COST ESTIMATOR
PileMedic® Cost Estimator: Estimate Your Pile Repair Materials
Enter the jacket diameter and the length of pile to repair. The estimator returns an approximate material cost for the PileMedic® jacket and epoxy, the spacers and banding, and the GFRP rebar, plus a total.
- Two inputs: jacket diameter and repair length
- Itemized material estimate
- Approximate only; your engineer sets the design
PileMedic® Cost Estimator
Enter the jacket diameter and the length of pile you need to repair. The estimator works out an approximate material cost for the PileMedic® jacket and epoxy, spacers and banding, and GFRP rebar.
Approximate material costs only; your costs may vary with your solution requirements. The jacket diameter is typically 4 to 6 in. (100 to 150 mm) larger than the pile. Assumes 6 spacers every 2 ft (600 mm) and 6 GFRP rebars. Bottom seal, grout and ShearWraps™ are not included.

Three Steps to an Estimate
-
Measure the pile
Find the diameter of the pile across the section to be repaired.
-
Add the annulus
Enter a jacket diameter 4 to 6 in. (100 to 150 mm) larger than the pile. The jacket wraps the spacers, not the bare pile.
-
Enter the repair length
Enter the height of pile to be jacketed, in feet, and calculate.
WHAT IT COVERS
What the Estimate Includes and Leaves Out
| Item | In the estimate | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| PileMedic® jacket and epoxy | Yes | Laminate wrapped twice around the jacket plus an 8 in. overlap, over the repair length |
| Spacers and banding | Yes | 6 spacers every 2 ft (600 mm) |
| GFRP rebar | Yes | 6 bars over the repair length |
| Bottom seal | No | See PileMedic® Bottom Seal |
| Grout | No | See the grout volume guide below |
| ShearWrap™ for steel piles | No | Made for each project |
| Labor, diving and freight | No | Material items only |

GROUT
Grout Volume per Foot of Repair, Round Piles
From the PileMedic® installation guide. Add the annular space volume to the volume of any lost pile section. One 50 lb bag of PileMedic® UW Grout yields about 0.45 cu ft.
| Pile diameter (in.) | Annular space | Plus 25% section loss | Plus 50% section loss | Plus 100% section loss |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | 0.31 | 0.09 | 0.17 | 0.35 |
| 10 | 0.38 | 0.14 | 0.27 | 0.55 |
| 12 | 0.44 | 0.20 | 0.39 | 0.79 |
| 14 | 0.51 | 0.27 | 0.53 | 1.07 |
| 16 | 0.57 | 0.35 | 0.70 | 1.40 |
| 18 | 0.64 | 0.44 | 0.88 | 1.77 |
| 20 | 0.70 | 0.55 | 1.09 | 2.18 |
| 22 | 0.77 | 0.66 | 1.32 | 2.64 |
| 24 | 0.83 | 0.79 | 1.57 | 3.14 |
Cost Estimator FAQs
How accurate is the estimate?
It is approximate. It prices the main PileMedic® materials from two inputs and fixed assumptions. Your costs will vary with the design, pile condition and site. For a firm number, request a consultation.
What jacket diameter should I enter?
The jacket diameter, not the pile diameter. It is typically 4 to 6 in. (100 to 150 mm) larger than the pile, because the spacers hold the jacket off the pile to leave room for grout.
Does the estimate include installation?
No. It covers the PileMedic® jacket and epoxy, spacers and banding, and GFRP rebar. Bottom seal, grout, ShearWrap™, labor, diving and freight are not included.
Does it work for square piles?
Enter an equivalent jacket diameter. The installation guide sizes the jacket for a square pile as if its diameter were the pile width × 1.41 + 1 in., which clears the corners.
