Why Polyurethane Seawall Repair is a Great Solution

Polyurethane is a commonly used material for repairing seawalls, particularly for addressing erosion, voids, and leaks. It's injected into cracks and voids, where it expands and bonds with the surrounding soil and seawall material, forming a strong, water-resistant seal. This process can effectively stop water infiltration, stabilize the soil, and prevent further erosion. 

Benefits of Polyurethane Seawall Repair:

• Effective Leak Repair:

  Polyurethane foam can quickly stop leaks, even high-volume ones, by sealing cracks and voids. 

• Soil Stabilization:

  It fills voids and binds soil particles, preventing further erosion and settlement. 

• Long-Lasting:

  Once cured, polyurethane provides a durable and watertight seal that can last for many years. 

• Minimal Disruption:

  Polyurethane injection can often be performed with minimal excavation, reducing disruption to the surrounding area. 

• Environmentally Friendly:

  Marine-grade polyurethane products are NSF-certified, meeting strict environmental standards.

• Fast Curing:

  Polyurethane foams typically react with moisture and cure quickly, allowing for rapid restoration of the seawall. 

• Cost-Effective:

  Compared to full seawall replacement, polyurethane repair can be a more affordable solution. 

How it Works:

• Identification and Preparation:

  • Professionals identify areas needing repair, such as cracks, voids, or leaks. 

• Injection:

  • A specialized pump is used to inject polyurethane foam into the targeted areas. 

• Reaction and Expansion:

  • The polyurethane reacts with moisture in the soil and surrounding material, expanding to fill the voids and form a solid, waterproof mass. 

• Curing:

  • The foam cures quickly, forming a strong, durable seal that prevents further water infiltration and erosion.
