Polyurethane Basement Crack Injection
Another common waterproofing method we provide is Polyurethane Basement Crack Injection for poured walls. Quite often on poured concrete walls cracks can develop which leak slowly, also rod holes, and pipe entries provide access for water penetration. If this is the case in your home and your only getting water at these points you may not need an entire drain tile system. Your problem may be solved with a simple Polyurethane Concrete Injection. This is a very permanent and affordable solution for many homeowners and it comes with a LIFETIME WARRANTY. The product StayDry® uses is a dual component commercial grade hybrid urethane epoxy solution. This material has a 12–1 positive expansion ratio; therefore it continues to expand throughout the entire crack from interior to exterior, stopping the water at its origin.
For a Polyurethane Basement Crack Injection plastic ports are attached over the poured concrete wall crack every 10 – 12 inches. Then the remaining area of the crack is covered with temporary surface bond to contain the soon injected Polyurethane. Once that is completed our technician begins injecting the bottom port and continues until the polyurethane material appears at the port above, at which point he will plug that port and move on to the next port. He continues this process from the base of the crack to the top until all ports have been injected and is sure the crack has been completely filled. The surface bond and ports are then left on the wall for 24 – 48 hours until the product has had time to completely solidify. After 24 – 48 hours the homeowner may remove the surface bond and ports.
