Foundation Wall Cracks: Leaking Walls and Seepage
A frequent problem in your basement are foundation cracks, commonly caused by the house settling on the foundation or the ground beneath it. Hairline cracks to 1/8" width or larger cracks can be a concern for water seepage and basement leaks, creating a damp basement that leads to mold and mildew and a variety of health problems.

Major foundation cracks introduce other structural issues to the home, such as cracks to the house walls, corners of doorways and around windows. Cracks can be repaired by us from either the exterior or interior of the foundation. Which solution to proceed with depends on considering if it is a finished or unfinished basement, as well as other obstructions to the problem area.

How Does Your Company Inject Sealant?
| The right way to repair cracks | The wrong way to repair cracks |
| Chicagoland drills into the foundation and utilizes an industrial pump at 6000 psi, which stops the water at the exterior surface before it can enter your wall. (High-tech surgery) | Other companies use a hand caulk gun at 120 psi that only coats the interior surface. Low-pressure injection does have limitations and is not very suitable. |
| (High tech surgery) | (Think of a band-aid approach) |
