Simple leak or bigger problem?
- Usually a simple fix: a thin vertical crack in a poured concrete wall that seeps after heavy rain. Injection seals it from the inside.
- Get a foundation pro to look: cracks wider than a pencil, cracks that grow, stair-step cracks in block walls, or walls that bow inward. These can be structural, and sealing alone won't fix them.
- Water at the floor line, not a crack: water seeping where the wall meets the floor usually needs an interior drain and sump pump. See French drain costs.
Check outside first
Clogged gutters, short downspouts and soil that slopes toward the house push water against the wall. Fixing those can stop a crack from leaking for much less money. More in our waterproofing guide.
