Soil Stabilization

Unstable soil is one of the leading causes of structural issues in Florida homes and properties. Whether you’re seeing cracks in your foundation, sinking slabs, or voids opening behind seawalls, Helicon’s soil stabilization solutions restore ground strength and protect your investment-without major excavation.

Warning Signs Your Soil May Be Failing

Soil instability often develops gradually-but once it starts, damage can accelerate quickly. Look for these warning signs:

Underpin Foundations

Cracked or Shifting Foundation

Fractures in walls or uneven floors often point to soil movement beneath your home’s foundation.

uneven concrete slab

Sunken or Uneven Concrete Slabs

Driveways, patios, or pool decks that dip, tilt, or crack can signal erosion or voids below the surface.

voids or depressions in the yard

Voids or Depressions in the Yard

Unexpected low spots or soft ground may indicate soil washout or decomposing organic material underground.

cracked or leaning wall

Leaning Seawalls or Retaining Walls

Soil movement behind vertical structures can push walls outward, leading to tilting or collapse.

detached patio or pool deck

Detached Patios or Pool Decks

Separation from the home’s structure is often due to shifting or settling soil beneath the slab.

Underpin Foundations

Persistent Water Pooling

Standing water after rain may be a result of poor soil compaction and drainage-common precursors to erosion.

Great service. Efficient timeline. Very fair pricing for the big job in my situation (pool on the side of a massive cliff/hill stabilization and lift).
Bryce and his team were on time explained the process and they were very professional.
Completed the repairs as quoted and clean up the work site.
I am very pleased with their work and professionalism.
The assessment and process easy. Price was reasonable compared to others and the workmanship was excellent. They listen to what I had to say based on my experience doing this 15 years ago. I like that they had a five year warranty and hoping everything goes well with the lifting of the cement next to my pool area.
Helicon is definitely the company to call when you have foundation issues. The process was explained in detail and best of all in Layman’s terms. We were shown the progression and what the lift was doing to correct our issues.
Our final walk through was explained from room to room, and they notified us when they were finished and were leaving. I was especially impressed with them cleaning so well after completing everything. Thank you so much Helicon for doing such an amazing job!!!! Douglas, Tony, John, Joshua, and Raul.
THANK YOU
I had a screen porch blow off during Hurricane Milton. One of the rebuilding efforts was to ensure the foundation under the wall that had supported the screen porch's attachment was secure. Helicon came and pumped in an expanding grout under the wall in question. Great job was done with precision measurements, and the area was left clean and neat. Well Done!
Successful job, polite and professional workers, nice job, appreciate cleaning up and fast and efficient project.
I had an excellent experience with Helicon Foundation Repair. From start to finish, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and transparent about every step of the process. David took the time to explain my options clearly and delivered exactly what they promised — on time and within budget. The crew Rey, Brent and Ajay worked efficiently and kept the area clean throughout the project. It’s clear they take pride in their workmanship and customer service. I highly recommend Helicon Foundation Repair to anyone in need of reliable and high-quality foundation services.
They stabilized the driveway which was about to collapse. Professional and courteous service.
Jan and his team did an excellent job at our home yesterday. Our project had challenges and Jan kept up apprised and worked with us to make a decision for each section as needed. That communication led to an end result was as we expected.
My driveway had a sudden hole appear that was about 3' deep. No water appeared to be the cause, it just dropped. Helicon came out stabilized the driveway and leveled it. They have the skilled workers and the right equipment to make this look easy. I am confident that I will not have any more issues with my driveway!

How Helicon Stabilizes Your Soil

Our advanced polyurethane injection methods are designed to permanently stabilize Florida’s most problematic soils. Each approach is fast, clean, and tailored to your specific needs.

permeation grout

Permeation Grouting

We inject low-viscosity polyurethane deep into loose soil. As it expands, it binds soil particles into a dense, unified layer-strengthening the ground while preventing future washout.

compaction grouting

Compaction Grouting

In areas with large voids or weak zones, we inject high-expansion foam to displace soft soils and compact the surrounding material. This reinforces support under foundations, slabs, or seawalls.

Where Soil Stabilization Makes a Difference:

Home Foundations

Prevent structural damage and settlement.

Driveways, Patios & Pool Decks

Restore level surfaces and eliminate tripping hazards.

Seawalls & Retaining Walls

Stabilize high-pressure zones to prevent shifting or collapse.

Commercial Projects

Support buildings, roads, or infrastructure with unstable subgrade.
