Foundation Cracks and Epoxy
Hey dear BP friends,
I have a question regarding epoxying basement wall.
A property I am looking into right now has been inspected by an engineer since there was a concern on the foundation.
The report came back saying there were some settling (due to dry weather), which cracked the basement wall. The engineer recommended that no repair is needed at this point yet, and s/he recommends epoxying the cracks, which they said would be enough. According to the seller's disclosure, there is no water leakage.
I don't know the size of the cracks, but I am supposed to tour the property this Friday.
With that said, how much does epoxy usually cost? I know it depends on the number of and the size of the cracks, but since it is unknown yet, any wild guestimate will be great!
I am also looking into epoxying myself, so any recommended products info would also be great if you have any!
Thanks for your help!
