Erosion of soil is a very common problem. Whether it be ground water movement, drainage, rodents or sprinklers, when soil is carried away settling concrete is sure to follow. So what should you do if you notice erosion around or under your concrete slabs?

Many people will attempt to fill these voids with dirt, sand or gravel and while something is better than nothing none of these solutions are able to generate any upward pressure on the concrete so not much support is possible. Even worse is when homeowners pour concrete in those areas of erosion. Concrete is a very heavy material, in addition to being unable to generate any upward pressure on the slab the added burden on the soil often speeds settling.

Available in several densities geo-polymer injection becomes a very economical and fast process with most jobs done in an hour or two.
