I am a Chartered Building surveyor specialising in building defects and I have used Geobear several times over the years to help resolve sunken floors and ground instability. I have always found them to be very professional and I would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend them to others.

The fast process to re-level sinking floors
OUR EXPERTS DRILL HOLES ACCORDING TO DESIGN
WE INSERT STEEL TUBES INTO THE SLAB OR GROUND
GEOPOLYMER RESIN IS INJECTED INTO EACH HOLE
THE SITE IS MONITORED WITH LASERS TO VERIFY RESULTS
The holes are 1/2 inch and drilled according to the engineered design
1/2 inch tubes are either placed through the slab or into the ground to deliver geopolymer
The geopolymer expands when injected to fill voids and hardens with strength comarable to concrete.
Floor slabs can be lifted with ease and monitored with lasers to verify accuracy.
For almost 40 years we've been helping businesses and services to continue operating while repairing sinking floors and remediating structural movement.
Contact us today and we will visit your site to assess the issue and our engineering team will design a solution to repair the affected area.

Geobear solutions versus traditional method
This short video illustrates the key differences between a geopolymer solution and traditional piling for a warehouse or factory slab. Whereas the entire floor space needs to be cleared for a piling solution, Geobear can work around the operation on individual isles or bays.
Floor Slab Enfield
We were contracted to lift and relevel a floor slab in a warehouse before it could be leased.
Job completed in a week, saved months in lost lease time
St Helier Hospital access road
The hospital access road had sinking slabs and needed to be repaired while remaining open.
I would certainly recommend Geobear due to their expertise and professionalism
Asset Load Bearing Capacity of Soil Surrounding the City of Vista Sewer Pipe.
The City of Vista and Orion Construction were experiencing issues with sewer pipe deflection.
In-house engineering was a huge plus in developing a performance based solution
We operate anywhere in Orange County, Los Angeles or San Diego.
We have numerous depots with mobile teams ready to deliver projects where necessary
Difficult to access site? We just need to park our truck outside and use 300 feet hoses to deliver the resin. We can work on even the hardest to access sites.
The work itself took less than a day to complete and apart from clearing the room there was hardly any disruption at all. The team were polite and professional. We feel confident the work has been done to a high standard and solved the problem.We fully recommend Geobear.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much experience do you have?
We've treated over 200,000 structures worldwide. Each project is different and the time depends on the amount of lift needed, the area which needs treatment and the ground conditions. Most projects are fully completed within 1-2 days or weeks depending on site and scale.
Will there be disruption to operations?
Very little, if any. Our geopolymer resin is injected through tiny holes drilled in the ground. It's a bit like "keyhole surgery" so there is minimal excavation, disruption and mess. Nearly all our work is done outside the property and you don't need to move out.
How many projects have you completed?
Geobear (formerly Uretek) have completed over 200,000 projects worldwide over the last 40 years. We've completed over 11,000 residential projects across the USA/UK as well as major engineering projects for Orion Construction, City of Vista and Hallsell Builders
Do I get a warranty?
Our work comes with a 10 year insurance-backed warranty.
Do I need to relocate?
No. Most projects won't require you to stop operating.
Who will carry out and be resonsible for the work?
The work at your property will be designed by an engineer and carried out by our highly experienced technicians.
Is it safe and environmentally conscious?
Yes. Our geopolymer is inert. It is environmentally neutral and accredited to be injected near drinking water such as dams, rivers and levies.
