For years we have been using concrete crack injection as a simple, cost effective technique for filling cracks in foundation walls. This method works only for poured concrete walls and on cracks that are not directly related to underlying foundational damage.

Now along with traditional injection, we are offering high pressure concrete crack injection. What’s the difference? Well, it’s all about how the solution is applied. The cracks are still prepared the same way, but instead of manually filling them with an epoxy solution, we hook a machine up that uses high pressure to force the polyurethane deep into the cracks. The result? A better, longer lasting fill.

High Pressure Injections Come with a Lifetime Warranty

Should you take advantage of this method of injection, you will never have to worry about the same cracks again. Why? Because along with the service we offer a fully transferrable lifetime warranty. So if the cracks return, so do we!

Do you use caulk or store-bought silicone to fill the cracks?

Here are a few questions we often get asked about concrete crack injection along with our honest answers.

Absolutely not. You need a strong seal, and those sort of over the counter goods won’t do the trick. For a long lasting fill, professionals will use a commercial strength epoxy.

When can you remove the ports?

Certainly not right away. Generally professionals advise waiting 24 to 48 hours to remove ports after concrete crack injection has been performed. This should give sufficient time for the epoxy to thoroughly dry.

Is it expensive?

Honestly, in comparison to other means of basement waterproofing, concrete crack injection is about as cheap as it gets!

Will it work on my block walls?

Unfortunately, concrete crack injection is only for poured concrete walls. If your walls are composed of cinder blocks, you will have to look into another means of basement waterproofing.

A common waterproofing method that may work for your home can be a Polyurethane basement crack injection for poured walls. At Stay Dry Waterproofing, their experts can provide this option to prevent moisture from damages your home.

Poured concrete walls can cause problems, quite often being:

• Developed cracks, which leak slowly
• Water penetration through rod holes
• Water penetration through pipe entries

If you are only getting water at these points in your home, you may not need an entire drain-tile system. Stay Dry Waterproofing can give you a solution with a basement crack injection.

 This is a very permanent and affordable solution for many homeowners and it comes with a lifetime warranty.  The product Stay Dry uses is a dual component, commercial grade hybrid urethane epoxy solution. This material has a 121 positive expansion ratio; therefore it continues to expand throughout the entire crack from interior to exterior, stopping the water at its origin.

Over time, it’s not uncommon for basement walls to develop small cracks. They may seem harmless enough, but they do pose one serious threat—water intrusion. In poured concrete walls, these cracks can often be treated by a fairly simple method known as concrete crack injection.

But what causes these cracks? And are they avoidable?

Well, typically these cracks are caused by concrete shrinkage. As concrete cures, the amount of water within reduces. As a result, the concrete stresses and cracks begin forming to relieve the stress. It’s a pretty normal process and pretty much impossible to avoid. Now these sorts of cracks are no cause for alarm as far as foundational issues are concerned, but as stated above, they can allow water to seep into your basement.

So if you notice cracks in your basement walls, have a professional from Stay Dry Waterproofing take a look at them. If they are fixable through concrete crack injection then they can perform the service for you. If the cracks are of a more serious nature, they can let you know your options to fix that as well.
