SANI-TRED's Crack Filling Calculator: Precision and Efficiency for Crack Repairs

Cracks in concrete, asphalt, and other surfaces can lead to significant damage if not addressed promptly and effectively. Proper crack filling is essential to maintain the structural integrity and aesthetics of various surfaces. SANI-TRED's Crack Filling Calculator is a powerful tool designed to help you determine the precise amount of product needed for your crack repair projects. This ensures efficient use of materials and optimal results. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the benefits of using the Crack Filling Calculator, how to use it, and the advantages of SANI-TRED products.

Why Accurate Crack Filling is Important

Cracks can develop in a variety of surfaces due to factors such as temperature changes, heavy traffic, and natural wear and tear. If left untreated, these cracks can expand, allowing water and debris to infiltrate and cause further damage. Proper crack filling helps to:

Prevent Further Damage: By sealing cracks, you prevent water, dirt, and other debris from entering and causing further deterioration.
Maintain Aesthetics: Filled cracks improve the appearance of surfaces, maintaining their clean and professional look.
Extend Lifespan: Effective crack filling extends the lifespan of surfaces by preventing the escalation of minor cracks into major issues.
Enhance Safety: Filled cracks reduce tripping hazards and ensure safer walking and driving conditions.

Step-by-Step Guide to Crack Filling with SANI-TRED Products

1. Surface Preparation

Proper surface preparation is crucial for achieving the best results. Begin by cleaning the cracks to remove any dirt, debris, or loose material. Use a wire brush or compressed air to ensure the cracks are thoroughly clean and dry.

2. Priming the Cracks

Apply a coat of PermaFlex to prime the cracks. PermaFlex penetrates deeply into the substrate, creating a strong bond that forms the foundation for the subsequent layers. The primer should be applied according to the product instructions and allowed to cure.

3. Mixing the Crack Filling Compound

Prepare the crack filling compound by mixing Liquid Rubber Base (LRB) with Thickening Activator (TAV). This mixture creates a thick, flexible compound that can be easily applied to the cracks. Follow the product instructions for the correct mixing ratio.

4. Applying the Crack Filling Compound

Using a caulk gun or trowel, apply the mixed LRB/TAV compound into the cracks. Ensure the compound is evenly distributed and fills the cracks completely. For deeper cracks, multiple layers may be needed, allowing each layer to cure before applying the next.

5. Smoothing and Finishing

Once the cracks are filled, use a putty knife or trowel to smooth the surface of the compound. This ensures a clean, even finish that blends seamlessly with the surrounding surface. Allow the compound to cure fully before subjecting it to traffic or additional coatings.

Maintenance and Longevity

Maintaining your crack repairs is essential for ensuring their longevity and effectiveness. Here are some tips for maintaining filled cracks:

Regular Inspections: Periodically check the filled cracks for any signs of damage or wear. Address issues promptly to prevent further deterioration.
Cleaning: Keep the repaired surfaces clean to avoid the buildup of dirt and debris that can compromise the integrity of the repairs.
Follow Manufacturer’s Guidelines: Adhere to the maintenance recommendations provided by SANI-TRED to ensure the repairs remain effective and durable.

Great experience with sanitred products and customer service. We used the products 14years ago to fix our cracked and leaking concrete pool. This year we resurfaced our pool with pebble. The previous cracks that were patched remain intact. We applied permaflex with a sand broadcast to those areas in prep for the bond coat. Sanitred employees walked us through the process to get our pool ready. Order was shipped promptly and secured well in packaging.

Where to begin....we would always get a bit of water on the basement floor from heavy rains so we stored eveything on tables. In 2009 we experienced MAJOR flooding where the culverts that carry the river next to our home where blocked with a beaver dam (we live in Beaver Bank, NS Canada) and the river eventually surrounded our home. The hydrostatic pressure filled our basement through the joint at the floor & footings and also a few floor cracks, the pressure was also strong enough that the water actually came in through the floor drains destroying the check balls that were supposed to stop the water!After speaking with local contractors on how to fix the problem, they all decided that their suggestions probably would not work due to the fact that the water outside and inside our basement was at the same level....there is no way digging up around the outside and putting new big O ...or sump pumps...or bubble wrap on the outside would ever work SO I started the search online and eventually came across Sani-Tred and testimonies from people who were able to completely waterproof their basement and save their homes AND it was a DIY product.Although the products are not cheap, my wife and I decided to give them a try and to this day almost 14 years later we have not had a drop of water in our basement since we installed the Sani-tred. The cost ($2,500.00) to completely water proof and Radon proof our basement was at about 25% of the cheapest contractor price to put in their water proofing system that would NOT WORK! "....and also their system would do nothing for the Radon"Since that time we have helped 5 other friend's and family water proof their homes as well and again "not a drop of water" in any of them!One of those homes was our sons who also lived in the highest Radon area in Lower Sackville...now he and family are safe from flooding and from Radon Gas!!!!!Thank you Sani-Tred.....Canada loves your products!!!!

The Sanitred Team is very helpful and dedicated to their customer's success. They have a lot of experience and always willing to help!

Bo Dingledine

The customer service is top notch as well as the products. Helped me pick out exactly what I needed for my specific situation. Would definitely recommend

NineInch Nails

Great materials. Works as advertised.

aapc. office

Everyone associated with incredible products is knowledgeable and professional when you call. The products are far superior to the box store products in quality and performance. 100% recommend any contractor or individual purchase products from them. A shout out to Mrs. Jeanine for always taking care of our orders and following through with her insight and professionalism.

Cel Dymecki

We purchased Sani-Tred waterproofing for our garage. We live on the side of a mountain and our garage is on the downhill side where winter snow thaw run-off water and summer rains (monsoons) would cause water seepage to actual flooding of the garage through the garage stem wall. We followed the two step process for filling holes/seams as well as sealing the concrete wall to floor seam. THE SEALING PROCESS WORKED FLAWLESSLY! The garage has not had any leakage since we sealed our garage over three years ago. We highly recommend Sani-Tred products!

Charles Pinner

Excellent product

Charles Edwards

I've used these products on several houses. If you follow the instructions and apply correctly, it will stop 100% of water infiltration.My only complaint is that packaging was change up and the last time I used the products it took 3 shipments before I got it without damage. Hopefully they have gone back to using the spray foam to secure product in the boxes!!Will be the company I call when in need of water proofing!!

Brian Hodge

I have used the product on two applications. The first time I used it to fill small pin holes on a livestock trailer and then painted/waterproofed the entire trailer. The second time was a repair and waterproofing of an evaporative cooler. Both times the product worked great. This product is well worth the money.

Brent Thomas

I used your product to coat my DE pool filter that had developed some pin hole leaks. Worked great for two years, and bought me some time to save for a new filter ($3500). Really good stuff, and easy to use.

Brandon Stearns

This stuff works great, I tried many other ways to keep water out, this is the only one that worked.

brandon rickman

This product was amazing. While having a high quality for great results, it was very user friendly.

Tammy Kettlehut

We used their products over 30 years ago to waterproof our basement and it’s still doing its job. I wouldn’t hesitate to use it again.

Samuel Cruz

I use tye product 2 years ago and so far no leaks, no moisture. What else to add :)

Danny Payne

Built some pretty custom projects and their service and product allowed me to get it done and done well.

Lets GoBrandon

After getting ridiculous estimates to have our deck (which serves as the ‘roof’ for part of our finished basement) sealed with a walkable and nice-looking surface… we found Sani Tred online and went with it! It is a VERY superior product to ANYTHING found in big box stores or even contractors- who want to lay a rubber sheet which they call a membrane to go under something like tongue-and-groove, etc…. We knocked this project out at our own pace over a weekend!Adding the non-slip ‘crumbles’ to our liking finished the resort-style look! That was more than a decade ago, and after a quick spraywash with a few drops of detergent, it is like it was done yesterday! You can even RECOAT it WITHOUT prepping the surface other than a washing- adding layers, changing the color, adding-or covering over more non-slip ‘crumbles’ in any pattern to your liking!GET THIS!!!

Since we used this product no leaks or seepage. Wonderful peace of mind

Advanced Epoxy

We have been installing Sani-Tred Products for (10 plus years) with nothing but guaranteed results and even better…the customer service is solid! Whether that’s figuring out the best application for the job, how much material is needed, or simply just a quick question to be answered. Either way you will be taken care of…

Brian Longman

I had a horrible water problem at my previous house. The water table was 1.5 feet above my basement finished floor and the sump pump ran constantly. This stuff was crazy effective. Just follow the instructions. I’m not one to endorse products, but this stuff was the real deal.

John Artysiewicz

I've used Sanitred for many years now and have found it to be a consistantly great product .

Dennis Olsen

I’ve used the Sanitred products for the last 7 years. We use them on our outside projects. We use them on the interior projects when there’s a high % of vapor in the concrete. We have used them on commercial and residential projects where water literally comes up through the floor after it rains. And we’ve even applied it in temperatures of 18 degrees with an 18 mph wind chill and it cures.What’s not to love about the Sanitred products and systems. They simply work. Got ugly concrete? Sanitred has an answer. If I was to only have one “tool” In the toolbox for fixing ugly concrete or to work with, it would be the Sanitred products. The most versatile, durable, easy to use and highly effective systems out there.No matter what your issue is, if you look at the Sanitred products… I’m almost certain you will find the answer is here.Can you tell I’m a a real fan? That’s bc we have used them in so many different applications and solved so many of our customers issues with this one line of products.

Joe Schenck

I’ve been using their products for 10 years now, I started with just using PermaFlex as a vapor barrier, but their other products and their customer service have won me over on their system. I highly recommend their products and their team, awesome products sold by great people.

Gina Place

Love Sani-tred products and the entire team! Everyone is so informative, friendly and product is easy to work with! Most definitely will be coming back!!

John B

I could not be happier with the products from Sani-Tred, the help I received from Jeanine, and the contractor (Enrico Bozeman @ TDS) Jeanine put me in touch with to re-seal my backyard water feature. The advice and support about the Sani-Tred products was top notch. The guidance I received about using pool paint to product the product from chlorine and where to buy it was super helpful (Olympic Zeron paint and their custom paint service @ Kelley Tech was fantastic!). Most importantly, the job done by Enrico and his team was AWESOME!! They were super friendly, meticulous and hardworking! I am super glad I found Sani-Tred on my internet search!! I have included before, in-process and after photos to help you out.

Katie Griswold

We used sanitred to waterproof our full unfinished basement so we could finish it. We live in TN, and always had problems with water intrusion due to cracks in the concrete floor and we had water pouring in from where the pipes came into the house every time it rained, the only time our basement was not wet was mainly during the summer months and sometimes when it was too cold to rain. Anyways just wanted to give you a picture of what we were dealing with. We had companies look and they quoted us over 20 K to waterproof which mainly Included a sump pump. We spent about $6000 on sanitred and finished coating our entire basement in about two weeks. There is a pic I posted of the pipe coming into our house in our wood shop that we dry walled around.We did it ourselves with a toddler in tow, and it went great. That was three years ago, we have since not had any water or failure of the sanitred system. We opened up our basement to the main floor without concern for mold or water problems. Our son is 5 now and I can honestly say it was good to know he will be exposed to less radon as well.Let the pictures speak for themselves! (Excuse the construction zone, drywall next step). This product is awesome!!

Karen Buckner

Great product - fast delivery which is what we needed.For sure would recommend this company and will purchase from them again.

Bella Dunifon

Fabulous products & excellent customer service support! Thank you Santitred! Shout out to Donna, Jeanine & Randy! Your team is remarkably brilliant!

Jeremy Lezin

LRB plus TAV is an amazing combination. My friends and I use this combo on Alaskan Bush Wheels, which are over-sized tundra tires used on bush planes. The compound of these tires is very soft and they get worn out very quickly on asphalt. The replacement cost is exorbitant (almost $4,000 for a set of two), so discovering this compound was critical for the type of flying we do. It extends the life of the tires and when they start to run down . . . we coat them again. Thanks Sani-Tred for offering this product to the market. It works far better than anything else that we've experimented with.

Nikk Moreno

Ordered the concrete patch and it patched up our production room floor perfectly, unlike my divorce lawyers ability to patch up my broken marriage. If only I could use this product to patch up things with my wife Deborah. Deborah, baby, please don't take the kids.Thanks Sani-Tred!

Jeff Stall

Great products and excellent customer service.

eric Beach

Excellent experience. Easy to use online shopping, I got my product within days! and Sanitreead has followed up with me both times I ordered with them. Bravo to their staff.

Anna Rasa Hendrickson

SaniTred is a very durable product. We use it on our large deck/ carport cover. First time we applied it was 2009. 23 years old. We have retouched it for cosmetic purposes since the deck is flat and stubborn dirt pockets/ deck rail paint splatter accumulates on a flat surface. In Southern California it really stands up to the sun. Definitely will continue to use this product.

Response from the owner: Thank you for sharing your feedback with us Anna! Glad everything worked out for your project.

Vladimir Navia

An excellent option for interior waterproofing applications, a very professional and kind staff; Jeanine is awesome, ask for her directly!!

Response from the owner: Thanks for the kind words glad you had a good experience.

David Zell

Great company to work with!

Response from the owner: Thanks for the review.

Susan Garabedian

Response from the owner: Thank you Susan!

bigchew2

Response from the owner: Appreciate your feedback and 5-star rating!

Catherine Susewitz

It was a very good experience from the start. Whenever we had a question we contacted the customer service number and Jeanine always answered and was so helpful. Being able to contact the company at any time and always have someone to help was great. She's a great representative of your company and product

Response from the owner: Thank you Catherine and please let us know how we can get that 4 star to a perfect 5?
