Crack Repair

Have you noticed cracks in your foundation wall? Wonder if you need to fix these cracks? Read on for your answer.

Foundation walls constructed of poured concrete or concrete blocks can often feature cracks - which can lead to massive water leaking and intake in your basement. Cracks can range in size from hairline fractures to large gaps and can often weave their way through the concrete, weakening the entire concrete system.

Cracks can result from vertical stress from the weight of your home, lateral stress from soil surrounding your home, low-quality building materials, and poor construction methods. Concrete cracks only get worse, as the stress conditions that caused the wall to crack are still present and because concrete has no ability to fix or repair itself.

Luckily, BWN can fix your concrete cracks. BWN specializes in crack repair via waterproofing the crack so it doesn't leak water and structurally repairing the crack to prevent further compromise to your home's foundation. BWN uses the most advanced materials and methodology on the market today to waterproof and structurally repair cracks, as well as structurally repair foundation walls, all backed by BWN's award-winning lifetime warranty.

If you notice cracks in your drywall walls and/or ceiling, cracks in exterior brick, concrete, or masonry, separations of wood trim at the exterior corners of your home, un-level floors, or doors and windows that do not open and close properly, your home is in need of repair.

BWN can employ such techniques of carbon fiber/Kevlar mash, concrete slurry and steel, foundation wall rebuild, chemical grouting, and epoxy injection to structurally repair cracks. Repair the problem now to avoid further damage and expense.

Polyurethane/Epoxy Injection

BWN employs the use of non-invasive polyurethane and epoxy injections to help solve wet basement problems. Polyurethane injection fills in cracks in walls and floors, while epoxy injection is used to solve structural problems in poured concrete. BWN can also inject certain urethanes into the soil surrounding your home as a soil stabilization method to help prevent sink holes and other foundation-damaging problems.

Polyurethane injection gently and slowly fills an entire basement crack from bottom to top and front to back in order to block water from entering the crack. Polyurethane bonds with concrete to together withstand hydrostatic pressure and keep water from seeping into your basement.

Epoxy injection is used for structural repairs in poured concrete, specifically for welding cracks back together to restore the concrete's original strength. Epoxy injection effectively seals a crack to prevent moisture entry, as well as welds the structure together and prevents premature deterioration of the concrete.
