Home » Seawall Repair
Seawalls and bulkheads protect waterfront properties from erosion, soil loss, and wave action, but over time, they can deteriorate due to constant exposure to water, shifting soil, and hydrostatic pressure. Seawall replacement is extremely expensive and often requires barge access, significantly increasing costs. Property owners need a cost-effective seawall repair solution that restores strength without a full replacement—Foamjection’s seawall stabilization and erosion control system is the answer.
Bulkheads serve as critical barriers, protecting waterfront properties from erosion and water intrusion. Over time, these structures can weaken due to soil loss, water pressure, and aging materials, leading to voids, cracks, and instability. Foamjection offers an advanced, non-invasive solution to restore and reinforce bulkheads without the need for costly and disruptive replacements.
If your bulkhead is showing signs of settling, cracking, or erosion, Foamjection’s polyurethane injection technology can restore its strength and effectiveness. Contact us today to schedule an inspection and get a long-term solution for your waterfront protection!
Waterfront property owners need a reliable, long-lasting solution to protect their seawalls from erosion and structural failure. Foamjection’s seawall repair process offers an innovative alternative to costly replacements, using advanced polyurethane foam injection to reinforce and stabilize weakened seawalls. This non-invasive method fills voids, stops soil loss, and extends the life of your seawall—saving time and money while ensuring durability.
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.
Yes! In many cases, seawall repair is a viable alternative to full replacement. Advanced repair methods like polyurethane foam injection can extend the life of your seawall for years at a fraction of the cost of replacement.
The Foam of Choice when Water is Present, HMI HydroFoam™ is a heavy duty polyurethane foam specifically designed for jobs where water or moisture is present. This foam was designed to set up in the presence of water and to maintain strength in wet environments.
