Ground Stabilisation Services

At Storm Construction Group, we offer specialised Ground Stabilisation services to protect your property from soil movement, erosion, and instability. Ground movement can have serious consequences for a building’s foundation and overall structural integrity, leading to issues such as subsidence, cracking, and even structural collapse. Our team provides tailored ground stabilisation solutions to strengthen the soil, prevent future movement, and ensure the long-term safety and stability of your property.

What is Ground Stabilisation?

Ground stabilisation is the process of improving the strength and stability of soil to prevent movement and erosion that could otherwise undermine a building’s foundation. It involves a range of techniques designed to reinforce the soil, making it more resilient to environmental factors such as moisture changes, heavy loads, and slope movement.

Common Ground Issues We Address

Unstable ground can result in significant damage to buildings and infrastructure. Some of the most common issues we address with our ground stabilisation services include:

• Soil Erosion: Natural erosion caused by water, wind, or poor drainage can destabilise the ground beneath a property, leading to foundation damage.
• Subsidence: The sinking or settling of the ground, often caused by changes in moisture content or poor soil conditions, can lead to cracks in walls, floors, and foundations.
• Slope Instability: Properties located on or near slopes are at risk of soil movement, which can threaten the stability of both the building and surrounding land.
• Soft or Loose Soils: Buildings constructed on soft or loose soil can experience uneven settlement, which can damage the foundation and structure.

Our Ground Stabilisation Solutions

At Storm Construction Group, we provide a comprehensive range of ground stabilisation techniques to suit the unique needs of each site. Our solutions include:

• Underpinning: We reinforce existing foundations by extending them deeper into more stable soil layers, helping to stabilise buildings affected by subsidence or settlement.
• Soil Injection: By injecting stabilising materials such as cementitious grout or resins into the ground, we can strengthen weak or loose soils, improving their load-bearing capacity.
• Retaining Walls: For properties located near slopes or embankments, we design and construct retaining walls that provide essential support to prevent soil movement and landslides.
• Drainage Solutions: Poor drainage can lead to soil erosion and instability. We install drainage systems that manage water flow and protect the ground from the damaging effects of water accumulation.
• Geotextiles and Reinforcement Mesh: We use geotextiles and other reinforcement materials to stabilise soil on slopes, embankments, and other areas at risk of erosion or movement.

Long-Lasting Ground Stabilisation Solutions

Our ground stabilisation services are designed to provide long-term protection against soil movement and erosion, ensuring the stability of your property’s foundation. We use advanced techniques and high-quality materials to deliver durable, reliable results that safeguard your building against future ground-related issues.
