An initial online quote was quickly followed by a site visit by a very friendly and informative site surveyor. The work was scheduled a few weeks after payment of the deposit and the work was carried out very efficiently by the geopolymer injection team in just a few hours using laser measurement tools to detect when the wall had lifted following the stabilisation of the foundations. The site was left as clean as it was found . Within a week of the payment of the balance outstanding I received the Insurance backed guarantee, 10 year guarantee and CSA certificate

We had an alarming crack in our London Edwardian house internal brick wall which developed suddenly for no obvious reason (though we suspected a nearby over-zealous demolition job). The structural engineer who inspected it thought it had to be something local under the wall as there were no other signs of cracking in the house, and recommended underpinning...if only there was a way of just pushing the wall up again, he said. Well, then we found Uretek (now Geobar) and saw the seemingly miraculous video of the crack closing up on their website. We researched them and asked around - to cut a long storey short, from initial visit by the rep to the actual (day long only) job on site we got excellent service and even watched our crack closing up. The only prep we had to do was to take up the floorboards on one side of the wall they were treating. We are delighted and very relieved not to have had to go through the hassle of concrete underpinning (which, as it turns out, may not have worked as the 'soft' patch of clay was well below the level that the underpin would have gone).

Great product and superb workers that carried out the drilling and filling.

My client had a problem for which certain solutions had been put forward which proved impractical. I contacted Geobear and they came to site, put forward a scheme and a cost, both were acceptable, when they came to site they did exactly as they had said they would to mine and the clients satisfaction,

Had a difficult problem with foundations that had caused movement in walls of house,for various reasons underpinning was difficult,messy and expensive.Geobear surveyor responded quickly,offered his solution which we accepted and the work was completed very quickly with no mess or evidence of the origional problem showing.So far so good,only ten days since work was completed but looking fine so far,no reason to think this will change.Thank you Geobear

The Team of 3 arrived on site when they said that they would. They were very pleasant, raced through the coffee we provided and set about thier work. They were very informative and told me exactly what they were going to do and approximately how long it would take.

I was very pleased with the results of the foam injection procedure, Ged who did the initial inspection was very helpful and friendly and the guys who did the work were great, my house is very difficult to access but the guys found a solution, they kept me informed throughout the day as to what was taking place, they were all very friendly and cleaned up as they went, in fact when they left there was very little evidence that they had ever been here, my house was actually lifted by the procedure and many of the cracks closed up considerably, bedroom doors now shut properly and a window that had a gap in the frame is now gap free! Very pleased with the results, would highly recommend Geobear to others.

I had an extension to a house which had moved away from the house due to the concrete base moving. The process was able to stop the base from tipping any further. Unfortunately in my case, it was not able to move the extension back to its original position. THe work was very professional and was completed within about three hours.

We had a settlement issue with our living room floor. A structural engineer recommended having it stabilised using resin injection by a reputable company like Uretek. After an assessment by a the area manager (Norman Saint), we booked to have the repair done. 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. It is guaranteed and achieved for a very reasonable price. We fully recommend Uretek. Thanks very much. Andy Dawson

We've lived here since 1975 and our brick extension has gradually been moving away from the house. The crack had reached the stage where I could no longer ignore it. No local builder was interested. Uretek came up on the internet while I was searching further afield. Though sceptical, I contacted them and I've been very pleased. The extension was surveyed and I got a fixed-price quote without any sales pressure whatsoever. I knew a small inspection hole would have to be cut in the floorboards but I had a panic when I found I would have to arrange that myself because I was unsure of the requirements, but I need not have worried. All the people who did the work, including the sub-contractors who surveyed the drains and repaired the damaged one - which seems to have been the source of the problem - were first-class in every way. Although I understood they could only stabilise the ground, they actually lifted the extension, significantly closing the crack. I also expected the paving to need complete re-laying but the disturbance was kept to a minimum. Other reviewers have suggested that this method is expensive, but since no builder has ever given me a price, I have nothing for a comparison. At one point before I contacted Uretek, I remarked that I would give a certain some to anybody who could just wave a magic wand and they did the next best thing, with the price being almost exactly that sum, including the VAT. Only time will tell, but I'm a very satisfied customer.

Uretek submitted proposals which were acceptable to our client, refining and adapting their details over several years as we achieved agreement with the adopting authority, and carried out their work quickly in accordance with their proposed programme.

Quick and effective communication with office re estimates and following procedures. Effective and considered approach by the field operatives team.

After meeting Mark Jolly on site a programme of works was provided within 24hrs detailing exactly what and when works will start and finish. I attended on the start date, the engineers on site were very professional and all works were completed satisfactory. I will be using Uretek in the future if and when required.
