Photo Album: FlexiSpan Crack Repair System resolves water seeping in from cracks in Hamilton, OH
A Hamilton homeowner discovered some cracks in the foundation that were seeping water into the basement and called The Basement Doctor of Cincinnati for help to resolve this problem.
We installed the FlexiSpan Crack Repair System to resolve this problem the homeowner was having in the basement. The FlexiSpan Crack Repair System is a patented process developed by Basement Systems. First, a bead of sealant is used to seal the crack. This is a common way to repair cracks in the foundation walls and has been used for many years. The problem with only using this method is that further settling of the foundation could cause this crack to reopen and water could begin to seep in again! The FlexiSpan Crack Repair System takes it a few steps further to make sure the wall is permanently fixed. The FlexiSpan Crack Repair System also adds a FlexiSpan Foam Drain Strip. If any water gets through the sealant, it will be drained into the Foam Drain Strip and into the drainage below. The next step is a sealant overlay that seals the repair from top to bottom. This will permanently repair this leaking crack and the homeowner will not have to worry about water intrusion from this crack again.
The homeowner reported that they were very satisfied and highly recommend our company. The entire review can be seen on Google Reviews.
