About Us

History

THE COMPANY

The Judy Company was founded in 1922 by Philip S. Judy, a young and prominent geologist in the midwest. It was originally known as the Air Made Well Company. Mr. Judy specialized in foundation investigations, water well construction and ground water supplies for municipalities and industry. He was an early pioneer of foundation consolidation by pressure grouting.

In the late 1920's, he performed the foundation work for Bagnell Dam, which forms Lake of the Ozarks. In the 1930's, 1940's and 1950's, he developed equipment and procedures for foundation grouting, and performed the foundation work on many of the dams and river structures that were constructed in that period. Many of the procedures and much of the equipment that he developed are still specified and utilized today.

In 1963, the company was purchased by Hugh Carr and was Incorporated as the Judy Company, Inc. in 1966.The Judy Company turned primarily to the foundation consolidation of new dams in the 1960's and 1970's. Remedial work was also performed on older structures.

In the 1980's, as the need developed for remedial foundation work, The Judy Company responded by creating a specialty remedial division.

SERVICES

Within a related construction-engineering field, The Judy Company installs tie backs and rock anchors to enhance facility utilization. From grouting operations, The Judy Company developed a low cost slurry to be utilized in structural fills. A number of projects have been completed in the Kansas City area, as well as, other geographical areas.

For use in its grouting projects, The Judy Company has developed "Cell-A-Fill," a by-product of western coal, as well as application procedures and pumping environmental requirements of their Clients. These projects include simple trench and foundation back fills, 100 yards or less to 10,000 yards or more, and other applications such as consolidation protective measures for sanitary and hazardous waste projects.

The Judy Company completed a project filling voids in the breakwater in Milwaukee Harbor for the Corps of Engineers. The project included placing 2600 cubic yards of two component quick-set grout consisting of sodium silicate and cement.
