Newmarket Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Crack Repair
A wet basement can cause stress and expensive damage for Newmarket homeowners. One of the most common culprits is a leaking foundation crack. The good news is that most cracks can be repaired quickly, effectively, and at a reasonable cost. Since 2002, AquaGuard Injection & Waterproofing has been helping Newmarket residents keep their basements dry with professional crack repair and waterproofing solutions backed by a long-term warranty.
Foundation Crack Repair in Newmarket
Even small cracks can allow significant water entry, especially when water pressure builds around the foundation; this happens when snows melt and heavy rains follow. Over time, a minor leak can turn into a major issue if left untreated. Our team repairs foundation cracks from either the interior or the exterior, depending on your foundation type and site conditions.
- Poured concrete foundations – typically repaired from the inside using injected resins.
- Concrete block foundations – repaired from the outside by excavating and waterproofing the foundation wall.
Interior Crack Injection (Poured Concrete Foundations)
For poured concrete foundations, interior crack injection is the most reliable and cost-effective solution. We inject a polyurethane resin into the crack, where it expands to fill the voids and bonds tightly to the concrete. This creates a permanent seal that stops water intrusion by effectively eliminating the crack. Because the material travels through the wall to the exterior, there is no need for excavation or exterior repairs except when working behind a fireplace, electrical panel, bar etc,.
Exterior Crack Repairs (Block Foundations)
For homes in Newmarket with block foundations, cracks are repaired from the exterior. This repair involves excavating the affected wall down to the footing, filling the crack with hydraulic cement, applying an elastomeric rubber waterproof coating, and installing a protective membrane to direct water towards the weeping tile. This ensures long-term protection against water entry through the foundation crack.
Our Warranty
Every foundation crack repair completed in Newmarket comes with a 25-year transferable warranty. This guarantee provides homeowners with peace of mind, knowing their investment in a dry basement is protected for decades to come.
