Seawalls and bulkheads are essential for protecting waterfront properties from the damaging effects of erosion, soil loss and wave action. However, with constant exposure to water, shifting soil and pressure, these structures can weaken and fail over time.
At Foamjection, we offer a solution for seawall stabilization and erosion control. Our seawall repair services use polyurethane foam to fix these issues so you don’t need to pay for a complete replacement. We can help repair seawall erosion quickly and effectively, restoring the strength and stability of your waterfront barrier.
Several signs indicate your seawall needs repairs, including:
Foamjection offers a noninvasive way to reinforce and stabilize your seawall. We’ll inject advanced polyurethane foam behind the wall to fill any empty spaces and create a strong foundation. This process will stop soil from washing away, sealing cracks and creating a barrier that prevents future erosion and extends your seawall’s life.
The polyurethane foam injection process is fast and causes minimal disruption. We can complete most repairs in a single day. This method is more durable and affordable than traditional repair options, saving time and money.
Here is a step-by-step breakdown of how we’ll fix your seawall:
A Foamjection contractor will thoroughly inspect your seawall to understand the damage. We’ll determine the best repair plan to stabilize your seawall for the long term.
We’ll use advanced technology to inject high-density polyurethane foam into any voids or cracks behind your seawall. The foam will expand to fill these gaps, compact the loose soil and provide the structural support needed to prevent further damage.
Once the foam hardens, it will reinforce the foundation of your seawall. This new, solid base will prevent water intrusion and soil erosion. This process strengthens seawalls without needing expensive and disruptive digging or rebuilding.
Our contractors will perform a final check to ensure stability after the complete polyurethane injection.
Common signs your seawall needs repairs include cracks, leaning, soil loss behind the wall, rust stains, voids or sinkholes, or water seeping through. If you notice any of these, it’s best to schedule an inspection.
Seawalls can deteriorate due to erosion, hydrostatic pressure, poor drainage, material degradation, tidal cycles, and severe weather conditions. Over time, water pressure behind the wall can cause cracking, bowing, or collapse if not properly maintained.
Polyurethane foam injection is a non-invasive repair method where expanding foam is injected behind the seawall. It stabilizes the soil, seals cracks, and prevents further erosion by creating a watertight barrier. It’s a fast, durable, and cost-effective solution compared to traditional repairs.
Most seawall repairs using polyurethane foam injection can be completed in one day with minimal disruption.
