Wall Cracks

WE CAN FIX ANY WALL CRACK – WET OR DRY – FROM THE INTERIOR.

Repaired and water free in less than 2 hours.

We utilize our specialize sealing process and SP-3 Polyurethane.

Transferable warranty.

SP-3 IS a WATER-ACTIVATED Polyurethane THAT:

Fills the cracks from the interior to exterior.

Produces a pliable membrane.

Reacts immediately to moisture, creating a lasting bond in 40 seconds or less.

When servicing thousands of home owners and professionally managed properties, it becomes critical that they have the very best in tooling and products. Having long-term performance in sealants is critical when service warranties are given. This is why Mr. Sponge Waterproofing embarked on a venture 25 years ago to develop their own blend of water-activated polyurethane.

Couple this with the owner-operated service and you get the highest control and application possible in leak prevention services.

In cases where wall cracks have been previously repaired by other contractors and have failed, we can use our injection process to stop the water entry immediately. Our polyurethane will adapt and flow around the materials and through the crack sealing it all the way to the exterior.

EXAMPLES OF OLD WATERPROOFING
METHODS WE CAN REPAIR:

Epoxy Injections

Channel drains

Caulk type sealants

French drains

Hydraulic cements

Exterior membranes

Fiberglass

De-watering panels

WHY DIG WHEN OUR PROCESS SEALS FROM THE
INSIDE ALL THE WAY TO THE OUTSIDE?

Digging a basement on the outside can be expensive and upset the landscaping around your house. Sealing the leak at the source is the best method of repair. Instead of digging, why not use a process that pushes the sealant all the way to the outside where the water is entering. Our process will travel to the outside shutting off water where it is important, the source.

Here are example photos after an injection showing the polyurethane traveling through the wall crack to the exterior (reverse) of the injection. This shows the sealant SP-3 travels through the cracks in the walls to the source without expensive excavation methods.

WE CAN REPAIR THE WORST CASE BASEMENT
WALL CRACK CONDITIONS

There are many “worst case” conditions when encountering basement wall crack leaks. One of the most common and most difficult to stop is when previous waterproofing methods have been used and have failed. These are considered in the waterproofing industry to be “dirty”, meaning that they have other materials applied. We can inject through those materials and achieve the same seal and a “dry” crack. Below are examples of “worst” case conditions.

This example is a residential wall crack that has been repaired with several applications by waterproofers that had failed. The method was the 1970’s era channel drain repair. Mr. Sponge can inject this type of leak, stop the water and warranty the repair for 20 years with a one-time transferrable warranty.

In some cases, companies will offer this (floor/drain panel) application for standard wall crack repair in place of new injection technology. When this occurs, companies will install a plastic panel over the crack and cut the floor to install a new drain line. This allows the crack to drain continually without stopping the water and creating an environment for mold to grow.

THIS competitor’s TECHNIQUE IS
INEFFECTIVE BECAUSE:

It does not stop water.

In the photo above, the plastic panel has been removed prior to injecting this leak correctly.

It allows mold to grow behind the panel.

This shows how the mold will grow behind the panel as water continues to seep in the basement.
