Basement Leak Nightmare? How We Stopped an Active Crack Leak in Framingham





At Attack A Crack, we often get calls from homeowners who suspect a foundation crack might be letting in water. That was exactly the case with a recent job in Framingham, MA. The homeowner had noticed moisture around a crack in their basement wall, but by the time we arrived, melting snow had turned the small concern into a full-blown issue—water was actively pouring through the crack.
This is a common scenario that makes homeowners worry. They often ask, Can you still repair the crack when there’s water running through it? The answer is yes! Our polyurethane injection process works even in wet conditions. In fact, the movement of water helps ensure the material fully penetrates the crack, sealing it from the inside out for a long-lasting fix.
For this repair, we injected a high-quality polyurethane resin that expands upon contact with moisture, filling every crevice and creating a watertight seal. Unlike temporary surface patches, this method permanently stops water intrusion at the source. By the time we wrapped up, the transformation was dramatic—what started as a leaky, flooded mess was now a dry, secure basement.
The homeowner was thrilled with the results and had this to say about the experience:
"The job looks great! Mike was outstanding—on time, professional, courteous, and respectful. I am very happy to have used your company; it was the right choice and a very positive experience. My highest recommendation. It was also my interactions with Matt that influenced my decision—he was appropriately persistent in messaging but not annoying, and matter-of-fact in making the case for his business. Very effective."
