Fixing concrete block wall.
In this video i ll show you a very simple process that i like to use to fix holes between the blocks where the mortar is missing in my garage.
Hose the wall down or scrub it with a washcloth then use a metal file to smooth out any rough edges.
To repair small cracks or holes in cinder block walls you can use concrete.
Cracks between 1 8 and of an inch often result from house settling or concrete shrinking within a few months after construction and so.
We repaired a foundation wall which had an 8 ft long crack that leaked water into the basement during periods of heavy rainfall.
If the crack is wider than 1 8 inch it should be sealed.
A concrete block wall whether outdoors or otherwise can suffer damage due to weather flooding or accident.
To permanently patch the crack we used an epoxy injection system from polygem called the liquid concrete repair.
First clean any parts of the wall that you plan to repair so the cement or mortar adheres securely.
Readily available materials can fix some cracking in a block wall without having to tear it down and add new concrete follow the instructions below and take care of this damage before it can cause problems.
Where the crack runs through a brick or a concrete block use a brick chisel angled into the crack to widen and undercut the break.
The easiest fastest cheapest solution to repairing the cinder block was using poured concrete and then painting the entire wall to mask the patch.
