Resin injection didn't work? We can fix it properly
If you've already tried resin and your home is still moving, you're not alone. We specialise in permanent structural solutions when quick fixes fail.

Polyurethane resin injection is often marketed as a fast, "non-invasive" and even cost-effective fix for subsidence. But for many homeowners, the cracks return, the floors keep sloping, and the underlying problem never really goes away. And their money is wasted. Resin's function is limited to filling gaps in the soil. It doesn't do what a foundation is supposed to: permanently bear the load of the building above without shifting due to soil conditions. Resin can perform unpredictably in reactive clays, and lacks the structural connection required to stabilise your home.
At Foundation Solutions, we've been called in to fix many homes where polyurethane resin has not provided the results customers need in terms of lift and/or an engineer's sign-off. Using engineered screw pile underpinning, we deliver a solution that is designed, certifiable and permanent.
Why does resin injection often fail?
Resin expands in voids or loose fill but doesn't create a connection to stable soil strata and establish a solid load-bearing foundation. Without this connection, there's no real structural support.
Unlike underpinning, resin isn't mechanically fixed to your foundation. That means it can't stabilise or lift your home with precision or permanence, as you are still in the same material that is prone to movement.
In clay-rich or black soils, resin can expand unevenly or break down over time. These soils need deep, engineered solutions, not shallow injections.
There's no torque data, no engineering design, and often no load testing with resin. That makes it hard to verify results, or trust that the problem's been solved.
How we repair homes after resin fails
If resin injection hasn't delivered lasting results, we can help you move forward with confidence:
- We start with a Home Check-up to assess symptoms and review any previous work.
- If foundation movement is still active, we recommend a forensic engineering report to identify the current condition and best approach. We arrange this for you and explain each step in normal terms so you can make the decision that is right for you and your home.
- Our screw pile underpinning system is then custom-designed and installed, targeting unstable zones and re-engaging load-bearing soil.
- The piles are torque-monitored, mechanically bracketed to the footings and, if required, used to lift your home with precision and care.
We've helped many homeowners recover from failed resin repairs, and restore trust in their foundation for good.
