Causes of Wall Cracks

Soil Movement

Soil movement can have a significant impact on foundations, as the shifting of soils can cause excessive pressure and stress to be placed on the foundation that it cannot withstand.

When soil shifts, it causes the foundation to settle unevenly. This can lead to cracks in walls, floors, and ceilings; crumbling mortar between brick or stone blocks; buckling walls; and shifting of interior walls.

If these symptoms are present, it’s important to have a professional inspect your home immediately in order to assess the extent of damage and advise you on the best course of action.

Hydrostatic Pressure

When hydrostatic pressure builds up in the soil around the foundation, it puts an immense amount of force upon the foundation walls. Consequently, these walls may begin to crack or bow due to the horizontal force of the water.

Additionally, hydrostatic pressure can cause basement floors and walls to become damp, leading to mold growth and other health hazards. Maryland Mold & Waterproofing offers drainage options to mitigate this issue, and repair options when the pressure has already compromised the structure.

Carbon Fiber Strips

Carbon fiber strips are an increasingly popular method of repairing foundation cracks. The strips are made from a combination of carbon and polymers, and they are much stronger than traditional concrete or steel. They also have a high degree of flexibility and weight, making them ideal for use in applications like foundation repair. Once cured, the carbon fiber strips reinforce the damaged area, creating a strong bond that holds the wall together and prevents future cracking or crumbling.

Epoxi Injections

Epoxy injections are one of the most effective techniques for repairing cracks in concrete walls. The epoxy is injected into the crack, where it bonds and seals the damaged area. This process can be used to repair cracks that occur due to foundation settling or shrinkage, water damage, freeze-thaw damage, or general wear and tear. Once cured, epoxy injections provide a strong and reliable repair that is far more durable than traditional patching methods such as glue or cement.,

  Was very knowledgeable and gave honest feedback on how to fix the problem, versus trying to just sell me something. Will definitely use again

  We used Maryland Mold and Waterproofing to remediate mold from our HVAC system and to water proof our basement. That meant coordinating an HVAC company as well as the waterproofing done by Maryland Mold and Waterproofing. Colin Hall was our representative and coordinated this beautifully. He was not only very professional but made sure the job was done to our satisfaction and even came out himself to put our basement shelving back together when the job was complete. He takes pride in his work and made sure we were well taken care of. We finally have a dry basement after years of rain water infiltration. I highly recommend Maryland Mold and Waterproofing and hope you have a similar experience.

  Maryland Mold and Waterproofing did a great job at performing mold remediation and crawlspace encapsulation on my house. I was pleased with all aspects of the process, from the initial estimate to project completion.
I solicited estimates from three companies, including two national enterprises that advertise heavily. One never bothered to respond. The other sent someone to provide an estimate who was supposed to be a structural engineer (at least that was claimed in the company’s brochure), but had no such credentials on his business card. I had some concerns about possible structural problems, and the rep told me I needed a support beam and four jacks to buttress a “seriously under-engineered” floor.  Subsequent attempts to follow up with that company met with no response.
I decided to contract with Maryland Mold and Waterproofing and part of the contract included having an independent structural engineer evaluate the space.  His evaluation concluded that there were no serious structural issues, just normal settling for a house that is 50 years old.
The first MMW crew came out to remove all the moldy insulation and applied a fungicide in the crawlspace. Within a matter of days a chronic problem I have had with my sinuses that I thought I was stuck with for the rest of my life cleared up.  A few weeks later a crew came to finish the encapsulation and install a dehumidifier.  Both crews worked hard and efficiently in a very confined space and were courteous.  I recommended the company to my neighbors, and MMW is doing the work on two more houses on my block.

  Nick did a fine job of explaining our project and his team was here on schedule and did quality work with no problems. They treated the mold, encapsulated the crawl space and installed a dehumidifier and a turtl access hatch. Excellent work.

  Great experience MD Mold and Waterproofing.  The entire team was professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and did their jobs well.  We have gone through a complete remodel of the old home we just purchased and have dealt with a million trades and contractors.  The team from MD Mold and Waterproofing rose to the top!  We'd highly recommend using them.  Hats off to you, Nick and Colin, Freddy and the other gentleman who have made our basement water-free :-)

  After our drain broke we discovered mold under the floor.  Maryland Mold and Waterproofing provided a quote and was able to respond quickly after our agreement  was signed.  The folks were professional and courteous.  Their efforts were much appreciated.   They are definitely a company to consider if one has a potential mold issue.
