Modern infrastructure demands innovative solutions for laying and maintaining subterranean utilities. Traditional trenching methods, while effective, often lead to significant surface disruption, costly reinstatement, and extended project timelines. This has driven the widespread adoption of trenchless technologies, particularly various forms of directional drilling, which offer a more efficient, less intrusive, and environmentally conscious approach.

One of the most prominent techniques is horizontal directional drilling (HDD). This method involves boring a pilot hole along a pre-determined path from a launch point to a reception point, followed by reaming the hole to the required diameter, and finally pulling through the product pipe … Read More...

Self-leveling concrete is a concrete mixture formulated to flow and spread evenly across a pre-existing concrete surface in preparation for installing flooring and filling voids. To avoid specific problems, you should avoid using self-leveling concrete in certain situations. 

When Is Self-Leveling Concrete a Problem?

When the Slab is Improperly Prepared

Using self-leveling concrete on an improperly prepared slab can lead to several significant foundation problems. For example, if the underlying surface is not clean, debris-free, or adequately primed, the self-leveling compound may not adhere correctly, causing the new layer to peel away from the substrate (the surface on which … Read More...
