Sticking Doors & Windows

Sticking doors and windows are often caused by uneven foundation movement. Weak soil, water infiltration and differential settlement can distort wall openings and cause frames to shift out of alignment.

Our approach

How Hengxiang Hongye Performs Remediation

Through our non-destructive and controllable patented technology, the weak soil layer of the holding layer is consolidated as a whole, and the consolidated and reinforced foundation soil forms a composite foundation, whose bearing capacity value can reach nearly three times of the original bearing capacity, and well support the upper load.

  1. 01
    Drilling

    Bore holes in the affected area with a diameter of 6–10 mm.

  2. 02
    Injection

    Inject a specialized inorganic material.

  3. 03
    Solidification

    The material rapidly solidifies with soil, filling voids and stabilizing the ground.

  4. 04
    Re-balancing

    Lift and reinforce the foundation until re-leveling is achieved.
