Repair options we may recommend

Slab void filling and lifting

Small holes are drilled through the floor, and resin is fed into the void between the slab and the fill. As it expands it fills the gap and can lift the slab by small, controlled amounts. Floor coverings are lifted locally and the holes filled afterwards.

Best for: Sunken concrete ground floors and garage slabs

Resin alongside other repairs

Injection often forms one part of a wider scheme: drains repaired first, resin under the affected section, then crack stitching and making good once readings settle. On a mixed site, one wall may suit resin while another needs conventional underpinning instead.

Best for: Localised settlement within a broader subsidence repair

What to expect when we carry out resin injection ground stabilisation

Is resin suitable?
Send photos and any reports you hold. We give a free initial assessment, and an independent engineer then checks soil type, depth to firm ground and the cause. We can arrange the engineer. Clay and tree problems need particular care.
Injection day
Holes are drilled, tubes placed and resin injected in stages while laser levels on the wall are watched for any rise. Most domestic jobs are done from outside, with little mess. Holes are filled and joints made good at the end.
Level monitoring
Readings after treatment show whether the ground is holding. Once they are steady, cracks are stitched and redecoration can follow. If a section keeps moving, the engineer decides whether further injection or a different method is needed.

Rules for resin injection ground stabilisation in England

In England, underpinning and other work that alters or strengthens a wall or foundation is building work under the Building Regulations (Part A, structure), so building control approves and inspects it. Like-for-like repairs often are not, and we tell you which applies before a price is agreed. Work to a party wall, or excavation close to a neighbour’s foundations, can also need a notice under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996.

Your resin injection ground stabilisation questions

What is the price of resin injection ground stabilisation in Sunbury-on-Thames?

Guide prices for resin injection ground stabilisation in Sunbury-on-Thames start from about £895 per metre of wall treated, including VAT, on South East rates. Your fixed written price follows photos or a survey and depends on the extent of the work and access.

Do you carry out resin injection ground stabilisation in Sunbury-on-Thames?

We do. Sunbury-on-Thames and the surrounding area are covered, including nearby Ashford and Weybridge. A free initial assessment from your photos is the first step.

Does the ground around Sunbury-on-Thames cause cracking?

North Surrey sits on London Clay, the south on Weald Clay, with chalk along the North Downs and sands in the west. Large gardens with mature trees on clay make seasonal subsidence a familiar problem. Only an investigation can say why a particular building has moved.

Is resin injection better than underpinning?

It is better for some jobs and unsuitable for others. Resin is quicker and less disruptive where the problem is loose or washed-out soil close to the footing. Underpinning or mini-piles are usually the safer choice for deep soft ground or clay dried by trees that cannot be removed.

Can resin injection lift my house back to level?

It can produce small, controlled lifts, but it is not a way to jack a house back to its original position. The main aim is to stabilise the ground. Laser levels are watched throughout so injection stops before the lift strains the walls or opens new cracks.
