Foundation Crack Repair

A large crack caused by lateral pressure runs vertically along a cement block wall inside a basement.

Think carefully about the risks of fixing a foundation crack by yourself or hiring an unreliable, unprofessional waterproofing contractor.

It usually starts with prepping the area incorrectly or using the wrong product. Off-the-shelf products typically don't work well. The results are dreadful. Moisture in the walls or floor renders most patch kits useless.

We want to emphasize the importance of getting a professional crack repair expert to stabilize the crack early on. Foundation cracks will shift a portion of your house or, in some cases, your entire home.

A vertical crack runs along a solid concrete wall. This is a telltale sign of lateral pressure against the outside walls.

Cracks in your home can be caused by outside lateral ground pressure against the foundation of your house. Neglecting it long enough could compromise the structural integrity of any home. Foundation cracks can also lead to unwanted bugs, dirt, moisture, and pollutants, resulting in mold contamination entering your home.

Potential telltale signs of foundation movement are sheetrock wall cracks, windows and doors not shutting properly, or even a leaning chimney can be a warning. You do not want to overlook these events since the consequences could be costly.
