Instructions for 30' Epoxy Contractor Kit. Applied Technologies is a manufacturer of commercial grade, fast setting epoxy materials used to repair concrete foundation cracks. This video explains how to use our Epoxy Contractor Foundation Crack Repair Kit. This kit is available in two sizes, a 30' kit or 60' kit. The kit uses our A-Tech 212 LV low viscosity epoxy resin. The epoxy re-enforces the cracked concrete. A-Tech 212 LV meets ASTM C-881 Standard Specification for Epoxy-Resin-Base Bonding Systems for Concrete. After curing it has a compressive strength of 12,500 psi. The tensile strength is 8500 psi. These are higher than standard concrete used in foundations. Epoxy crack injection will also stop water leaks. These step by step instructions are an excellent way for a homeowner or professional to learn how to repair a basement wall crack with epoxy injection.

Love this solution. No drilling into the foundation required!

@PacoOtis 3 года назад

Thanks Dude! We owe you a beer!!

@acostaae90 Год назад

We had this done on one of our properties once cured can you grind down that grey paste or samd down flush with concrete to paint the concrete for smooth finish, we want a cleaner look on exterior as to not draw away potential buyers, can you use a chisel to get rid of the excess paste or sand down?

@bobwhelk2117 Год назад

So much for removing the paint!!

@rondail5675 4 месяца назад

What if the cement inside the crack is damp? Use Epoxy or Polyurethane?

@joeprager9961 3 месяца назад

Based on my research, expoxy is super strong, but should only be used if the crack is dry. Polyurethane is used if water is present in the crack, or you can put a 70 pint dehumidifier, set at 45%RH, and run it for 3 or 4 days, to see if you can dry out the space. But, in general, expoxy for dry cracks, poly foam adhesive for wet cracks.

FWIW, I called this company today, and they recommended their HydroStop product for my vertical wall hairline cracks, and a sump pump due to floor crack intrusiin/seepage. As a novice, I appreciated their honesty. And, I've spent 3 hours reading up on sump pumps, and he's right.

@rondail5675 3 месяца назад

@@joeprager9961 I just completed 2 7ft cracks in my basement wall. I used the HydroStop-300 which worked fine. One crack was very thin all the way up. Had plenty of the sealant. The other crack had spots with 1/8". I completed but I wish I had a little more sealant. I bought one kit from Applied Technologies with free shipping. The second I had to get from Amazon for free shipping.

@gary24752 10 месяцев назад

How come you lift the paint on the crack for this demonstration. I thought it was supposed to be removed in order for the epoxy dam to adhere. How do you keep the epoxy from oozing out on the outside of the wall?

@mauacom33 Год назад

Hey brother how long did it take you to do that repair. Thank you, nice Content my friend.

@greekmaster1001 2 года назад

What if the crack shows on both sides of the foundation wall Do you completely seal one side and use ports on the other side?

@aaronkuertz6012 2 года назад

That is correct. You will need extra Poxy Paste for that.

No.

@stephencannon3140 4 года назад

Will this product and procedure be the same and with same effectiveness for filling/sealing foundation cracks on concrete slab? Is this sealer waterproof or is that another video?

@aaronkuertz6012 4 года назад

If you are doing a slab such as a basement floor, or a slab that has sand or gravel under it, this repair will not work because the epoxy will leak out of the crack and into the underlying substrate.

@jon1388 7 лет назад

is it recommended to keep the epoxy and ports on the wall after the repair? I would like to paint the wall after this is done.

Also wondering best way to remove the ports

@MarineCorpsSergeantTollens 5 лет назад

@@jake024d applied Tech says you can cut or chisel them off. I would use a cutting wheel and cut off as close to the wall possible.

@Smokey420Greenleaf 3 года назад

the video says very clearly at the end that they can be removed and the surface patch can be ground away after the injection cures. tap the ports with a hammer and they should just pop right out.

@Riareos 11 месяцев назад

Question is, what if the crack is in a corner?

@aaronkuertz6012 10 месяцев назад

The kit includes inside corner ports designed for that

@jobinmathew2930 7 лет назад

We should start this epoxy injection from bottom to top or from top to bottom...?

@1984cButch 6 лет назад

Bottom to top. Allowing the bottom of the crack to fill first and work your way up.

Brick wall can use this technique?

@Smokey420Greenleaf 3 года назад

no, tuck-pointing fixes cracks in brick, block and stone walls. this is for concrete only. in order to use this on a brick or block wall you would need about 10 times as much as normal because bricks and blocks have cavities in them where this stuff will just pool and go to waste. an $8 bag of mortar is quite a bit better than several of these kits at $150+ each.

@MarineCorpsSergeantTollens 5 лет назад

When you (they) speak of repairing cracks at Temperatures of 40 degrees or above. Do you mean indoor temp or outdoor temp ? I am hoping to receive a response in a timely manner,

how far does one kit go? how long of a crack will it fill? floor to ceiling?

@billwhelan7544 6 лет назад

would this work for a cinder block wall?

@MarineCorpsSergeantTollens 5 лет назад

Yes it does, this product or similar product was shown on the DIY Channel TV Show ( Holmes helps Holmes ) during The Christmas-New Year Holiday of 2018.

@Smokey420Greenleaf 3 года назад

NO. DO NOT USE THIS ON A CINDERBLOCK OR BRICK WALL. tuck-pointing is how you fix cracks and leaks in brick/block construction, this product is made specifically for concrete. cinderblock and brick both have cavities that will eat up about 50 times as much of this product as should be required to do the job. yes the manufacturer says it will work on brick and block, and it will in theory but an $8 bag of mortar is way better than several $150 10 foot kits. by the way, i am a mason with over 25 years experience, not your average do it yourselfer that thinks they know everything after a single 2 hour weekend project.

@amersyarifudin99 7 лет назад

what difference pu injection and epoxy injection

@LuisLarreaJr 3 года назад

From other vids, poly is just foam so it does the job but doesn't add strength. Epoxy on the other hand is stronger than the concrete and can be coupled with carbon strips leaving it stronger than before.

If you don't make large enough hole to epoxy liquid to go in, then it will not work. It cost me $4000 to hire contractor to fix the crack from outside, because I did not create the hole at all, when I tried with Crack Repair Kit, the liquid did not go in or did not go enough.

lol i always feel sick when i see people saying they spent that much money on such a small repair. i just tuck-pointed an entire basement for $1400

Should have watched other videos. You can pour water into the holes, top to bottom and if you see water, then it should do the job.

@@micheal74rich Thanks for the reply. I've now realized that I need to decide b/w poly or epoxy. I wonder if what you needed was poly since it's meant for non structural cracks, aka small cracks. Personally, I think you could have bought a long drill bit and still tried the epoxy fix. I'm assuming you never made it to the 2nd hole?
