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.
Not every Lexington, VA foundation crack needs the same material or approach. A vertical settlement crack behaves differently than a stair-step block crack, and we adjust injection technique and material to match what's actually happening in the wall.
Our technicians are trained to tell a cosmetic hairline crack apart from one that signals structural movement, before recommending a fix.
An actively leaking crack rarely waits for a convenient afternoon — we prioritize dispatch for Lexington, VA cracks that are currently letting water in.
Pricing is based on crack length and injection material, quoted in writing before we drill any injection ports.
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.
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.
We document crack width and location with photos before and after injection so you have a record of the repair.
Selling a Lexington, VA 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.
We also check the exterior grading near the crack, since poor drainage is often what caused it in the first place.
We explain why we're recommending one material over the other so the choice isn't a black box.
Most single-crack injections are completed in a few hours, start to finish, in one visit.
"We were selling the house and the inspector flagged a foundation crack. They came out within two days, injected epoxy, and gave us documentation for the buyer's lender."
— Lexington Seller
"Polyurethane injection stopped an active leak the same day they showed up — didn't expect it to be that fast."
— 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
Crack classification is separate from water contamination — we assess whether the crack is structural or cosmetic based on width, pattern, and any wall bowing.
Catching a crack early with injection usually costs less than waiting until it's actively leaking.
Epoxy is better for structural bonding on a non-leaking crack; polyurethane is better for a crack that's actively weeping since it cures even with water present.
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.
Yes — we provide before-and-after photos and a repair summary that Lexington, VA buyers, sellers, and lenders commonly request.
