Is that crack in your foundation wall getting wider, or has it looked the same for years? That distinction matters more than the crack's length. American Fork Foundation Pros checks crack pattern and width before recommending anything, because a hairline settling crack and a structural one need different fixes.
Freeze-thaw cycling along the Wasatch Front widens cracks every winter that a homeowner might otherwise ignore in summer. Left alone, water gets in, the crack grows, and a cosmetic issue turns into a structural one.

How our Foundation Crack Repair process works
Step 1Crack Inspection
Each crack is examined to determine type, width, and cause.
Step 2Surface Cleaning
Debris and loose material are removed from the crack area.
Step 3Injection Port Setup
Ports are installed along the crack to allow material injection.
Step 4Sealant Injection
Epoxy or polyurethane is injected to fill and bond the crack.
Step 5Surface Finishing
Excess material is removed and the surface is smoothed.
Step 6Final Inspection
The repair is checked to confirm a watertight and stable seal.
Materials
Materials and methods for Foundation Crack Repair
Which material we use depends on whether the crack is structural or actively leaking.
Epoxy Injection Resin
bonds structural cracks for added strength, the right call when the crack is dry but compromising the wall's integrity.
Polyurethane Foam Sealant
expands to block active water infiltration, suited to cracks still weeping after snowmelt.
Injection Ports
allow controlled, even delivery of sealant through the full depth of the crack.
Surface Primer
preps the concrete so the sealant actually bonds instead of flaking off later.
Masonry Patch Compound
blends the finished repair into the surrounding surface.
Protective Topcoat
shields the repair from continued moisture exposure through future winters.

DIY vs hiring a pro for Foundation Crack Repair
| DIY | Hire a pro |
|---|---|
| Monitoring a hairline crack's width over a season | Any crack wider than a quarter inch |
| Keeping gutters clear to reduce water pooling near the crack | Diagonal or stair-step cracking, which often signals movement, not just shrinkage |
| Sealing truly cosmetic surface hairlines with basic caulk as a stopgap | Cracks that are actively weeping water, since store-bought filler won't bond under hydrostatic pressure the way injected epoxy does |

FAQs
Foundation Crack Repair FAQs
How do I know if my foundation cracks are serious or just cosmetic?
Width, direction, and whether it's actively changing matter most. Diagonal or stair-step cracks wider than a quarter inch, or ones that keep growing, usually point to structural movement rather than normal shrinkage.
What's the difference between epoxy and polyurethane injection?
Epoxy bonds structural cracks and restores strength to the wall. Polyurethane expands and flexes, making it better for cracks that are actively letting water through.
How much does crack injection cost?
Most single-crack injections run a few hundred to over a thousand dollars depending on crack length and material. A free estimate gives an accurate number for your specific crack.
Can I just fill a crack myself?
Store-bought caulk can hold back minor seepage temporarily, but it doesn't bond the way injected epoxy does, and it won't stop a structural crack from continuing to move.
Will crack repair stop future cracking?
It seals the current crack and restores strength at that spot. If the underlying settlement or pressure issue isn't addressed, new cracks can still form elsewhere.
