Why Wall Cracks Happen
Cracks in your foundation’s walls and floor are a common occurrence. Some are natural and happen when your home’s concrete cures during new construction. However, cracks that are due to settlement are an issue. These kinds of fissures indicate structural failure. The most typical foundation problems we see that cause basement cracks are:
- Concrete floor heave
- Foundation settlement
- Bowing walls from hydrostatic pressure
Our Wall Crack FlexiSpan Solution
When we find foundation wall cracks that leak water into your home, we use our FlexiSpan solution. This patented and permanent solution is a specially designed polyurethane polymer FlexiSpan that never dries out or re-cracks. Even if your foundation settles or shifts, it flexes with the movement without breaking the seal.
If your wall cracks are a symptom of a bigger issue, like bowing walls, our repair experts will suggest installing one of our wall repair systems, as well. We highly recommend either our wall anchor or wall brace system for bowing walls to permanently stabilize your foundation and prevent future issues.

Our design specialists are trained in the recognition of these issues and can produce an approach that not only provides a dry basement but also a structurally sound basement.
