Most homes and businesses have that very common problem of cracks in concrete. Whether it happens in a driveway, sidewalk, or the walk leading to the front door it is an eye sore and a source of frustration. There are several products on the market to try and alleviate the problem. Most products employ a multi step approach which for most people is complicated and time consuming. Basementstopleak.com employs a much simpler process of modifying the slurry we use for sealing basement foundations, adding some water, then pouring into the crack. The important point to remember is waterproofing the crack from the bottom up. Other products try to fill the top layer of the crack which is a temporary patch, this does not address the problem of water damage deeper in the crack. Ask about concrete crack filler by basementstopleak.com! It’s inexpensive and waterproofs your cracks!

We got called out to try and fix a leak in the basement wall where the sump pump drain exited the house. This house was fairly new construction and the homeowner had already tried fixing it from the inside with spray foam. The owners where faced with a decision to dig up the dirt along the side of the house or try an inexpensive fix using Basement Stop Leak. SO ....they chose us! The foreman injected the pump rod into the ground around the exiting 4 in pvc tube and pump the STOPLEAK formula. Within seconds, the voids around the drain where found and the STOPLEAK came into the house just as the water was entering previously. After a couple minutes, the STOPLEAK firmed up and created the water barrier. This picture we shot at the time shows the STOPLEAK formula after it firmed up. The only thing yet to do it scrape away the remaining mess! THE WET basement is fixed!   Here are some cracks that go all the way down that allow water to get into the basement. The slurry has now filled those cracks.
