Fix Cracked Concrete Floors with Crack Lock – The Carbon Fiber Solution

Cracks in concrete floors and concrete pads aren’t just unsightly—they’re a warning sign.

Our Services Are Trusted By

Whether it’s a hairline split in your basement floor, a jagged break in your driveway, or a sprawling fracture across your commercial concrete factory floor, these flaws can let water seep in, weaken the structure, and can further accelerate structural damage if left unaddressed. Traditional fixes like epoxy injections or concrete fillers might mask the problem for a bit, but they often crack again under further stress and movement. That’s why we’re bringing you Crack Lock, a cutting-edge carbon fiber solution that stitches concrete cracks shut for good—stronger, faster, and smarter than the old ways.

Why Cracked Concrete Floors Need Attention

Concrete is built to last, but it’s not immune to wear, movement, and cracking. Temperature swings cause it to expand and contract, heavy loads press it beyond its limits, and settling ground shifts it unevenly. The result? Cracks and openings that start small but grow fast—especially in high-traffic areas like warehouse floors or outdoor slabs exposed to freeze-thaw cycles. Left unchecked, a minor crack can turn into a major headache, threatening safety and stability. Crack Lock stops that cycle in its tracks, reinforcing your concrete with carbon fiber’s unbeatable strength.

What Is Crack Lock?

Developed by Rhino Carbon Fiber, Crack Lock is a next-level repair system designed to tackle cracks in concrete floors and pads head-on. It’s not a patch or a filler—it’s a carbon fiber stitch that bridges the crack, locking it tight with a material 10 times stronger than steel. Lightweight, non-corrosive, and quick to install, Crack Lock is the go-to fix for:

  • Residential concrete basement floors and garage slabs
  • Concrete driveways and outdoor patios
  • Factory and warehouse floors
  • Commercial concrete pads and pool decks
  • Any concrete surface—indoors or out—that’s cracking under pressure


Unlike temporary solutions, Crack Lock transfers stress away from the crack, helping to prevent it from reopening. It’s a fix that keeps your floors and pads solid, no matter the load or weather.

Why Choose Crack Lock for Concrete Crack Repair?

Crack Lock isn’t just another repair gimmick—it’s a structural upgrade. Here’s why it outshines traditional methods:

  • Extreme Durability: With a tensile strength of over 700,000 psi (way beyond steel’s 70,000 psi), it holds cracks together even under heavy use.
  • Fast Installation: Minimal cutting and no major demolition mean we’re in and out quicker, cutting labor costs.
  • Corrosion-Proof: Unlike steel rebar, which rusts over time, carbon fiber stays strong in wet or salty conditions.
  • Low-Impact Finish: Once installed, it sits flush—paint it, tile over it, or leave it as-is for a clean look.
  • Cost Savings: Fewer service calls and no repeat repairs make it a budget-friendly fix long-term.
  • Versatile Strength: It’s not just for looks—it redistributes tension, making your concrete tougher overall.

Epoxy might crack again in a year, and steel can corrode, but Crack Lock leverages carbon fiber’s proven track record in aerospace and construction to deliver a repair that lasts decades.

Where We Use Crack Lock

Here’s how Crack Lock saves the day across different settings:

  • Basement Floors: Stop the shifting of your concrete basement floor with a stitch that keeps cracks tight. If the surface is worn or uneven, you might also look into basement concrete floor installation to get a clean, solid finish that holds up over time.
  • Garage & Driveway Slabs: Heavy cars and harsh weather are no match—Crack Lock keeps your slabs smooth and safe.
  • Factory & Warehouse Floors: High-traffic industrial pads stay operational with repairs that handle forklifts and machinery loads.
  • Commercial Pads: From retail parking lots to office courtyards, reinforce concrete that sees constant foot and vehicle traffic.
  • Outdoor Spaces: Patios, pool decks, and sidewalks get a new lease on life, resisting cracks from sun, rain, or frost.

Crack Lock works on any concrete floor or pad, anywhere cracking occurs!

How Crack Lock Repairs Work

Our process is straightforward but precise, ensuring a rock-solid fix every time:
  1. Assess & Mark: We locate the crack and mark stitch points perpendicular to it.
  2. Cut the Slot: A thin slit (about 1/8-inch wide) is cut across the crack using a grinder with vacuum attachment.
  3. Drill Anchors: Small holes at each end of the slit lock the stitch in place.
  4. Epoxy Bond: High-strength, two-part epoxy fills the slot, curing in hours to a concrete-tough finish.
  5. Insert Crack Lock: The carbon fiber stitch slides in, bonding instantly to bridge the crack.
  6. Finish Up: Once cured, it’s ready to cover or paint—no maintenance, no fuss.

FAQs About Crack Lock Concrete Repair

Got questions? We’ve got answers:

  • How long does Crack Lock last? Forever—carbon fiber doesn’t degrade, and the epoxy bond is stronger than the concrete around it.
  • Can it handle heavy traffic? Absolutely. It’s designed for industrial floors with constant loads—your garage or warehouse is no sweat.
  • Is it DIY-friendly? Not quite—it needs Pro Tools and know-how for precision. That’s where we come in.
  • What cracks can it fix? Anything from hairline splits to 1-inch gaps, as long as the slab’s still structurally sound.

Going thru some old files for my rental property, I discovered a contract which Gavin had signed in Jan 2007 to repair a foundation leak in my basement. This leak had been 'fixed' multiple times by others using epoxy. Gavin explained that the only sure way to fix the leak once and for all, was to dig down to the foundation from the outside to seal the cracks, plus provide a waterproof barrier against the wall. The work was done excellently and came with a 15 year warranty. It has been 19 years and no leaks have occurred. If you want a basement leak fixed right the first time, then contact GJ MacRae Foundation Repair. Highly recommended.

Today Gavin MacRae did thorough inspection of 2 sump pumps & battery backups which he installed in 2018 - both systems still performing well. Prior to 2018 MacRae Foundation did extensive foundation/waterproofing for us - quality of workmanship excellent. Without hesitation, strongly recommend MacRae Foundation.

We had a difficult project requiring excavation, waterproofing, and installing a sump pump on a 130 year old house, and GJ MacRae did an amazing and very thorough job. They went above and beyond to repair the foundation that had started to deteriorate as well. Very professional and high quality work. I'd definitely recommend this company!

Let's just say that there aren't many companies of this calibre around these days. We've been dealing with GJ MacRae for the last seven years for everything sump pump related. Seven years ago the fine folks at GJ MacRae came in and replaced our existing sump with a modern unit complete with a marine battery backup and secondary pump. We have a ton of ground water around here and when it rains our sump fires non stop. Everything has been perfect and when it came time to service our system seven years in, GJ MacRae was all over it. Exceptional service, communication price and product. It's rare to see all 3 these days. Thanks for everything Gavin.
