Foundation Repair Photo Album: Cracks Sealed with FlexiSpan to Prevent Future Damage in Lambertville, NJ

This basement in Lambertville NJ had vertical cracks on several walls of the foundation. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st to have a Specialist come out and discuss the options they had to find a permanent solution to the foundation problems. Quality 1st Basement System installed FlexiSpan in the cracks of the foundation to prevent further damage and water from breaking through. FlexiSpan is a quick installation that provides a permanent solution that eliminates messy, unreliable epoxy or urethane injections. First bead of sealant is applied to the crack to stop crack leakage, then FlexiSpan Foam Drain strip is applied over the sealant as a precaution in case water manages to leak through which would direct the water down to the drainage system in the floor. Finally a tough, flexible, waterproof and permanent Sealant Overlay is applied. The homeowner was amazed at how quickly the insulation process was and how clean and neat the product looked on his basement walls.
