Low-pressure injection bonds cracks from the inside out, often in a single visit.
Not every Lake Oswego, OR 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 Lake Oswego, OR job.
An actively leaking crack rarely waits for a convenient afternoon — we prioritize dispatch for Lake Oswego, OR 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.
Every Lake Oswego, OR Foundation Crack Repair job starts with an inspection, not a generic package — here's what that typically includes.
Structural cracks that aren't actively leaking get epoxy injection, which bonds the concrete back together rather than just sealing the surface.
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.
Vertical cracks are usually settlement-related and often isolated; horizontal cracks can indicate hydrostatic pressure pushing on the wall and get flagged for further evaluation.
