Why Your ‘Quick Fix’ Might Be Costing You More

Why Your ‘Quick Fix’ Might Be Costing You More

Aug 22, 2025

The Callback Nightmare

You used epoxy grout to fix a basement crack. It worked—for six months. Now, the leak is back, the client is furious, and you’re eating the cost of a redo.

Why Epoxy Fails (And Polyurethane Wins)

Factor Epoxy Grout Polyurethane Grout
Cure Time 4+ hours 20-90 seconds
Flexibility Brittle (cracks under movement) 300% elongation
Water Resistance Fails if damp Bonds underwater
Lifespan 2-5 years 10+ years

Case Study: The Parking Garage That Saved $120K

A mall’s underground garage had leaks after every thaw cycle. Epoxy injections failed twice. After switching to polyurethane grout:
✔ All leaks sealed in one application
✔ No cracks reappeared after 4 years
✔ Saved $120K in repeat repairs

Pro Tip: For active leaks, use hydrophobic grout that expands upon water contact.
