The 5-Minute Guide to Stopping Leaks Like a Pro

The Hidden Cost of ‘Waiting for the Experts’

A small leak in a condo’s foundation drips for weeks. Then—disaster. The crack widens, flooding the basement. Now you’re facing:
💸 $50k in mold remediation
😡 Lawsuits from angry residents
📉 A ruined reputation

Traditional repair? Too slow, too rigid, too expensive.

The DIY-Friendly (But Pro-Grade) Solution

Water-soluble PU grout lets anyone fix leaks fast. Here’s how:

Step 1: Find the Leak’s Source

• Follow water trails upward (most leaks start higher than the drip point)

Step 2: Prep the Crack

• Clean loose debris (a wire brush works)

• For hairline cracks, drill a small injection port

Step 3: Inject Like a Pro

• 45° angle ensures deep penetration

• Stop when grout resists (means the void is filled)

Step 4: Verify the Seal

• Water flow should stop within 2 minutes

• If not, reinject with fast-set formula

Real-World Win: The Apartment That Saved $120k
