Cementitious grout is a composite material consisting of water, cement and sand. It is typically used for filling voids under or behind structures or equipment.
It can be mixed on site or purchased as a proprietary pre-bagged material. Ram Services Limited has our own plant for most applications, both stationery and trailer mounted. Our personnel are competent in the grouting of voids.
Ram Services Limited Is skilled in all types of grouting to concrete which include:

- Use of small to moderate volumes of foamed concrete or grout to fill redundant drains, sewers and manholes or to fill voids beneath redundant bridges or subways.
- Remedial work to make good the effects of washout and other disturbance caused by ground water in masonry bridges, culverts, tunnels, shafts, basements, and manholes.
- Infilling of spaces under machine bases, annular gaps around pipe inserts, voids in steel fabrications.
- Injection of cement-based grouts into or around masonry structures to strengthen cavity or rubble wall construction, stabilise loose fill, prevent movement and improve structural integrity.
