Foundation Crack Repair

Not every crack is a structural emergency — and not every crack is harmless. We inspect, measure, and document foundation cracks in brick, block, and poured concrete, then recommend injection, carbon-fiber reinforcement, or nothing at all when nothing's actually wrong.

About this service

What foundation crack repair actually is.

Foundation crack repair covers everything from sealing a hairline crack in a poured basement wall to reinforcing a bowing block wall with carbon fiber or steel. In metro Atlanta the two most common patterns are stair-step cracks in exterior brick veneer (usually a symptom of foundation movement) and horizontal or diagonal cracks in basement walls (usually hydrostatic pressure from saturated Piedmont clay).

The right repair depends entirely on the cause. We measure, document, and diagnose first — then match the fix to the problem. Sometimes it's a $500 injection. Sometimes it's structural piers. And sometimes the honest answer is "monitor it — it's not moving."

Warning signs

Cracks worth an inspection

Stair-step cracks in exterior brick or block wider than a nickel

Basement walls that appear to bow inward or lean

Repair methods

How we repair foundation cracks

Epoxy Injection

Structural repair for non-moving cracks in poured concrete. Bonds the crack faces stronger than the surrounding concrete.

Polyurethane Injection

Flexible, waterproof seal for cracks that leak. Expands to fill irregular voids and stays elastic through freeze-thaw.

Carbon Fiber Reinforcement

High-tensile straps epoxied to bowing basement walls. Stops inward movement without excavation.

Wall Anchors & Steel I-Beams

For severe bowing or leaning walls, we install helical wall anchors or steel I-beams to actively straighten the wall.

Our process

From crack inspection to lasting repair.

01
Crack inspection
We measure width, length, and offset — and use crack monitors when we're not sure whether it's active.
02
Diagnosis
Cosmetic, hydrostatic, or structural? The cause determines the repair.
03
Targeted repair
Injection, carbon fiber, or full structural work — priced per repair, not per fear.
04
Warranty
Injection repairs carry a workmanship warranty; structural reinforcement carries a long-term transferable warranty.

Frequently asked

Common questions about foundation crack repair.

Which foundation cracks are serious?＋

Horizontal cracks in a basement wall, stair-step cracks in exterior brick wider than a nickel, and any crack that's actively leaking water are all reasons to have it inspected. Hairline vertical cracks in poured concrete are usually cosmetic shrinkage.

How much does foundation crack repair cost?＋

Simple epoxy or polyurethane injection typically runs $400–$900 per crack. Carbon-fiber straps for bowing walls run $500–$800 per strap. Structural repair with piers is priced separately.

Will crack injection stop water intrusion for good?＋

Polyurethane injection seals cracks against water permanently in most cases. If the underlying cause is hydrostatic pressure or grading, we'll also recommend drainage work — sealing without fixing the water source is a short-term win.

Is carbon fiber as strong as steel reinforcement?＋

For bowing basement walls under moderate lateral load, carbon fiber is stronger in tension than steel and doesn't corrode. For severe bowing (>2 inches), we spec steel I-beams or wall anchors instead.
