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!

Had a cold water tank in the loft full of dust, wasp and flies. Tanks were cleaned to a very good standard, considering the awkwardness of the job. Very happy with the service

We were carrying out plumbing works on a site in London where we discovered a badly leaking GRP water tank, the Echo Square Services team attended site as quickly as possible to repair the leak and reline the tank. We will definitely contact them next time we are faced with a similar issue - would highly recommend.

We had a heavily leaking metal water tank above our office which was leaking through our ceiling, Echo Square Services repaired the leak and relined the tank just two days after we made the enquiry!

Arrived very quickly when the crisis developed in the 100-year-old water tanks in this Grade 1 listed building; did what looks a highly professional job (re-lining two hard to get at tanks in the roof) all in one day - which involved working really late - and were careful to make no mess and cause no damage. So far, it looks a great job at a reasonable cost.

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!
