We appreciate it, thank you!

We get them from TMG Manufacturing

We have worked on a variety of projects.

It is quite shocking

We don't. We strictly work in FL at the moment.

Thanks for watching! We hope this was informative and helpful to you.

We appreciate the feedback!

Thank you! We are happy to hear that!

What slump range is correct for this type of compaction grouting?

@@JaySilverHeliconUSA R you familiar with the compaction grouting consensus guide standars ?

The correct slump range for this type of sinkhole repair compaction grouting is 4 to 6 inches. This project was designed and monitored by a geotechnical engineer. Who did slump tests while on site throughout the project. As of my last knowledge there isn't a specific "compaction grout census standard" that is widely recognized. However, standards related to grouting practices, materials, and testing are set by the engineer of record on the project. We appreciate your comments.

Why's that? It stabilizes structures for many years and is safe for the environment. Another name for it is poly-foam

@HeliconUSA Yes. I'm sure the structural properties are sound. But with microplastics and forever chemicals being big news, putting large amounts of "chemical grout" over my water table for my well doesn't sound like a good idea. I would suggest using a name that plays off the benefits of the structural integrity, not that its made from chemicals. Like in powerwashing, we don't say bleach. We say our "solution" or "fungicide". What sounds better "organic softwash" or "chemical house wash". Both are the same thing.

At least he’s being honest about the material which gives the home owner the option to buy or not.

@@Hmmm3990 It makes basic sense to advertise the benefits of your product not the negatives

Thanks Matt, we appreciate it! Glad it was helpful for you. Unfortunately, we don't. We only operate in Florida at this time.

Hello, it really depends on the scope of work. It can typically cost an upwards of several thousand dollars.

My house needs similar repair and it is that age. Buy once - cry once - dont give the situation a chance to worsen. That is exactly what I am about to resolve

@@jamesshaw3850 We're happy to hear that you're on the path to repair!

@@HeliconUSA Great Video! I am looking to tackle something similiar. I was planning to pour concrete for footings but I think i will use gravel as well. What size jacks are those or how would i spec out what size jacks to use for a single level house?

Hello Cheryl, where are you located?

This would only be a temporary fix. The only long term solution is what is explained in this video.

We are mainly located in Tampa, but we have offices in Fort Myers and Orlando.

The remnants of the chemical grout will come out but we quickly scoop them out of the water and barricade it off from spreading further. On top of this, our chemical grout is environmentally safe so it will not harm the water or any wildlife.

So ideally, if there`s an obvious void in the bulkhead (on the water side of the wall), it would need to be boarded up pre-grouting? @@HeliconUSA Thanks in advance for the insight!!

@@Jake-tt6mk Ideally, yes but if anything does come out we make sure to take out the remnants. No problem at all, thanks for checking out our content!

Jake the SWRP-1 permeation chemical grout will seal up small cracks and crevices that are allowing soil loss, but any large voids or openings would need to be covered prior to injecting the material behind the wall.

SWRP-1 Permeation Chemical Grout is able to be injected during high tide or low tide. we inject the material directly behind the seawall starting at 1 foot below the mud line using upward staging, which is injecting the material at 1 foot increments until we get to the surface. This improves critical soil stability behind the seawall, while permeating through all the cracks and crevices sealing them to prevent soil loss, which causes voids and depressions behind the seawall and soil instability. Soil stability behind the seawall protects critical elements of the wall, like the deadman which anchor the seawall cap, and provides structural rigidity. Stable soil behind your seawall is very important to ensuring you get the maximum life expectancy out of your seawall. Once the soil becomes unstable, the wall can shift or move, causing unwanted structural damage and cracking to the seawall, which then can lead to Spalling. Spalling is caused when the structural steel inside the wall become exposed to the elements through cracks in the wall. When seawalls fail, it’s usually due to the Domino Effect. The first Domino typically to fall is Soil Stability, then seawall movement or shifting, leading to cracking, which causes spalling and then the wall becomes so structurally damaged that seawall replacement is the only option. If you stop soil instability early on and have a proper pressure relief valve system (we recommend Jet Filters) then you have the best chance of getting the maximum life expectancy out of your seawall.

It’s typically 80% to 100% less than Seawall replacement. Doing nothing to address soil instability can lead to complete Seawall failure.

I`ve just called and set up an appointment. Thanks!!@@JaySilverHeliconUSA

Thank you!! 😄

Thank you!

It depends on the scope of work, but it can cost an upwards of at least $10K (depending on the damage).

Nothing is affordable these days unless your pay is increasing with inflation. I'm betting it isn't though. 3 years ago I got a quote to have a house that was smaller than this done and it was $10k and also included adding a concrete foundation. Bet if I quoted it now it'd be at least double that price...

@@williammcleroy558not necessarily

Hi, thanks for watching!

Hi Kimberly, thanks for reaching out! These prices fluctuate based on the scope of work, but our underpinning services are one of our most expensive. Chemical grouting is also another method of foundation repair, but much less expensive. If you call us at 844-Helicon, we can provide you more details about the possible price.

I don’t know lol I don’t know what I saw but what I do know is I lived in a house that was recently lifted before we moved in and all the walls had very back cracks in them and the ceiling in one of the rooms were about to fall in any minute

Thank you! :)

You're welcome, JB! We're glad this was helpful to you!

Thank you!!
