### 1. What is Injection Grouting?
Injection grouting is a process in which a fluid grout material is injected into cracks, voids, or cavities in concrete, masonry, or soil to fill gaps, restore strength, and prevent water ingress. The grout hardens or reacts once in place, creating a durable, long-lasting repair.

### 2. What Types of Grout Are Used?
There are several types of grouts used in injection grouting, each suitable for different applications:
– **Cementitious grout**: Used for filling larger voids and cracks in concrete.
– **Epoxy grout**: Ideal for structural repairs due to its high strength and bonding properties.
– **Polyurethane grout**: Often used for waterproofing as it expands and seals leaks effectively.
– **Chemical grouts**: Used for soil stabilization and waterproofing in specific conditions.
