FlexiSpan is a breakthrough crack repair method, which eliminates messy, unreliable epoxy or urethane injections. It is revolutionary, permanent and it works every time! The crack is sealed with a special flexible sealant on the surface of the crack from top to bottom. (see below) This bead will slow and in many cases stop the flow of water through the crack.
Its important to remember that the FlexiSpan System is not draining much water at all, since it incorporates a seal first! If it ever allows any water through the first seal, it would only be less then 5% of the original seepage. The drainage component is an innovative second line of defense to handle this minor seepage, if it ever occurs. This is what makes FlexiSpan a special repair with completely predictable results - Permanently Dry Every time!
In some cases, your installer may elect to inject the crack with polyurethane resin or epoxy and to apply the FlexiSpan System over the crack. Depending on the situation this may have advantages. It is usually unnecessary, as FlexiSpan is a crack repair system on its own and is the most reliable method available. |
