The Need for Void Filling

Sometimes soils shift, and sometimes pipes or tanks are put out of commission. In both instances, the problem is the same- a large void that needs to be filled to maintain the safety of the area. Especially around waterways, such as concrete dock entrances or riverwalks, soil wash out can cause large stretches of concrete to be unsupported and liable for damage. Tanks and pipes have a similar issue- a large area that needs to be compacted that is currently a large void. Whatever the void filling need, the solution has historically been a big headache and a hefty sum of money. JACKCRETE is changing that.

Foam Void Filling for Pipes, Tanks, and More

If you have a void that needs to be filled under a concrete structure, there is no better option than JACKCRETE. Using lightweight polyurethanes, any type of void can be filled and stabilized without adding any unwanted weight to the substrate. With a fast expansion rate and cure time, our void filling projects are usually completed within a matter of 30 minutes to 2 hours.

Pipe Decommissioning and Tank Filling

When an underground tank or pipe system is decommissioned, it can be a costly project to have it removed then backfill where it was located. Our solution is much less intrusive, and much less expensive. Rather than remove the tank or pipes, fill it with high-density polyurethane foam. Once the tank or pipes are filled, that section of earth is stabilized, and the structure can be covered.

Void Filling and Soil Reinforcement

When soil shifts from under your concrete, you are at high risk of that concrete cracking. JACKCRETE can inject our polyurethane foam directly into the void, both filling it and reinforcing the soil surrounding it. Since our foam is injected as a liquid, then expands, it fills all void space first, then creates pressure to compact and reinforce the soil. This unique property allows us to solve complex problems around your property at a much lower cost!
