    Quick Answer

    In Toronto and the GTA, professional crack injection typically costs $750–$1,500 per crack at our current published rates — polyurethane leak-sealing runs $750–$1,000, structural epoxy $850–$1,500, and tie-rod hole sealing $75–$150 per hole, depending on crack length and access. Every repair includes a written quote before work starts and a transferable lifetime warranty.

    Key Takeaways

    • Injection is priced per crack, not per hour — you know the number before anyone starts.
    • The big price levers: crack length, epoxy vs. polyurethane, access (finished vs. unfinished basement).
    • Injection costs roughly a tenth of exterior excavation for the same leaking crack.
    • Toronto, Peel and Halton subsidy programs may offset eligible flood-protection work.

    What the per-crack price buys: full-depth injection through ports set from inside — not a surface patch.

    What Drives the Price Up or Down

    1

    Crack length & wall thickness

    Materials and injection time scale with the crack, floor to top; a 10-foot wall costs more than a 4-foot pony wall.

    2

    Material

    Polyurethane leak-sealing is the economical standard; structural epoxy costs more and cures slower.

    3

    Access

    An exposed wall is the base case. Finished basements need drywall opened — smallest section possible.

    4

    Number of cracks

    The first crack carries the visit cost; additional cracks on the same visit price lower.

    5

    Complications

    Old failed patches must be drilled out; very wide cracks need staged fills; high water flow needs flow-control resins.

    What does NOT change the price

    The season, whether the crack is actively leaking, or how urgently you book. No storm surcharges.

    Injection vs. the alternatives
    Approach Typical GTA cost Stops the leak? Notes
    DIY kit ~$60–$150 Rarely, briefly Face-fill only; complicates real repair later
    Hydraulic cement / caulk patch Under $100 in materials Temporarily Rigid patch on a moving wall — fails in seasons
    Professional injection $750–$1,500 per crack Yes — full depth One visit, warrantied, no digging
    Exterior excavation + membrane $5,000–$20,000+ Yes Right answer for some walls (block/stone) — overkill for a single poured-wall crack

    Subsidies That May Apply

    The City of Toronto Basement Flooding Protection Subsidy, and equivalent Peel and Halton programs, subsidize eligible flood-protection work for homeowners. Program rules, eligible items and amounts change — and not every crack repair qualifies — so we review current program fit at your assessment rather than promising a rebate on a webpage. As an eligible contractor for these programs, we’ll walk you through the current rules honestly, including when your repair doesn’t qualify.

    How the Quote Works

    • 1. Book a free assessment — phone, form, or send photos; most of the GTA is booked within days.
    • 2. We inspect and measure — crack length, moisture, access, and foundation type.
    • 3. You get a written, per-crack, all-in price on the spot — fixed, not an hourly estimate.
    • 4. Approve, and most repairs happen the same visit or within days.
    • 5. Warranty certificate issued on completion — transferable if you sell.

    Why quotes differ so much between companies

    Different materials (kit-grade vs. commercial resins), different depths of repair (face-fill vs. full-depth), different warranties, and different overheads. A low quote that patches the visible face costs more over five years than a full-depth injection done once. When you compare quotes, compare what’s included — the resin grade, the depth of fill, and the warranty behind it — not just the number at the bottom.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does it cost to inject a foundation crack in Toronto?
    Most single-crack polyurethane injections in the GTA fall in the $750–$1,000 range at our current published rates; structural epoxy runs $850–$1,500. Length, access, and material set the exact figure — which you get in writing, free, before any work starts.
    Why do quotes vary so much between companies?
    Different materials (kit-grade vs. commercial resins), different depths of repair (face-fill vs. full-depth), different warranties, and different overheads. A low quote that patches the visible face costs more over five years than a full-depth injection done once. Compare what’s included, not just the number.
    Is crack injection cheaper than excavation?
    Substantially. Exterior excavation with membrane work runs $5,000–$20,000+ for a typical home, while a single-crack injection runs $750–$1,500 — roughly a tenth of the cost. Exterior work is the right call for some foundations, but for a leaking crack in a poured wall, interior injection delivers the permanent seal without the digging.
    Do multiple cracks cost less per crack?
    Yes. The first crack carries the visit and setup; additional cracks injected the same day are priced lower each, with volume pricing for 3+ cracks. If your inspection finds three cracks, fixing them together is meaningfully cheaper than three separate calls.
    Does insurance cover crack injection?
    Standard home policies generally treat foundation cracks as maintenance, not an insured peril — though resulting water damage sometimes is, depending on your coverage. We document the repair thoroughly so you have what you need for any claim or future sale. Check specifics with your insurer.
    Will a subsidy cover part of my repair?
    Possibly. Toronto, Peel and Halton operate basement-flooding subsidy programs with specific eligible items and contractor requirements. We’ll tell you at the assessment whether your situation fits the current rules — honestly, including when it doesn’t.
    Is the calculator price a final quote?
    No — it’s a planning estimate built from our published per-crack ranges. The exact price depends on crack length, access and conditions, and is confirmed in writing at your free assessment (or often from photos). The written quote is the number that counts.
    When is injection NOT worth paying for?
    When the crack isn’t the problem: cove-joint seepage, window-well flooding, or grading issues need different fixes. And when the wall is failing structurally — bowing, horizontal cracking — injection alone is money half-spent. Both get flagged, not injected, at our assessment.
