Choosing between foundation piering and crack injection involves weighing long-term structural stabilization against localized sealing. As family-owned and operated since 1996, we provide both services, but their costs reflect very different scopes of work.
Crack Injection
Epoxy Injection / Crack Repair is a more economical, non-structural solution. It is designed to seal active or dormant cracks to prevent moisture entry, but it does not lift or stabilize a foundation that is actively settling. Because this method requires less labor and no heavy equipment, it costs significantly less. However, if the foundation is still moving, a simple injection may be a false economy, as the crack will likely reopen.
Foundation Piering
Helical Piers and other structural piering methods cost more because they address the root cause of settlement. This process involves:
2026 Cost Overview
For moderate repairs in Littleton—such as crack sealing, Polyurethane Foam Lifting, or concrete replacement—estimates typically fall between $2,500 and $7,500. Larger structural projects involving piers or Tiebacks for bowed walls will exceed this range due to the depth of soil penetration and materials required.
Because expansive clay soils in the Front Range cause unique settlement patterns, we recommend an on-site inspection for a custom quote. Catching a hairline crack early often allows for a simpler injection repair, preventing the need for more extensive and costly stabilization later.
