Emergency Dispatch
Low-pressure injection bonds cracks from the inside out, often in a single visit.
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.
Misclassifying a crack is the most common mistake in this trade, and it's the first thing we check on every Lexington, IL job.
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.
Polyurethane expands to fill voids behind an actively weeping wall; epoxy is reserved for cracks that need structural bonding.
We scope every Foundation Crack Repair job in person before quoting it, since two properties with the same symptom rarely need the same fix.
Epoxy-injected cracks regain much of their original structural strength, which matters for load-bearing foundation walls.
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 Lexington, IL home with a flagged foundation crack? We can inspect, repair, and provide documentation for the buyer's lender or inspector.
Tell us the crack's location, whether it's actively leaking, and roughly how wide it is so we can bring the right materials.
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.
"Crack in our basement wall had been leaking for a year before we finally called. Injection took less than an afternoon and it's been dry since."
— Lexington Seller
"They explained why our crack was structural and not just cosmetic, which the previous contractor never bothered to check."
— Lexington Homeowner
"Had two cracks — one needed epoxy, one needed polyurethane. They matched material to each one instead of using the same thing on both."
— Lexington Customer
"Stair-step crack in our block wall had us worried about the whole foundation. Turned out to be isolated and fixable with injection."
— Lexington Homeowner
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.
