More Than 50 Years of Specialty Waterproofing and Infrastructure Repair
For more than 50 years, JWI has supported commercial, municipal, industrial, educational, institutional, and infrastructure properties across Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts. Our field work spans below-grade water control, injection grouting, soil stabilization, void filling, low-density cellular concrete, concrete restoration, coatings, linings, and water and wastewater structure rehabilitation.
We work where water, soil, concrete, and infrastructure problems overlap. Our team supports owners, engineers, general contractors, municipalities, facility managers, wastewater teams, and industrial sites facing active infiltration, soil loss, voids, slab movement, deteriorated concrete, or failing coatings and linings.
We help evaluate the field condition and discuss a practical repair path. We coordinate with engineer-directed scopes where applicable. Our role is specialty field execution, not engineering design or regulatory determination.
Engineering design, structural determinations, geotechnical engineering opinions, and regulatory interpretations should be provided by the appropriate licensed professionals when required.

Specialty methods for
water, soil & concrete
JWI provides field services for structures affected by groundwater infiltration, soil erosion, settlement, voids, cracking, and below-grade leakage. The right method depends on the conditions we find on site.
Soil Stabilization
We stabilize compromised soils affected by erosion, groundwater movement, poor compaction, washout, or settlement. This protects foundations, slabs, utility structures, manholes, vaults, and other below-grade assets that depend on consistent subgrade support.
View serviceVoid Filling
Voids below slabs, behind walls, around structures, or near utilities create settlement, cracking, water paths, and structural risk. We fill them using materials and methods matched to the substrate, access, and conditions of each site.
View serviceLow-Density Cellular Concrete
LDCC is a lightweight, flowable material used for void filling, soil stabilization, and foundation support where reduced weight, efficient placement, and controlled fill are important. It reaches confined spaces conventional fill cannot.
View serviceSlab Stabilization
Sunken or uneven slabs are usually a symptom of soil movement, erosion, washout, or poor compaction. We treat leveling as a stabilization service that addresses the soil condition underneath, not just the surface result.
View serviceChemical Grout Injection
Chemical grout injection seals active water infiltration, fills pathways, controls groundwater movement, and supports below-grade structures. Polyurethane and epoxy injection systems are selected based on the leak, substrate, and load conditions on site.
View serviceElevator Pit Waterproofing
Standing water and active leakage through pit walls, slab joints, and penetrations threaten elevator shutdown in occupied commercial buildings. We address below-grade pit waterproofing and injection scoped to active buildings.
View serviceManhole & Vault Grouting
Municipal and utility structures receive targeted grouting to seal infiltration, stabilize surrounds, and extend service life without full replacement where conditions allow.
View serviceWastewater Structure Inspection
Municipal and commercial wastewater structures need field review before grouting, coatings, linings, or rehabilitation scope is set. We assess manholes, vaults, pump stations, and wet wells to route the right repair method.
View serviceIndustrial Waterproofing
We address water intrusion through foundations, elevator pits, tunnels, tanks, vaults, manholes, conduits, bridges, dams, and below-grade concrete structures, controlling water at the point it enters the structure.
View serviceWater & Wastewater Rehab
Wet wells, pump stations, tanks, and process structures deteriorate from I&I, corrosion, and coating failure in harsh service. We rehabilitate water and wastewater assets with infiltration control, concrete repair, and protective linings.
View serviceConcrete Restoration
Deteriorated concrete, failed coatings, and lining systems are restored and protected for demanding wastewater, industrial, and infrastructure service environments.
View serviceTrenchless Pipe Rehabilitation
CIPP lining and trenchless sewer repair rehabilitate deteriorated mains and laterals with limited excavation, coordinated with CCTV findings and commercial or municipal access constraints.
View serviceSeawall Repair
Grout injection, void filling, soil stabilization, and marine concrete repair address failing bulkheads, erosion behind panels, and landward settlement at commercial waterfront properties.

The condition
selects the method
The right repair is determined by the condition, not by a default product. JWI evaluates the structure, water behavior, access, substrate, soil loss, void geometry, and operational constraints before selecting an injection, grout, coating, lining, fill, or restoration approach.
The same leak in two different structures can call for two different systems. We treat method selection as part of the work, not an afterthought.

From Field Condition to Repair Path
Most below-grade repair decisions start with what is happening in the field. Active water, soil loss, voids, movement, exposure, access, and substrate condition all change the repair path. We review those factors before discussing whether injection, grout, fill, LDCC, coatings, linings, sealing, or concrete restoration may be appropriate.

Built for Serious Commercial and Infrastructure Conditions
Below-Grade Water Control
Water intrusion through cracks, joints, penetrations, elevator pits, vaults, tunnels, and wastewater structures requires more than surface patching. We evaluate water behavior, access, substrate condition, and repair sequencing before discussing injection, sealing, waterproofing, coating, or lining methods.
Injection, Grouting, and Stabilization
JWI works with chemical grout injection, polyurethane grout systems, void filling, soil stabilization support, and related field methods where conditions call for targeted water, soil, or support work.
Concrete Restoration, Coatings, and Linings
Deteriorated concrete, failed coatings, chemical exposure, and harsh service environments require proper surface preparation, compatible materials, and a repair path suited to the structure's use.
Water and Wastewater Infrastructure
We support manholes, wet wells, pump stations, vaults, tanks, and wastewater structures affected by infiltration, deterioration, joint leakage, coatings failure, and lining needs.
Commercial Facility Coordination
Commercial and institutional sites often involve occupied spaces, access limits, safety requirements, documentation needs, shutdown windows, and coordination with owners, engineers, GCs, and facility teams.
Northeast Regional Coverage
JWI serves commercial properties across CT, NY, NJ, PA, and MA, with a focus on commercial, municipal, industrial, institutional, utility, and infrastructure environments.
How We Approach the Work
Review the Condition
We start with the visible issue, the structure involved, available photos or video, water behavior, settlement, deterioration, access, and any drawings or reports.
Identify the Constraint
The repair path depends on active water, soil loss, void size, substrate condition, movement, chemical exposure, access, cure time, and owner or engineer requirements.
Select the Field Method
The method may involve injection, grout, fill, LDCC, joint sealing, surface preparation, coatings, linings, cementitious repair, or related restoration work where appropriate.
Coordinate the Site
We plan around occupied facilities, access limitations, utility structures, shutdown windows, documentation needs, and coordination with project teams.
Execute and Document
We perform the field work according to the agreed scope and provide product data, SDS information, field notes, or closeout support where applicable.

JWI Understands the Failure Before We Choose the Fix
Water leaks, voids, cracked concrete, failed coatings, and deteriorated wastewater structures do not all fail for the same reason. One structure may need injection. Another may need grouting, surface preparation, cementitious repair, LDCC, coatings, linings, or a phased repair approach.
We look at the condition first: where the water is coming from, what the concrete can support, how the structure is used, what access allows, and what the repair has to stand up to after the work is done.
That is how JWI works. We fix the condition, not just the visible symptom.
