Corecut undertakes a range of different types of Grouting, from the grouting of machine bases, infilling of voids behind retaining walls, bridge abutments and tunnel linings to the mass infilling of abandoned sewers and repairs to hydro electric power stations and fresh water reservoirs.
Many of the contracts undertaken have required strict control of the injection pressures and the use of a range of different grout application methods, from high capacity self-contained diesel pumps to compressed air or electric, to suit the specific requirements of a given project.
For the sealing of fine cracks in concrete and masonry, Corecut have the expertise to apply a range of crack injection techniques to bond structures and prevent water ingress and dampness.

- Diesel, electric, or air powered
- Ability to apply a range of materials to suit all applications
- Full range of case studies available
- Fully trained CSCS accredited operators
- Fully equipped mobile workforce covering the UK and Europe Stitching Bar
Anchor Installation
Often the only practical means of re-uniting damages structures is by the use of Stitching Bar / Anchors bonded with either cementations or resin grouts. As an approved installer of the Cintec range of Anchors, Corecut have carried out extensive structural repairs to historic buildings and monuments, bridges, tunnels, and harbours, gaining an enviable reputation for solving complex challenges of structural preservation.
Corecut also have extensive experience in the supply and installation of conventional mechanical and resin fixings for applications from the fixing of structural steel work to the installation of fall arrest anchors.
Pressure Pointing
Using a pre-blended mortar and a specially designed pumping system, Corecut’s engineers have repeatedly proven their expertise in the field of pressure pointing from bridges to tunnels, both in masonry and brickwork. Contracts completed have included the sea walls at Rothesay and Dunoon and the harbour wall at Dunbar. All of these projects were carried out in difficult tidal conditions, using an accelerator to ensure complete set of mortar. Joints were first cleaned out with water jets operating at pressures of up to 6000 psi, followed by the new mortar being injected to depths of 300 mm into the stonework fabric. The pointing was then struck off to give a finish that blended with the original mortar.
