Damp line along a construction joint
Why it happens

What causes it

The same wet patch can come from different places, and each one needs a different fix. This is what we look for on site.

  • 01

    Structural and shrinkage cracks

    Cracks that go through the member cannot be sealed from one face alone. They have to be filled along their depth.

  • 02

    Construction joints

    Where one pour of concrete meets the next, there is a natural line of weakness that water follows.

  • 03

    Honeycombing

    Pockets of poorly compacted concrete are open networks inside the member.

How we do it

Our pressure grouting process

Step by step, in this order. Nothing is skipped to finish a day early.

  1. 01

    Mark and drill

    The crack is followed and holes are drilled at an angle to intersect it, at regular spacing on both sides.

  2. 02

    Fix packers and seal the surface

    Packers, or nipples, are fixed in the holes and the surface of the crack is sealed so the grout does not simply escape.

  3. 03

    Inject under pressure

    Grout is pumped in from the lowest packer upwards, until it shows at the next one. That tells us the section is full.

  4. 04

    Remove and finish

    After the grout sets, the packers are removed and the holes are packed and finished flush.

What is included

  • Crack survey and marking
  • Drilling, packer fixing and surface sealing
  • Injection of cement-based or chemical grout as the situation demands
  • Removal of packers and finishing of holes
  • Check during the next rain or water test
