Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Repairing a Cracked Wall with FlexiSpan in Congers, NY
There was a crack in the wall of the laundry room in this homeowner’s house in Congers, NY. Cracks can be very problematic, as they are a great pathway for water to enter your home. The groundwater within the soil around the foundation of your home can seep through these cracks and cause water damage to the surrounding areas.
To combat this issue for this homeowner, we used our polyurethane sealant known as FlexiSpan to permanently seal the cracks in the wall. This sealant is special because it will never dry or crack, and flexes with the natural movement of the wall. Other products used to “fix” this problem end up failing over time due to being a firm substance that is unable to move with the concrete wall as it shrinks.
As another level of protection against moisture and dampness, we also installed our CleanSpace Wall System over the cracked wall as well. It is completely waterproof and contains anti-microbial protection. It’s also a great solution for covering uneven surfaces and irregular walls. Moisture and humidity will no longer be a concern with this product in place, and the walls look better than ever.
This homeowner will never worry about the crack in their laundry room or water coming into their basement ever again!
