What is Concrete Crack Repair?

Repairing concrete cracks is an effective way to address damage to concrete surfaces caused by unstable soil and excessive moisture.

Simply sealing concrete fissures with caulk or similar substances won’t suffice. Such superficial remedies only hide the underlying issues.

Signs Your Home Needs Concrete Crack Repair

Cracks can develop on many concrete surfaces, including:

If your home’s concrete surfaces are wearing down, it may be time to consider remedial measures. These telltale signs mean your home needs concrete slab crack repair:

Visible and expanding cracks in concrete surfaces
Cracks wider than ¼”
Uneven or sinking concrete slabs
Tripping hazards
Concrete is sinking away from the house
Pitting, flaking, and staining on the concrete
Water is pooling on the concrete after rain
Weeds growing up between concrete sections

Identifying concrete cracks and other damage early allows for less invasive repairs, protecting your investment and preventing further costly damage.

Is Concrete Crack Repair Necessary?

Yes, repairing concrete cracks is crucial. Beware of “instant remedies.” They often miss the real issue. Despite techniques like mudjacking, cracks can grow into bigger problems.

Acting early can save money and keep your concrete in good shape for longer. The sooner you fix the issue, the easier the solution will be. PolyRenewal™ works best when used early, making it a key part of our home repair strategy.

What Are the Benefits of Concrete Crack Repair?

Repairing cracks in concrete brings a multitude of benefits, including the following:

Boosts Safety: Correcting imbalances and elevating depressed concrete areas reduces the risk of trips and falls. Sealing up these fissures safeguards individuals and averts vehicular damage. In essence, fixing concrete enhances the safety of your premises.
Stops Further Damage: By infusing expanding foam below weakened concrete sections, the underlying terrain is fortified, preventing further settling and shifting of the concrete slab. This preserves the condition of your concrete and prevents problems from escalating over time as soil continues to shift.
Enhances Appearance and Value: Unaddressed cracks and uneven concrete can tarnish your home’s aesthetic appeal and depreciate your property’s worth. With our concrete crack repairs, these blemished surfaces are rejuvenated. Trust in our elite products and adept crew to revive the pristine, even facade of your concrete.
Prolongs Concrete Life: Neglected small cracks can lead to extensive repairs later. Processes such as concrete lifting and stabilization maintain the slab’s integrity, often allowing us to avoid total replacement. Our offerings help extend the life of concrete surfaces.

To fully take advantage of these benefits, we suggest homeowners embrace our signature PolyRenewal™ method. Crafted with precision, our proprietary solutions surpass conventional market alternatives, promising enhanced efficacy and longevity.

How Our Concrete Crack Repairs Work

To fully repair concrete cracks, JES Foundation Repair’s certified team follows these essential steps when installing PolyRenewal™:

Drill small, penny-sized holes into the concrete and place injection ports in each hole.
Mix and prepare the two-part, closed-cell polyurethane foam.
Inject the foam beneath the concrete slabs through the ports.
Allow the expanding foam to fill the voids beneath the concrete and lift the slab.
Let the foam fully cure (approximately 15 minutes).
Remove the injection ports, then fill and smooth the drilled holes.
Seal cracks and joints to prevent future damage.

With the right tools, training, and products, JES Foundation Repair’s concrete repair process is efficient, minimally invasive, and provides long-lasting results.

Concrete Crack Repair FAQs

When should I address the cracks on my concrete?

Cracks, regardless of their size, can compromise the integrity of your concrete. While small hairline fractures might seem harmless, those wider than 1/4″ require immediate attention. Avoid DIY fixes and opt for professional repairs from JES Foundation Repair. Our PolyRenewal™ process lifts and stabilizes concrete, often helping to seal the cracks. Contact us for a free inspection and quote.

Does JES Foundation Repair address concrete cracks using fillers?

Instead of using conventional fillers, our repairs involve injecting durable polyurethane foam beneath the concrete to lift and level it. While we don’t “patch up” concrete cracks in the traditional sense, we often succeed in sealing them. After stabilization, we apply a silicone-based sealant to the cracks and adjoining joints.

What is the typical duration for the crack repair process?

Typically, the entire concrete repair process is completed within a single day, depending on the extent of the damage and the scope of the project. The PolyRenewal™ foam solidifies in just 15 minutes, allowing you to use the area shortly afterward.

_{*Disclaimer: “Concrete leveling” means the process by which cracked, uneven concrete is stabilized, and in many cases lifted, by means of PolyRenewal™ polyurethane foam. JES Foundation Repair does not guarantee that PolyRenewal™ can make your concrete perfectly level.}
