Resin and Crack Injection

Resin and Crack Injection Service

Echo Square are industry leading experts in Resin and Crack Injections. This type of service is required when a concrete structure develops cracks over time. With a Resin injection we can effectively seal the crack in the concrete structure which stops the structure from leaking.

How Resin Injections Remedy Cracks

Resin Injections involve injecting a liquid epoxy resin into cracks, voids, or cavities in concrete to restore its integrity and prevent further damage. The resin hardens and bonds with the surrounding concrete, creating a strong and durable repair.

Although a concrete structure is strong and durable, cracks can easily show and water can escape through the cracks. Not good if this is a water tank! However a resin injection is perfect to seal the cracks and stop water leaking through.

The Process

Assessment

Before starting the injection, a thorough assessment of the concrete structure is conducted to identify the extent and nature of the damage. Furthermore this helps determine the appropriate injection technique and materials to be used.

Surface preparation

The surface of the concrete is prepared by cleaning it thoroughly and removing any loose debris or contaminants. This is typically done by using a wire brush, compressed air, or other suitable methods.

Injection ports installation

Small holes or ports are drilled into the concrete along the crack or affected area. These ports serve as access points for the resin injection and are spaced at regular intervals to ensure proper distribution of the epoxy.

Inection Time!

Then expoxy is injected into the prepared ports using specialized injection equipment, such as injection guns or pumps. As a result the resin flows through the cracks, filling voids and saturating the surrounding concrete.

Pressure..

In some cases, pressure is applied during the injection process to ensure that the epoxy reaches all the voids and effectively fills the cracks. The pressure also helps to compact the epoxy and enhance its bond with the concrete.

Curing and hardening

After the resin injection is complete, the epoxy needs time to cure and harden. This process usually takes several hours or days, depending on the specific epoxy product and environmental conditions. Once fully cured, the epoxy forms a strong, durable bond with the concrete, restoring its structural integrity.

The Benefits of Resin Injections

Structural Repair: Injections restore the integrity of the concrete.

Waterproofing: Epoxy resin seals and waterproofs surfaces.

Cost-effective: Resin injections are significantly more cost effective than labour intensive crack repairs

Speedy turnaround: Non-intrusive and fast!

We manage a large residential block and recently reached out to Echo to quote to reline two water tanks that were failing. An absolute fantastic service all round. A quote was received within a day or so. Works were booked in and communication was excellent. We were really impressed with the engineers on the day. They communicated well on the day in terms of the plan of action. Once the work was complete, they ensured all areas were left clean and tidy. A follow up report post works was sent very soon after the works.We look forward to working with Echo again. If you need honest, reliable contractors who will get the job done and to a high a standard, don't hesitate to get in touch with them.Thank you.

I contacted Echo Square on behalf of a client of mine who urgently needed her Victorian underground Cistern re lined. The work was quoted for promptly and the work carried out to a high standard by the engineers who were courteous and friendly despite their long drive to site. My client was very impressed and so grateful to have her Cistern back in working order. I would highly recommend this company and will most definitely approach them again should I have another client with tank issues in the future. 5 star service!

Having used other companies in the past I can wholeheartedly say that our dealings with Nationwide Tank Relining have been a breath of fresh air. We have had tanks relined, water hygiene assessments and floor coatings. All work was carried out in a timely manner and the quality of work has each and every time been exemplary. My bosses are thrilled with my decision to switch to Nationwide Tank Relining and a tank that was relined 10 years ago by them still looks good as new internally, and the money we've saved from choosing the right supplier has proven to be a very smart business move. Highly recommended!
