How Do Foundation Cracks Occur?
In some cases, fixing just one foundation crack might not be enough. Our experts will also help you understand why it appeared in the first place.
Poor construction
Not all foundation walls are made equal. The materials and the technology are not always made to last more than 10-15 years.
Badly mixed concrete will react to the weather and temperature changes, revealing all the construction team oversights.

Types of Foundation Cracks
Repairing different kinds of foundation cracks requires different solutions, technologies, and materials. Identify what crack you have so we can find the most cost-effective way to fix it.
Hairline foundation cracks
The most common type. Thin, barely notable cracks (one or multiple in one place) that occur because of soil pressure. These cracks are unopened and rarely cause leaks at this stage.
Vertical foundation cracks
Vertical cracks occur because of soil pressure and are fairly common, but do not necessarily mean serious foundation structure issues. They still can grow and cause wet basement problems.
Horizontal foundation cracks
Horizontal cracks represent the biggest threat to your basement’s structural integrity, grow faster than other types, and should be fixed at early stages — as soon as possible.
What if you do not fix a foundation crack?
Both small and large cracks have similar adverse consequences for your health, your house, and your safety. It’s important to repair any basement crack as soon as you notice one.
Damaged Foundation
Your home’s foundation keeps your house fixed in place, keeps it stable and firm. A foundation crack is a threat to every aspect of it:
- Structural integrity — lost and compromised;
- Visual changes — the “sinking” facade;
- Dangerous decrease in support for the house weight
One by one, the problems will occur. From more cracks to cosmetic issues both inside and outside. It's just a question of time.
Risk of Wet Basement
Every crack is an invitation and an open door to your basement. Sooner or later, the water from the soil will start leaking through the walls or the floor, with all the consequences:
- Damp basement with excess water;
- Uncomfortably increased humidity;
- Risk of insects and allergy development.
There’s nothing good about having a wet basement. The more you wait — the worse it gets and the more expensive options you may need to make it dry and comfortable again.
Health and allergy issues
A basement crack by itself is not a health hazard, but it’s a sign of a whole spectrum of dangers on their way. If you skip on basement crack repair, it may lead to:
- Mold growth, including the toxic species;
- Wet basement allergy development;
- Aspergillosis due to the mold spores.
Some of these effects may occur, some may not. We frankly wish you never having to face them. The only way to be sure is to repair all your basement cracks — even the tiniest ones.

Best Foundation Crack Repair Alternatives
Foundation crack repair is effective, but it’s a troubleshooting solution — not the way to be 100% sure that your basement is safe from leaks and water’s degrading effects.
Willfix team has over 20 years of experience in eliminating all sorts of wet basement issues and we’re ready to help anyway.
- Exterior Basement Waterproofing
- Interior Basement Waterproofing
- Concrete forming
- Concrete Crack Repair
- Basement Crack Repair
- Epoxy Crack Injection
- Basement Underpinning
Exterior (and commonly called “external”) basement waterproofing is the way to protect your basement from the outside, so the water does not make it to the inner side of your basement walls at all. It’s a time-tested and reliable solution that the majority of our clients prefer.
Exterior basement waterproofing might be a better option when:
- You have no structures on the outside perimeter of your basement walls and the area can get easily excavated;
- You want to stop the water from even touching your basement walls by applying all the waterproofing materials around them, not on the inside;
- You want to increase your home’s price significantly and rest assured that no leaks will ever occur.
The WillFix team has over 20 years of experience in exterior basement waterproofing and we’re ready to commit.
The key difference is in the name: interior (or sometimes called internal) basement waterproofing means that no works take place on the outside of your basement. Instead, the water that will leak from the walls is channeled away from the basement through a complex draining system.
Interior basement waterproofing might be a better option if
- You have air conditioning, a beloved flowerbed, expensive stone tiles, or other objects next to your house walls that make exterior excavation difficult and expensive;
- You want to have better control of the system, with access to all the elements of it from the inside of your basement;
- You want a more technological and modern system with no loss in quality of your waterproofing.
WillFix experts are experienced in interior basement waterproofing and we’re ready to commit.
Concrete forming allows you to build brand new structures for any of your project needs. Our experts can accomplish residential and commercial projects regardless of the complexity of the task:
- Columns, swimming pulls and patio slabs to change the appearance or functionality of your property;
- Foundations, basement walls and retaining walls to make sure your house is stable and fixed inn place, with no future water damage issues;
- Mud slabs, staircases, or full-scale footings that will last and retain their quality for as much as you need them.
The WillFix team has more than 20 years of experience and we guarantee that only the best materials and machinery will be used in your concrete forming project.
Concrete in your basement walls was never made to last for ages and withstand the immense water pressure from the soil. The walls bend and bow, deform and lose the structural soundness. The best way to fix the issue is to repair the damaged area.
The WillFix team has over 20 years of experience in concrete crack repairs. We know how to do it right:
- Only top-quality hydraulic cement will be used in the process;
- Seal the cracks efficiently — with no chances of them appearing again;
- Restore the original look of your walls so they don’t look repaired at all.
A concrete crack repair is never the final solution because it doesn’t protect your walls from the groundwater’s degrading effects, but it’s enough to restore your foundation’s original structure.
Basement cracks are relatively harmless when small, but the frequent rainfalls, snowy winters, and sometimes — extreme temperature changes can make a small crack expand dramatically overnight.
For every basement crack repair, whether the crack is around the window frame, on the floor, or on the wall — we have a professional solution:
- Epoxy injections for small and hairline cracks;
- Hydraulic cement and sealing for wider cracks;
- Full-scale basement structure restoration for the worst cases.
The only unchanging aspect is the result: you get your problem fixed with no chances for it to appear ever again.
Epoxy crack injection is the fastest and the least expensive way to fix a crack in your basement. It’s one of the most popular wet basement repair methods, but it won’t work with cracks that already leak — only with the ones that are potentially dangerous.
Epoxy crack injection is the perfect option for basement repair when:
- The cracks are tiny and just potentially dangerous;
- The cracks are relatively wide (under ¼ of an inch) but there are few of them;
- The cracks appeared because of poor construction techniques.
WillFix professionals use only high-quality epoxy with commercial-grade ports that leave no chances to the tiniest hollow spots in your basement walls.
When you need to enlarge your living space or make your basement more comfortable — you need floor lowering, not waterproofing. We have a certified engineer to do the drawings and a team of professionals to help you with basement underpinning.
Basement underpinning has multiple benefits:
- Dramatically increase your home living space and value;
- Easily examine and fix the communications or plumbing to avoid future problems;
- Turn your crawl space into a fully functional extra floor in your home.
WillFix has over two decades in lowering basement floors in Toronto. We can add extra 2 feet of height to your basement to make it a truly comfortable and functional area.
