Methods
URETEK has unique proven methods that, with minimum disruption and no excavation, save our clients' time and money, taking the stress out of repairing sunken concrete, subsiding structures and filling voids.
URETEK methods provide number of advantages over more traditional underpinning techniques. URETEK methods are very efficient and convenient. The set-up time, injection procedure and curing time are accomplished, in full, in a matter of hours - rather than days or even weeks required for alternatives. URETEK methods do not depend on hydraulic pressure to lift. The boundaries of the subsided areas to be raised are readily controlled, so there are fewer chances of slab cracking and breakage. URETEK methods allow accurate surface realignment and repair of concrete slabs, by quite simply raising the slab back to the level it should be - and resupporting it. The small number and size of injection holes can allow injection through floor coverings (or along carpet edges) and finishes (including vinyl, tiles and parquetry), where removal may not be practical. URETEK methods have been proven over 30 years experience throughout Europe, the Americas and Australasia.
