As buildings and infrastructure age, they often require repairs and restoration. While storm drains and culvert designs can withstand the pressures of flooding and torrential rains, they’re not invincible. Consistent pressures from time, temperature fluctuations and heavy traffic lead to flaws like cracks and reduced water impermeability.
Infiltration (unintentional water inflow into infrastructure) and exfiltration (unregulated water egress) can have significant effects.

Challenges like drainage infiltration into cracked storm drains and culverts can significantly impact infiltration and inflow (I&I), increasing wastewater volumes by about 40% to 50%. This infiltration and wastewater increase leads to:
Exfiltration causes soil erosion, leading to collapsed drains, culverts and infrastructure.
Water inflow and infiltration swell wastewater volumes beyond what treatment plants can manage.
Excess water may exceed stormwater systems’ designated capacities, leading to collapse.
During storms, inflow volumes may push untreated wastewater into the environment.
Whether waterproofing a storm drain or repairing damage to the main culvert structure, traditional techniques would require excavation or replacing the damaged structure. HMI’s trenchless repair options empower on-site repairs and eliminate excavation. Restore infrastructure, extend system lifespans and prevent I&I with high-performance Soil Link™ grouts and polyurethane foams.
For rapid waterproofing, you could opt for Soil Link™ single-component hydro-activated polyurethane, while Soil Link™ acrylate grout is ideal for improving soil stability. HMI has the perfect product for various industries and companies, including:
