Cost Comparison for Foundation Repair

Getting Value for Your Dollar

I injected a half-height stub wall today with a serious leak, on the far edge of my service territory. The water came in the back of the laundry room, spreading under the framed wall and into the under-house garage.

They had a local handyman give them a quote and he described the job as Vee-ing the crack out and then filling it with hydraulic cement. When the price he quoted seemed too high, with no guarantee of success, much less permanence, they looked further and found me. I explained that I inject the crack completely with urethane resin, and that it comes with a life time guarantee. That is a good foundation repair.

So why did they pick me over the local guy? THE COST WAS THE SAME! The local handyman wanted the same price for the job that was only a surface patch, with no guarantee, as I was offering WITH a guarantee.

Now I'm not saying I'm going to match every handyman's price on a foundation repair. What I am saying is that you can get the job done right, and it is well worth it!

What happens when you V-out a crack, pack it with hydraulic cement & caulk? Then someone comes by years later & treats it again, trying to inject the V-seam with urethane! It doesn't work. You have to get to the crack to inject the urethane to make a permanent fix.

There can be leaks from wall cracks in foundations, but sometimes the bigger culprit is a failing or undersized sump pump or drainage lines.
