Foundation Crack Repair in Ogden, UT
Foundation crack repair in Ogden with epoxy and polyurethane injection, free estimates, and a diagnosis before any sealant goes in.
Serving Ogden and nearby communities.
A hairline crack above a basement window isn't automatically a problem. A diagonal crack that's widened since last winter is a different story. Ogden Foundation Pros looks at crack direction, width, and pattern before recommending anything, because the right fix for a cosmetic shrinkage crack is not the right fix for one caused by settling.
Ogden's rail-era housing stock sits on benchland and fill soils that move more than a new-build slab, and freeze-thaw cycling widens unsealed cracks a little more every winter. Ogden Foundation Pros matches the injection material to the cause: epoxy for structural bonding, polyurethane where water is actively getting in.

How our Foundation Crack Repair process works
Step 1Crack Inspection
Technician measures width and traces the crack's direction and pattern.
Step 2Surface Cleaning
Debris and loose material are cleared from the crack line.
Step 3Injection Port Setup
Ports are spaced along the crack for even material delivery.
Step 4Sealant Injection
Epoxy or polyurethane is injected to fill and bond the crack.
Step 5Surface Finishing
Excess material is scraped and the surface smoothed.
Step 6Final Inspection
The repair is checked for a watertight, stable seal.
Materials
Materials and methods for Foundation Crack Repair
Ogden basements see both structural settling cracks and water-driven cracks, so the crew keeps both injection types on hand.
Epoxy Injection Resin
Bonds structural cracks back together and restores load-bearing strength, the right call for a crack that isn't actively leaking.
Polyurethane Foam Sealant
Expands to fill the crack and block water infiltration, the better option once spring snowmelt is pushing moisture through.
Injection Ports
Spaced along the crack length so material reaches the full depth, not just the surface.
Surface Primer
Preps the concrete so the injected material actually bonds instead of flaking off.
Masonry Patch Compound
Finishes and blends the repaired line with the surrounding wall.
Protective Topcoat
Shields the sealed crack from future moisture exposure through the next freeze-thaw cycle.

Foundation Crack Repair FAQs
How much does foundation crack repair cost in Ogden?
Most single-crack jobs run $300-$1,200 depending on length and whether polyurethane or epoxy is used. Multiple cracks in one visit usually come in under the cost of separate trips.
How long does crack injection take?
A standard injection job is done in a single visit, usually a few hours including cure time.
Is epoxy or polyurethane better for my crack?
Epoxy bonds structural cracks for strength. Polyurethane expands and seals against active water. The crew picks based on what's actually happening at your crack.
Can I just caulk the crack myself?
Surface caulk doesn't bond into the crack or handle hydrostatic pressure, so it tends to fail within a season or two. Injection reaches the full depth of the crack.
Does a widening crack always mean I need piering?
Not always, but it's worth a free inspection. A widening or stair-step crack can be the first visible sign of settlement that needs more than injection.
Will insurance cover crack repair from soil movement?
Coverage varies by policy and cause. Check with your insurer directly, most standard policies treat gradual soil movement differently than sudden damage.
Do I need to be home during the repair?
Not required for most single-visit injection jobs, but it helps if the crew can reach the crack without obstruction.
