Repairing Leaky Floor Cracks in Texas & Oklahoma

<a id="Leak Repair">

Stop water from flooding through leaking cracks in your floor

One of the more perplexing issues that homeowners face with their wet basement is the challenge of stopping water from rising up through their basement floor.

Fortunately, basement floor cracks can be easily and effectively repaired as part of a proper perimeter drainage system.

Steps to waterproof a leaky floor crack

When it's necessary to fix a leaking basement floor crack, we at Legacy Supportworks usually suggest installing a lateral line drainage system to collect water from the crack and redirect it to your sump pump system. When installing this kind of floor drainage system, we follow these three steps:

  • 1. Install a perimeter drainage system

    We strongly recommend that your first step is to install a perimeter drainage system. This will often intercept the water before it reaches your floor crack, ensuring a dry basement and eliminating the problem.

  • 2. Install a drainage channel, starting at the crack

    When direct drainage is necessary, we can remove a section of the basement floor and run a line of PVC underneath. This PVC line will lead to your sump pump. When pitched properly, any water entering the drain will be directed naturally to the sump pump.

  • 3. Restore the floor

    After the drain has been installed, your waterproofer will backfill with stone and place fresh concrete over the area for a clean, professional look. Allow three days for this concrete to cure properly before walking on it or reapplying weight to the surface.

Are lateral drains always needed?

In most cases, a lateral drain will not be recommended for waterproofing your basement cracks in the floor. Most water that collects under the floor will be taken care of by the sump pump or perimeter drainage system before the water can push up through the floor cracks.

In the case of serious flooding through cracks, however, creating a lateral line to your drainage system is an easy, cost-effective way to help keep your basement dry.

We waterproof basements in Texas & Oklahoma, including Amarillo, Lubbock, Abilene, Midland, San Angelo, Odessa, Pampa, Plainview, Hereford, Dumas and many areas nearby.

Mold & Mildew Alert!

Water can also rise directly through the porous concrete of your floor slab.

Carpet or wood installed on the concrete will trap this moisture underneath, resulting in mold and rot. Be sure to seal your basement floor before installing carpet or organic materials.

Don't just take our word for it

See what our customers have to say about our work.

Legacy SupportWorks was referred to me by Bernie Sanders with Sir Speedy. When doors began to not close properly and there were noticeable gaps between the floor and molding, we knew it was time to get some foundation work done on our home. We shopped around and were pleased with the value and responsiveness of Legacy Support Works. I felt comfortable with them in my home, they delivered what they promised when they promised and left my home clean. From Tessa who made the initial contact, to the gentleman putting my carpet back in place, customer service was outstanding.

Mike P. from Amarillo, TX hired Legacy Supportworks to help lift and level a sinking kitchen floor with PolyLevel™.In this video he talks about the experience with the company. “We were really impressed that he (the owner) was willing to get in there and work just like a laborer!”

When Karen H. saw some cracks on her wall, she knew something was wrong. She first called a local contractor and they told her that the cracks were being caused by the trees in her backyard. Karen wasn’t convinced by their explanation so she decided to get a second opinion and called Legacy Supportworks. In this video she talks about the experience she had with the company and why she was confident to hire them as the right company for the job. “What we got from Legacy Supportworks was not just a company that will be there for us through the whole process, but be there for us through any other problems that we have in the future”, says Karen.

Before & after photos

Check out before and after photos from some of our completed projects.

  • Stabilizing a Crawlspace in Pampa, TX

    This home had crawlspace beams that were cracking and lacked stabilization. 

    Years of shimming had only been a “band-aid” fix and this customer was looking for a permanent solution.

    Our crew installed steel beams and steel smartjacks on engineered fill.

    The result was a permanently stabilized floor!

  • Concrete Repair in Spearman, TX

    A customer reached out after seeing a video of concrete lifting using injection methods and wondered if it could work for their front porch. Their home, built in 1968, features a large concrete porch with a section that originally had a planter between it and the house. At some point, the planter was covered with concrete, which has since sunk about 4 inches. Both sections measure approximately 8×12. While the porch itself was fine, they wanted a solution to lift the concrete over the old planter rather than starting from scratch. Legacy inspected the situation and provided a tailored solution to restore their home.

  • Foundation Repair in Guymon, Oklahoma

    Just four years after adding a first porch for relaxation, a homeowner in Guymon, OK found himself facing a disheartening problem – his beloved porch had settled a shocking 2 feet into the ground, taking his dreams of peaceful rocking chair afternoons with it. As depicted in our before photo, this alarming sinkage rendered the space unusable. To lift and stabilize the sinking structure, we deployed our trusted Push Pier system, meticulously engineered to provide strength and elevation from deep below the surface. The transformation is apparent in the after photo, where the porch now stands level and secure, promising many future years of comfort and stability. At Legacy Supportworks, reviving your home’s foundation to ensure lifelong enjoyment and safety is not just our mission—it’s our commitment to you.
