After hearing that i seriously considered just gluing a piece of plywood over it and calling it a day.
Hole in concrete basement wall.
Some of the holes have water dripping through them.
Patching such holes is a necessary part of keeping your concrete foundation wall in good repair.
A thicker application may require more time to dry.
Expand the drill hole to accommodate the anchor.
If you are using concrete crack filler protect it from rain and water for a minimum of 24 hours.
Insert the concrete screw into the anchor and drive into the wall until secure.
The hole should be slightly smaller than the maximum width of the anchor.
Viewing the wall in this method will help see the others as they may appear as a small extrusion or irregularity in the surface of the concrete.
Remove any concrete dust then press the anchor into the hole until it is flush with the surface.
A water leak led me to remove drywall in my basement and to my surprise i discovered rows of holes 5 8 inch diameter in my concrete walls.
Observe the entire wall from a distance of five feet 0 13 meters away after the location of the first tie rod hole leak.
The hole cord maybe up to 5 inches 12 7 cm or more thus leaving a void between the outside of the sewer pipe and the concrete.
The time it takes for concrete filler to dry will depend on the product being used and how big and deep is the crack is.
Because basement floors are poured after the walls are poured the concrete where they meet doesn t always bond completely and this is a common spot for a crack to appear when the house settles.
We repaired a foundation wall which had an 8 ft long crack that leaked water into the basement during periods of heavy rainfall.
If necessary tap in lightly with a hammer.
The guys at home depot had a lot of fun lamenting the fact that the hole existed to begin with and then suggested that i build a mold on one side of the wall and fill it in with a pour of concrete.
Holes in concrete walls are more likely the result of drilling into the wall to secure shelving or to hang other items on the wall.
Use an epoxy injection system for basement wall crack repair.
To create a smooth surface when these items are removed the hole must be filled.
Prior to backfilling the foundation on the outside these voids are typically filled with hydraulic cement.
