Pressure Grouting: What is it?

So you’re having water problems due to spring storms? If you see large cracks in your walls or foundation, they need to be addressed as soon as possible as they could be the root of the issue. Pressure grouting is a great solution to waterproofing problems that you may be having around your home due to large cracks.

Pressure Grouting

Pressure grouting is a method in which grout is injected into pre-drilled holes in the wall. The grout will strengthen the wall, eliminate cracks, and provide you with a more secure foundation in terms of waterproofing. Water will not have a way in with all of the holes blocked with grout. This method is preferable to other methods that would use heavy machinery or take a lot of time and money.
