Settlement doesn't always look the same. Sometimes it's a single sunken slab. Sometimes it's a foundation losing bearing capacity generally. Sometimes an entire building has tilted, or a retaining wall is under pressure from the soil behind it. URETEK's Structural Support services address each of these differently, matched to the actual scale and cause of the problem, all through polymer injection, without excavation.
A trip hazard on a single sidewalk slab and a building settling unevenly across its whole footprint are both settlement, but they call for different fixes.
Sunken slabs, walkways, and pavement creating trip hazards and drainage problems
Foundations losing bearing capacity under heavy or constant loads
An entire structure settling unevenly, out of level across more than one point
Retaining walls under pressure from eroded, shifted, or displaced soil behind them
Our Services
Raising settled concrete, slabs, walkways, and pavement back to grade by injecting expanding polymer beneath it, without tearing it out and pouring new concrete.
Reinforcing weak soil through polymer injection, restoring bearing capacity and correcting settlement without excavating or rebuilding the foundation.
Injecting polymer into the soil behind a retaining wall to restore the lateral support it lost, with no excavation.
Injecting expanding polymer at multiple points across a building's footprint, lifting and realigning the structure as a whole.
Scale is usually the deciding factor. One sunken slab or walkway is Concrete Leveling. A foundation generally losing bearing capacity, without an obvious tilt yet, is Foundation Stabilization. An entire structure out of level across more than one point is Structural Re-leveling. Pressure or movement in the soil behind a wall is Retaining Wall Stabilization. A project manager can confirm which one applies during the initial site evaluation.
URETEK 486 Star polymer cures to 99% of its final strength within minutes, and every job starts with a project manager evaluating the actual cause of settlement, not a standard package. At a Tennessee hospital, an entire settled section of the building was lifted and stabilized, not just patched at the surface.
Yes, in almost every case. At a Broome County, New York landfill, entrance and exit slabs were lifted and aligned in under two days, and at a Denver middle school, thermal storage units were repaired and returned to service in a single day.
Yes. At Texas Motor Speedway, persistent track dips were corrected in three days without disrupting the venue's schedule. Structural Support work is routinely planned around a site's actual operating constraints, not the other way around.
In most cases, yes, since there's no demolition, excavation, or extended closure involved. The specific savings depend on the service and the site, but every Structural Support service is built around restoring what's there instead of replacing it.
Get your structure evaluated before a small settlement becomes a bigger problem. URETEK crews respond fast, including emergencies.
