Concrete Crack Injection
Concrete Crack injection is the process of identifying and injecting a fracture in a solid concrete slab. There are many different materials and methods to do this.
Epoxy crack injection is likely the cheapest way of stopping water penetration but the lack of flexibility allows for failure of the bond in a few short years.
Polyurethane is a step above epoxy due to the fact that the polyurethane has the ability to move with the concrete although it does tend to break down over time.
Both of these methods are better than letting water penetrate your home but are merely a band aid fix of the problem.
Beachcastle Waterproofing has a solution to both of these problems. Our elastomeric membrane has the required flexibility and also stands the test of time. We inject and completely fill the fracture at pressures sometimes exceeding 5500 psi, something very few company's can hold claim to. This high pressure ensures complete coverage and allows our water friendly material to do its job best.
