How we repair concrete

The Concrete Foundation Repairs We Are Qualified For

Get a Free Inspection

The right repair depends on what made the crack. A crack left from the concrete curing only needs sealing, while a crack from a wall or footing that moved needs the movement fixed first, or the seal will crack open again.

Sealing Cracks in Poured Concrete Walls

When it fits: A crack that lets water into the basement, in a wall that is not leaning or settling.
What we do: We inject a seal from inside the basement. It fills the crack all the way through the wall, not just across the surface, so the water has no path around it.
What it fixes: Water coming through the crack. The wall itself does not need any other repair.

Straightening and Bracing a Bowed Poured Wall

When it fits: A poured wall that leans in along a sideways crack. A seal alone will not hold here, because the soil outside keeps pushing.
What we do: We fasten steel restraints to the basement floor and the framing above, then push the wall back out a little at a time.
What it fixes: A wall that is moving inward. The restraints hold it where it ends up.

Piering Under a Settled Concrete Footing

When it fits: A crack that is wider near the ceiling than down by the floor, or a floor that slopes toward one corner. Both mean part of the footing under the wall has dropped.
What we do: We drive steel piers down through the soil beside the footing until they reach bedrock. Then we attach the top of each pier to the footing.
What it fixes: A settling corner. That part of the house rests on the piers instead of the soil that let it sink.

Installing Interior Drain Tile Under the Basement Floor

When it fits: When water seeps into your basement where the wall meets the floor. Interior drain tile catches that water under the floor before it can spread across your basement.
What we do: We cut a narrow strip of concrete out of the floor along the wall, dig a trench and lay a drain pipe in gravel that runs to your sump pit. Once the drain is in, we pour new concrete over the trench and smooth it level with the rest of the floor.
What it fixes: Water at the base of the wall. It drops into the drain and runs to the sump pump instead of across your floor.

In the message box, tell us which repair you think you need and which wall it is on. It is fine if you are not sure, since that is what the inspection is for.

If the wall has been patched or repaired before, mention that too, because an old patch can hide how the crack has changed.

Worth knowing

What We Want Every Homeowner to Know About Concrete Foundation Repair

A repair only lasts when it matches what made the crack. These are the points that decide which one holds on your wall.

Piers Go Down to Bedrock Because the Clay Above It Keeps Moving

The clay under homes here swells when it is wet and shrinks when it dries out. A footing resting on that clay rises and drops with it, which is how a corner settles.

Bedrock does not move with the weather. Once the footing rests on piers that reach it, the clay can keep swelling and shrinking without taking that corner of the house along.
