VOID FILLING

Advanced void filling solutions to stabilise ground beneath properties, preventing collapse and restoring safe, solid foundations.

WHAT IS VOID FILLING?

Void filling addresses underground cavities that form beneath buildings due to washout, dissolved limestone, former mining, collapsed drains, or decomposed organic material. These voids can cause sudden and dramatic subsidence if left untreated, potentially leading to structural collapse.

HOW IT WORKS

Geopolymer resin or cementitious grout is injected through small-diameter holes drilled into the ground. The material flows into voids, expanding to fill cavities and consolidating surrounding loose soils. Real-time monitoring ensures complete void filling without over-pressurising the ground.

KEY BENEFITS

Eliminates risk of sudden ground collapse
Fills cavities without excavation or disruption
Consolidates loose surrounding soils simultaneously
Completed quickly — typically within a single day
Lightweight materials won't overload weak ground
Permanent solution with certified results

OUR PROCESS

1

Ground Survey

Ground-penetrating radar or other geophysical methods to map void locations and extent.

2

Drilling

Small injection holes drilled to reach void locations with minimal surface disruption.

3

Injection

Expanding resin or grout pumped under controlled pressure to fill voids completely.

4

Monitoring

Real-time level monitoring ensures the ground is stabilised without lifting beyond target.

5

Verification

Post-treatment survey confirms voids are filled and ground is consolidated.

6

Report

Full engineering report provided for insurance and property records.

IDEAL FOR

Properties above former mining workings
Buildings on limestone with solution features
Homes with collapsed or leaking drains causing washout
Properties showing sudden or rapid settlement
Sites with known underground cavities from ground investigation
