We classify every crack before injecting it — structural cracks get epoxy, active leaks get flexible polyurethane, and both get a written scope before we start.
Not every Leeds, AL foundation crack needs the same material or approach. A vertical settlement crack behaves differently than a stair-step block crack, and we adjust injection technique and material to match what's actually happening in the wall.
Misclassifying a crack is the most common mistake in this trade, and it's the first thing we check on every Leeds, AL job.
An actively leaking crack rarely waits for a convenient afternoon — we prioritize dispatch for Leeds, AL cracks that are currently letting water in.
Pricing is based on crack length and injection material, quoted in writing before we drill any injection ports.
Polyurethane expands to fill voids behind an actively weeping wall; epoxy is reserved for cracks that need structural bonding.
We scope every Foundation Crack Repair job in person before quoting it, since two properties with the same symptom rarely need the same fix.
Epoxy-injected cracks regain much of their original structural strength, which matters for load-bearing foundation walls.
Cracks that are still weeping get flexible polyurethane, which expands into voids and stays flexible enough to handle minor seasonal movement.
We also check for bowing alongside stair-step cracks, since that combination can point to a bigger structural issue.
We document crack width and location with photos before and after injection so you have a record of the repair.
Selling a Leeds, AL home with a flagged foundation crack? We can inspect, repair, and provide documentation for the buyer's lender or inspector.
Tell us the crack's location, whether it's actively leaking, and roughly how wide it is so we can bring the right materials.
We also check the exterior grading near the crack, since poor drainage is often what caused it in the first place.
We explain why we're recommending one material over the other so the choice isn't a black box.
Most single-crack injections are completed in a few hours, start to finish, in one visit.
"We were selling the house and the inspector flagged a foundation crack. They came out within two days, injected epoxy, and gave us documentation for the buyer's lender."
— Leeds Seller
"They explained why our crack was structural and not just cosmetic, which the previous contractor never bothered to check."
— Leeds Homeowner
"Had two cracks — one needed epoxy, one needed polyurethane. They matched material to each one instead of using the same thing on both."
— Leeds Customer
"Stair-step crack in our block wall had us worried about the whole foundation. Turned out to be isolated and fixable with injection."
— Leeds Homeowner
Active leaks get flexible polyurethane regardless of classification, since stopping water intrusion is the immediate priority.
We repair cracks of nearly any size — hairline cracks are often the easiest and cheapest to seal before they widen further.
Epoxy is better for structural bonding on a non-leaking crack; polyurethane is better for a crack that's actively weeping since it cures even with water present.
Most single-crack injections are completed in a few hours during one visit.
If new movement occurs elsewhere in the wall, that's a separate issue we'd assess independently.
Turnaround is usually fast enough to fit within a typical closing timeline.
