WHAT IS FOUNDATION CRACK REPAIR?
Foundation crack repair is the process of sealing and reinforcing fractures in your basement walls to prevent water infiltration and maintain structural integrity. Cracks often occur due to concrete shrinkage during curing or soil settlement over time, creating direct paths for moisture to seep into your home.
At TitanShield, we utilize advanced hydrophobic polyurethane injection systems for interior repairs. This expandable resin travels through the entire thickness of the foundation wall, creating a flexible, permanent seal. For severe structural issues, exterior repair methods involving excavation and multi-layered membrane shielding are employed to stop water before it touches the concrete.
Understanding the difference between cosmetic hairline cracks and significant structural threats is key. Our Toronto experts provide precise diagnostics to determine the most effective solution for your specific property, ensuring long-term protection against the GTA's varied climate conditions.

Common Questions About Foundation Crack Repair
How long does a foundation crack repair take?
Most standard crack injections can be completed within 2 to 4 hours. Larger structural repairs or exterior waterproofing projects may take 1 to 3 days depending on the scope and soil conditions.
Is polyurethane injection a permanent fix?
Yes. TitanShield uses high-pressure hydrophobic polyurethane that remains flexible after curing. This allows the seal to withstand the natural expansion and contraction of your foundation, providing a long-term water barrier.
Can you repair foundation cracks from the inside?
Absolutely. Interior injection is often the most cost-effective solution for vertical shrinkage cracks. However, if the crack is structural or needs wider protection, we may recommend exterior repair methods.
Will these cracks come back after repair?
Our repairs are backed by a comprehensive warranty. While we seal the specific crack permanently, it is important to maintain proper drainage around your home to prevent new stress points from forming elsewhere.
How do I know if a crack is structural or just a leak risk?
Generally, thin vertical cracks are non-structural shrinkage cracks. Wide cracks (over 1/4 inch), horizontal cracks, or stair-step cracks in block walls often indicate shifting or settlement issues that require structural reinforcement.
