Some water problems are already happening, a leak, a failing joint, water finding its way through a structure. Others haven't happened yet, but the risk is visible, a dam, a containment pond, an excavation near rising groundwater. URETEK's Waterproofing and Leak Mitigation services address both, sealing what's already leaking and cutting off water before it becomes a leak at all, all without excavation.
The right fix depends on which one you're facing, an active leak that needs to be closed, or a risk that needs to be blocked before it becomes one.
Water intruding through joints, penetrations, or fine-grained soil that a standard barrier can't seal precisely
Manholes, sewer lines, and structural connections leaking and straining the systems around them
Expansion and construction joints in tunnels, pavements, and structures letting water through
Dams, containment ponds, and excavation sites at risk from groundwater that hasn't broken through yet
Our Services
Creating a continuous, low-viscosity chemical grout barrier behind structures to block groundwater intrusion at joints, penetrations, and fine-grained soil.
Building a continuous underground barrier that blocks water from moving into or through a protected dam, pond, excavation site, or structure.
Injecting material directly around a leaking or separated joint to close its path, without removing or replacing the surrounding structure.
Injecting polymer directly at the leak point, sealing manholes, sewer lines, pipe joints, and structural connections without excavation.
If water hasn't broken through yet, but the risk is visible, a dam, a pond, an excavation near rising groundwater, that's Groundwater Cutoff, a proactive barrier. If a specific joint or connection is already leaking, Structural Leak Sealing or Joint Sealing addresses that directly, depending on whether it's a defined joint or a broader connection. If the barrier needs to reach unusually fine-grained soil or tight joints with precision, that's Chemical Curtain Grouting.
Every job in this category ends with a verification step, permeability testing, third-party confirmation, or a visible-seepage check, before the crew leaves. On a Florida condominium's parking garage, roughly 700 injection points across 102 access locations built a barrier that's held since, confirmed complete before the project closed out.
Yes, in almost every case. A California manhole repair was completed in under a day, and an Arizona railroad crossing over a leaking culvert was repaired with zero downtime for rail traffic throughout the project.
In most cases, yes. In Knoxville, Tennessee, a manhole and pipe repair avoided the cost and time of a 25-foot excavation entirely, work that would have been required under a traditional dig-and-replace approach.
Yes. Several of the case studies behind these services are emergency responses, from storm damage to accidental utility breaches. Crews mobilize on the schedule the site needs, including nights, weekends, and true emergencies.
