The best, easiest and least expensive way to mitigate foundation and concrete movement problems due to clay soil prior to construction.
AGSS-ICS soil stabilization has proven effective with long-lasting benefits in project after project, study after study.
Douglas foundations injects an advanced AGSS-ICS ionic stabilizer designed for swelling clay soils that changes the nature of the soil itself to permanently solve the problem of swelling and contracting soils by as much as 88% to protect the structures above.
