Our approach addresses both the structural damage and the water intrusion that caused it. We’ve been fixing foundation cracks and basement wall issues for local homeowners who need permanent solutions, not temporary patches.

Foundation Crack Repair Process

Here's Exactly How We Fix It

First, we inspect your foundation to determine if you’re dealing with settling cracks, structural damage, or water intrusion issues. We check the crack pattern, measure any movement, and identify what’s actually causing the problem.

Next, we prepare the crack properly and use professional crack injection to fill it completely from the inside out. This isn’t just surface sealing – we’re filling the entire crack with material that bonds with your concrete and moves with your foundation.

Finally, we address any waterproofing concerns to prevent future water intrusion. Your foundation repair includes both fixing the current damage and preventing the conditions that caused it. You get a permanent solution that handles both the structural and moisture issues.

Basement Wall Crack Repair

What's Included in Your Foundation Repair

Your foundation crack repair includes professional crack injection that fills the entire crack, not just the surface. We handle basement wall cracks, foundation leaks, and structural integrity issues that threaten your home’s stability.

We work with concrete foundations, cement block walls, and stone foundations common in older Calverton homes. Each repair addresses both the immediate crack and the underlying cause, whether that’s water pressure, soil movement, or structural settling.

You also get our assessment of other potential problem areas and recommendations for preventing future foundation issues. We explain what we found, what we fixed, and what you can expect going forward so you understand exactly what was done to your foundation.

How do I know if my foundation crack needs professional repair?

Any crack that allows water into your basement needs professional foundation crack repair. Horizontal cracks, cracks wider than a quarter-inch, or cracks that have grown over time indicate structural issues that require immediate attention. Even smaller cracks can become major problems during Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles and heavy rain seasons. If you can see daylight through the crack or feel air movement, that’s a clear sign the crack goes completely through your foundation wall. DIY crack fillers might stop water temporarily, but they don’t address the structural integrity issues that caused the crack in the first place.

What's the difference between crack injection and just sealing the surface?

Crack injection fills the entire crack from inside the wall, creating a permanent bond with your concrete that moves with your foundation. Surface sealing just covers the visible part of the crack and usually fails within a year or two. Professional crack injection uses polyurethane or epoxy materials that expand to fill every void in the crack, creating a waterproof seal that’s often stronger than the original concrete. Surface sealants can’t handle foundation movement and typically crack again during seasonal temperature changes. With proper crack injection, you’re fixing the crack once instead of dealing with the same problem repeatedly.

How long does foundation crack repair take and will it disrupt my home?

Most foundation crack repair jobs take 4-6 hours depending on the number and size of cracks. The crack injection process itself is relatively quick, but proper preparation and curing time are essential for permanent results. You can usually stay in your home during the repair work, though we’ll need access to your basement or the exterior foundation area. The injection materials cure within 24 hours, so your foundation is protected immediately. There’s minimal disruption compared to major foundation replacement projects, and you won’t have contractors tearing up your yard or requiring heavy equipment access in most cases.

Will fixing foundation cracks prevent future basement flooding?

Foundation crack repair eliminates water intrusion through those specific cracks, but basement flooding can have multiple causes. If water is entering through foundation cracks, sealing them with professional crack injection will stop that source of water intrusion. However, you might also have issues with drainage around your foundation, window wells, or other entry points that need attention. We evaluate your entire basement water situation during the foundation inspection and let you know if crack repair alone will solve your flooding issues or if additional waterproofing work is needed. Most foundation crack repairs significantly reduce or eliminate basement water problems.

How much does foundation crack repair cost compared to foundation replacement?

Foundation crack repair typically costs a fraction of foundation replacement – usually hundreds or low thousands compared to tens of thousands for full foundation work. The exact cost depends on the number of cracks, their size and location, and whether additional waterproofing is needed. Catching foundation problems early with crack repair can prevent the structural damage that leads to expensive foundation replacement projects. Most homeowners find that investing in professional crack repair now saves them from much larger foundation bills later. We provide upfront pricing so you know exactly what the repair will cost before we start work.

Do foundation crack repairs come with any kind of warranty?

Professional foundation crack repair should include a warranty on both materials and workmanship. The specific warranty terms depend on the type of crack injection material used and the conditions that caused the original crack. Repairs addressing settling or minor foundation movement typically have longer warranty periods than repairs on foundations with ongoing structural issues. A reputable foundation repair contractor will stand behind their crack injection work and explain exactly what’s covered under warranty. The warranty should cover the repair failing due to workmanship issues, though it typically doesn’t cover new cracks that develop in different areas of your foundation.
