Causes of Cracks
Cracks in the wall or foundation of your home can be caused by a variety of factors. The most common factor is water damage. Water flowing through or behind your walls will wear away at them. Cracks are usually the first sign of potentially greater damage. If nothing is done the cracks will grow until your home potentially becomes unstable.
Water isn't the only cause of cracks. Cracks can also be caused by factors like tree roots growing into your walls or even shoddy construction. The source of the damage may be different, but the need for wall crack repair services remains the same, and thankfully Utech Waterproofing has the experience to resolve any problem.
Repairing Wall Cracks
Utech Waterproofing uses a number of proven methods to restore walls and foundations quickly and effectively. When viable, our first option is our exclusive Inject-A-Seal waterproofing process. This process seals concrete walls at the source, both repairing the damage and preventing future damage.
For light damage that isn't likely to repeat, especially on interior walls, we also often use adhesive polymers. For specific types of damage, this treatment lasts roughly a decade. For truly extensive damage, we may have to redo your foundation. When that is the only option, our technical staff are skilled with installing 'dry pack' mortar, jacks, wall braces, and anchors.
