Not every foundation crack means trouble, but the difference between a cosmetic shrinkage crack and a structural one matters before you decide what to do about it. Foundation crack repair starts with identifying the crack type, then sealing it the full depth with epoxy or polyurethane injection rather than a surface patch.

Freeze-thaw cycling along the Wasatch Front widens cracks every winter-to-spring transition, and bench-lot grading in Lindon directs runoff toward some foundations more than others, so a crack that looked minor last fall can grow by spring. Lindon Foundation Pros inspects the crack pattern first, because a stair-step crack in brick behaves differently than a vertical hairline in poured concrete.

What's included

What's Included With Foundation Crack Repair

Typically included: crack inspection and classification, surface prep, injection port setup, epoxy or polyurethane injection, surface finishing. Optional: exterior inspection to identify what's driving the crack (grading, drainage), protective topcoat. Customer prep: clear access to the crack from the basement or crawlspace side and note when you first noticed it growing.

    Surface Cleaning

    Debris and loose material are removed from the crack area.

  3. Injection Port Setup photo
    Step 3

    Injection Port Setup

    Ports are installed along the crack to allow material injection.

  4. Sealant Injection photo
    Step 4

    Sealant Injection

    Epoxy or polyurethane is injected to fill and bond the crack.

  5. Surface Finishing photo
    Step 5

    Surface Finishing

    Excess material is removed and the surface is smoothed.

Materials

Materials and Methods for Foundation Crack Repair

Material choice depends on whether the crack is structural, leaking, or both.

  • Epoxy Injection Resin photo

    Epoxy Injection Resin

    Bonds structural cracks for added strength and stability, the right call for load-bearing cracks that aren't actively leaking.

  • Polyurethane Foam Sealant photo

    Polyurethane Foam Sealant

    Expands to fill cracks and block water infiltration, suited to cracks weeping after spring snowmelt.

  • Injection Ports photo

    Injection Ports

    Allow controlled delivery of sealant into the crack cavity so the fill reaches the full depth, not just the surface.

  • Surface Primer photo

    Surface Primer

    Prepares concrete surfaces for proper material adhesion before injection.

  • Masonry Patch Compound photo

    Masonry Patch Compound

    Used to finish and blend repaired surface areas on brick or block foundations.

  • Protective Topcoat photo

    Protective Topcoat

    Applied to shield the repaired area from moisture exposure through future freeze-thaw cycles.

FAQs

Foundation Crack Repair FAQs

How much does foundation crack repair cost in Lindon?

Cost depends on crack length, depth, and whether epoxy or polyurethane fits the situation. Most single-crack jobs are a modest line item compared to piering.

How long does crack injection take?

A few hours per crack , often finished same day as the inspection.

Do I need a permit for crack injection?

Usually not for an isolated crack repair. If the crack is tied to a broader settlement issue needing structural correction, a permit may apply.

Can I just caulk a foundation crack myself?

Surface caulk can hold back minor moisture temporarily but doesn't seal the crack through its full depth. If there's any hydrostatic pressure behind the wall, caulk tends to fail again within a season or two.

Is a stair-step crack in brick serious?

It can be. Stair-step cracks often follow mortar joints and usually point to foundation settlement rather than simple shrinkage. Worth having inspected rather than assumed cosmetic.

When should I call about a foundation crack near me?

Call if the crack has grown noticeably over a year, if it's leaking, or if it follows a stair-step pattern in brick or block.

What affects crack repair pricing?

Crack length, depth, and whether epoxy or polyurethane foam is the right material for the situation.

How do I prepare for a crack repair visit?

Clear access to the crack and have any photos ready showing how it's changed, especially across a winter-to-spring season if you've got them.
