A foundation crack can leak quite a bit if there is alot of water pressure against your foundation
Foundation Crack Repair in Aurora
Even hairline cracks can let in a surprising amount of water, particularly when considerable hydrostatic pressure builds up in the clay soil around the foundation; when the winter snows melt and heavy rains follow. Left untreated, foundation cracks can lead to major water leaks in your basement which often result in costly damage. Our specialists repair cracks from either the interior or the exterior, depending on your foundation type and site conditions.
- Poured concrete foundations – usually repaired from the inside using resin injection (polyurethane and epoxy). Exterior crack waterproofing is also an option.
- Block foundations – repaired on the outside by excavating and waterproofing the foundation wall at the crack location.
Interior Crack Repairs (Poured Concrete)
For poured concrete foundations, interior crack injection is the most common solution used. We inject a polyurethane resin into the crack, which expands and seals every cavity. The material bonds tightly to the concrete, creating a permanent barrier against water. Because it travels all the way through the wall to the exterior, there’s no need for excavation or disruption to your landscaping.
Injected polyurethane resin foams up and travels within the foundation crack to seal all cavities.
Exterior Crack Repairs (Block Foundations)
Homes in Aurora with block foundations often benefit most from exterior repairs. This process involves carefully excavating the foundation wall down to the footing, filling the crack(s) with hydraulic cement, applying an elastomeric waterproof coating, and covering it with a protective membrane (foundation wrap). This ensures water cannot penetrate your foundation and drains away properly via your weeping tile.
