Flooding in my basement

From all the rain I've had water coming in from between a wall and floor. I estimate from emptying my wet vac that the flow was 8 gal per hour. I had to stay up all night to vacuum and prevent a total flood on my family room. To fix, I opened the crack up with a masonry drill and put wet vac nozzle at end of crack to remove active water flow. I then mixed Drylok into a semi-firm consistency and wedged it into and along the crack. Getting the drylok to be the right consistency was key. I wore lat...

Drylok works well

Bird bath was cracked and not holding water due to severe freeze in TN . Paint department employee thought this product would let me fix the problem. Drylok was easy to use and indeed did fix the problem. In fact we just went through a minor freeze of 20 degrees, not zero as before) and even after all the water froze the repair held up. Good product.

Works great!

Worked great to stop a leak at corner of basement wall/floor. Easy to use. I finished patched area with Drylock masonry sealer for added protection.

Have a plan and all will go well

Works as described. Before mixing with water you need to know exactly what you are going to do with that portion of the mixture. Multiple small batches is much better than one large amount that will harden before you are finished.

Good and fast setting.

Works as described.

leak sealer

stopped my basement leak.Work fast because it dries real quick.Only mix small batches at a time

Effective but hardens TOO quickly

As others have mentioned, it hardens WAY too quickly. If it's your first time, it will very likely harden on you before you can finish the job. I do think the better way to use it is to just do very small batches but that also means mixing it up multiple times (more time). For small holes, I'll use it. For larger jobs, I'd probably look for another product due to the hassle.

Works well

Fast drying and hardens within 2 minutes. Great for small areas

Works exactly as directed on the label.

It worked exactly as specified on the label description. If you follow their directions, you can't go wrong. I used this to patch a hole in the back of an old chimney to a residential home. (vertical patch, near the ground). There were already slabs of concrete inserted to help fill in voids. I used expanding foam (the simple cans you can buy at home improvement stores) to fill in-between the slabs. The next day, I made sure to trim excessive foam away and make a recessed area. I then mixed the...
