Types of Foundation Cracks
When you notice a crack in your foundation, it’s important to note the type to understand the best course of action and the level of intervention required:
- Horizontal cracks – a horizontal crack in your foundation is serious, indicating unbalanced soil and hydrostatic water pressuring your foundation wall. Intervention is required as soon as possible.
- Stair step cracks in a zig-zag pattern indicate foundation settlement and moisture issues. Anything thicker than a quarter is a serious issue.
- Hairline cracks – a minor foundation crack issue that can be repaired easily.
- Vertical and horizontal cracks – a vertical or horizontal crack is less serious and can be resolved with crack injections.
- Foundation slab cracks – a slab crack larger than a hairline requires immediate intervention and repair.
- Wet cracks – if your foundation cracks are leaking, it requires either an exterior crack repair with membranes or a high pressure injection with epoxy or flexible urethane. Call us today to schedule a home visit so we can assess the severity and underlying cause of the foundation crack. This comprehensive approach ensures that we accurately diagnose the issue and provide the most suitable and reliable repair solution.
Why Repair Your Foundation Cracks?
Don’t hesitate when you find a crack in your foundation. Failing to address the issue quickly could cause the following issues:
- Structural integrity – a foundation crack can widen, shift, and unsettle the foundation, causing damage to the structural integrity of your home.
- Preventing water infiltration – a crack can be an entry point for water, moisture, and pests.
- Property value and resale – untreated cracks will deteriorate the structural integrity of your home, decreasing property value and making resale difficult.
By addressing foundation cracks promptly, our goal is to help you avoid further damage and minimize the risk of additional expenses down the line. Trust our expertise and proactive approach to safeguard the stability and value of your property.
How Do We Perform Foundation Crack Repairs?
When you call us for foundation crack repairs, we will visit your home to inspect the crack and determine the best course of action for restoration. If the crack is small, we will recommend either exterior membranes or a high pressure crack injection with epoxy or flexible urethane.
Horizontal and Vertical Cracks
When it comes to minor vertical and horizontal cracks, we employ a meticulous and effective process that ensures stunning results. Our experienced team follows the following proven methods to provide you with the best outcome:
- Repairing the crack with an Epoxy Injection– our Epoxy can repair dry cracks up to 8 inches deep. The epoxy-injection system inserts into the crack to fill it and protect your home from water leaks.
- Flexible urethane is a proven product for all small hairline cracks via high pressure injection.
- Blocking injection ports – we seal the injection port, leaving no trace to ensure your repairs appear seamless once we’re done.
Once we’re done, we will tidy up and leave your home just as we found it – minus the foundation crack!
Stair-Step Foundation Cracks
In the case of stair-step foundation cracks, the repair process follows a similar approach. Our team will employ one of the following repair methods to address the issue:
- Epoxy injections – epoxy resin is injected into the cracks to bond and seal them.
- Urethane foam injection – smaller cracks that move will be filled with foam to fill the crack and create a waterproof seal.
- Carbon fiber reinforcement – a carbon fiber strap or fabric will reinforce the surrounding area to distribute stress and stabilize the foundation.
We will begin with an inspection, clear the debris and dirt, and stabilize the foundation by addressing structural issues.
Hairline Cracks
In instances where hairline cracks are present, which are typically less severe, we will utilize flexible urethane injection. . Our skilled technicians will carefully inject the flexible urethane to ensure a seamless repair.
Following the application, we will diligently smooth the crack and closely monitor it for any signs of movement or water leakage. This thorough monitoring allows us to assess whether reapplication of the epoxy filler is necessary to guarantee the crack’s complete restoration.
