Soil swelling and shrinking are significant issues that can lead to costly damages and structural failures. *Studies have shown that these problems cause more damage to structures than all natural disasters combined. The primary culprit is expansive clay soil, which expands when wet and contracts when dry, leading to ground movement that can compromise the integrity of your foundations.

In the realm of soil stabilization, two common methods are often considered:

This method involves adding moisture to the soil to reduce its expansion potential. While it can be effective, it requires continuous monitoring and maintenance to ensure that moisture levels remain consistent. This can be labor-intensive and costly over time, especially in regions with varying weather conditions.

This technique involves replacing the problematic soil with select fill materials, such as sand or gravel, which have better drainage properties and are less likely to expand. Although effective in many cases, this method can be expensive due to the cost of materials and the labor required to excavate and replace the existing soil.

Prochemical’s solution offers a 40% cost saving compared to traditional soil stabilization methods. Our commitment to quality and innovation means that you can confidently offer homeowners a six-year foundation warranty, backed by our proven results. This extended warranty provides a competitive edge in the market, assuring potential buyers of the durability and reliability of their new homes.

Our approach at Prochemical Soil Stabilization is highly effective because we understand the entire construction process. With over thirty years of experience, we have developed a robust system that integrates seamlessly with developers’ workflows. Our early on-site presence and meticulous tracking ensure smooth operations, keeping construction schedules on track and guaranteeing the stability of each foundation.

Prochemical’s solution offers several advantages that make it more economical compared to traditional methods:

• Material Efficiency: Our proprietary ionic solution requires smaller quantities compared to the large volumes of select fill materials. This translates to significant cost savings on materials.
• Labor and Time Savings: Our injection process is quick and straightforward, reducing the labor costs associated with more labor-intensive methods like moisture conditioning or the extensive excavation required for select fill.
• Minimal Disruption: Because our method involves injecting the solution directly into the soil, it causes minimal disruption to the construction site. This allows other construction activities to continue unhindered, saving time and reducing project delays.
• Longevity and Reliability: Our solution provides long-lasting stabilization, reducing the need for future repairs and maintenance. This long-term reliability results in additional cost savings over the lifespan of the structure.
• Environmental Benefits: By using a smaller quantity of materials and reducing the need for heavy machinery, our process is more environmentally friendly, potentially lowering costs associated with environmental compliance and mitigation.
