    Sika makes a great line of concrete products. I repaired a leaking foundation crack 9 years ago. Still holding up to the Canadian weather after all these years.

    I had a spalled section in my garage floor caused by rebar that was close to the surface - I mixed up some thin-set that I had left over from some tile work, and filled the hole with it. 3 years later, still in place and very solid.

    I've tried mortar mix. I've tried sand mix. I've even sifted gravel out of high strength concrete. If it's on a fault line it will not stay. The only solution is to saw the damaged area out. Then drill a few holes in the sides kinda shallow. Stuff in some chicken wire. Now repatch it. It'll stay this time. Had to do that a few places at my house before it was permanent & didn't chip out.

    I see maintenance guys filling in holes on the sides of warehouse concrete slabs. But, with the forklifts going the slabs move slightly with the weight so they keep having to do it because the movement breaks the patches.

    Once the rot and salt is in the concrete, it's over. Patch it a hundred times , the rot will spread untill the cement is back to power and stone.

    My garage foundation has a crack which is allowing ground water to push up and into my garage. What’s the best way to fix this?

    • @thatontariofarmer
      @thatontariofarmer 4 года назад +1

      Hydraulic cement, that's what you use to stop water leaks. However it could be a larger issue of improper drainage on your property

    • @FZR650
      @FZR650 4 года назад

      ThatOntarioFarmer thanks for the info.
      I’m also will be adding a French drain to the two accessible sides which is not capped over with cement.
      I forgot to mention, this is a detached garage from the house with a down slope that is allowing water to flow from the back of the garage then around toward the house. I have lots of work to do!
