PIPE PENETRATIONS
Pipe penetrations are the points where a pipe passes through a barrier like a wall, floor, or ceiling. This creates an opening that needs to be sealed to prevent leaks. However, that seal breaks down over time, causing pipe penetrations to be a common source of water intrusion.

The BG Foundation Repair Solution
We fill the void space around the pipe penetration with a dry fibrous rope-like material (oakum) that we soak in our water-stopping, expanding polymer resin. We will then apply a new hydraulic cement cap.
