The Polymer Stabilization Process:
Step 1: Assess and Prepare
Determine cause of instability, explain the scope of work, protect surfaces, drill holes.
Step 2: Compact and Stabilize
Inject enough foam to stabilize the soil at all levels.
Step 3: Clean Up and Review
Clean the surface and review site with client to ensure their satisfaction.
Fact: One Square Foot of AP Lift Foam Can Support Up to 14,000 lbs.
The Problem
Poor compaction, water erosion, broken pipes, and organic material in the soil can all lead to soil instability. Traditional methods of soil stabilization can strengthen the soil directly under concrete and structures, but they do not address instability at deeper levels.
Other methods of addressing deep soil issues require heavy equipment, extended down time, and collateral property damage. These situations create problems for property owners and managers.
The Solution
Introducing the Deep Lock process! We employ a unique combination of high quality structural polymers along with the equipment and training needed to address deep soil issues. We can achieve soil stabilization and compaction on projects of all sizes with the smallest footprint and least amount of heavy equipment required.
The Deep Lock process is powerful, painless, and rapid. Deep Lock gets to the root of the problems in the soil, it stabilizes the soil at all levels, and accomplishes this with minimal imposition or downtime to the property owner/ manager.
