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.
Misclassifying a crack is the single most common mistake in this trade — treating a structural crack with the wrong material, or injecting a crack that actually needed a broader drainage fix behind it. We classify before we inject, every time.
Our technicians are trained to tell a cosmetic hairline crack apart from one that signals structural movement, before recommending a fix.
Most crack injection appointments can be scheduled within a day or two of your call.
A single crack repair is one of the most predictably priced jobs we do — no surprise scope creep.
We carry both structural epoxy and flexible polyurethane so the crew can match material to the crack on the same visit.
We scope every Foundation Crack Repair job in person before quoting it, since two properties with the same symptom rarely need the same fix.
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.
Selling a Three Rivers, OR home with a flagged foundation crack? We can inspect, repair, and provide documentation for the buyer's lender or inspector.
Photos texted ahead of time help us prep for the visit and sometimes speed up scheduling.
A technician measures crack width, checks for wall bowing, and determines whether it's structural, cosmetic, or actively leaking.
We explain why we're recommending one material over the other so the choice isn't a black box.
We check the injection ports after curing to confirm the material fully filled the crack before we consider the job done.

Active leaks get flexible polyurethane regardless of classification, since stopping water intrusion is the immediate priority.
Catching a crack early with injection usually costs less than waiting until it's actively leaking.
We make the call on-site after inspecting the crack, not before we've seen it.
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.
