Efficient Culvert Sealing and Stabilization
Groundworks provides targeted culvert rehabilitation using polyurethane to seal leaks, fill voids, and stabilize surrounding soils. This quick, adaptable solution minimizes downtime, restores support to culverts, and reinforces structures above, even in tight or remote locations.
Swift Sealing and Soil Stabilization for Culverts
Groundworks’ culvert rehabilitation service offers a quick, effective solution for sealing leaking culverts and stabilizing surrounding soils. Our polyurethane process supports structures above, prevents inflow issues, and restores culvert integrity for essential infrastructure in commercial, industrial, and government settings.
Targeted Polyurethane Injection for Culvert Rehabilitation
Our culvert rehabilitation solution uses polyurethane to address issues in aging or compromised culverts. Injected either within the culvert or from the surface, polyurethane expands to seal leaks, fill annular voids, and stabilize the soil around the structure. This adaptable approach not only restores the culvert’s functionality but also reinforces the support for roadways and other structures above, ensuring lasting stability with minimal disruption.
Indicators of Culvert Deterioration
Aging or compromised culverts can cause a variety of issues, from structural instability to erosion. These signs indicate that rehabilitation may be necessary.
- Water Inflow and Infiltration: Increased water leakage through culvert joints or seams.
- Visible Cracks and Deformation: Structural cracks or warping in concrete or metal culverts.
- Eroded or Unstable Soil: Soil erosion around the culvert leading to loss of support.
- Voids around Culvert Structure: Open spaces around the culvert indicating potential ground loss.
- Surface Settling Above Culvert: Sinking or settling on the road or ground above the culvert.
Benefits of Culvert Rehabilitation
Groundworks’ culvert rehabilitation solution restores essential infrastructure support, enhancing durability and minimizing future issues.
- Non-Invasive Application: Polyurethane injection requires minimal excavation, reducing disruption.
- Fast, Efficient Process: Quick installation allows for timely restoration of culverts.
- Reinforces Soil Stability: Expanding polyurethane densifies and stabilizes soil around the culvert.
- Effective in Any Location: Suitable for remote, high-traffic, or confined locations.
- Supports Overlying Structures: Provides a stable base for roadways and other infrastructure above the culvert.

Products We Use
Polyurethane Injections
What We Do
We rehabilitate culverts using high-density polyurethane injection to fill voids, stabilize surrounding soils, and seal against water infiltration. Our solutions enhance structural integrity and extend the lifespan of culverts.
How It Works
We inject high-density polyurethane into targeted areas around the culvert. The foam expands to fill gaps, stabilize the soil, and create a watertight seal, preventing erosion and ensuring long-lasting performance.
