End of April - May 12 Cracks LTD continues

After framing the first wall and running out of product to finish remaining cracks in foundation I took a bit of a break. After another kit came I worked on them randomly and they became bit easier to work in.
May 12 was the last day for foundation repairs.
Total structural cracked fixed: 12
Leaking or showing moisture signs our of 12: 4
Total cost of kit: ~$1,000
Saved: ~ $4,000 (after the cost of kit as per quote from crack doctor, (average is $500 per crack they charge)
Time spent: Hard to say, I'd say average is 3 hrs/crack not including time for epoxy to dry.(Total of about:36 hrs)

Other option was to dig out foundation around the house and water proof but that cost is about in range of $10,000 depending on the size of the lot and access.

Finally .... Foundation all done.
