Crack X

Crack X is a Natick-based foundation crack repair, masonry restoration, and basement/bulkhead waterproofing company with roots going back to 1985, when the late Wayne Fortier founded it as Poxy-Crete before it became Crack-X; the company says it is now family-owned and led by Peter Gormley, who took over after Fortier's passing. It operates out of several New England offices and is listed on the Procore Network as a specialty waterproofing contractor. Sixteen Google reviews from 2021 through mid-2026, all five stars, describe a range of named field technicians — Alex, Chris, Jessiah, Lucas and Jakob, Greg and James among them — handling foundation crack repairs, bulkhead work, and basement leaks after storms. Reviewers consistently note promptness (several mention technicians arriving early or right on time), clear explanations of the work and follow-up recommendations, and repair jobs that held: a 2026 reviewer whose foundation was repaired years earlier came back to the company for a bulkhead job specifically because of that earlier work's quality. A 2022 reviewer said the company gave an honest assessment that ended up saving them money rather than upselling repairs, and a 2023 reviewer, writing as a single female homeowner who hadn't always had great experiences with contractors, called the visit from Jakob and Lucas respectful, communicative, and outstanding. There isn't a negative account on file to weigh against that record, and the written history, while not huge, spans five years with no apparent gap in quality across the many different technicians named. For a homeowner anywhere in the company's New England service area dealing with a foundation crack, a leaking basement, or bulkhead issues, this is a consistently positive record from a long-established specialist — worth confirming any current licensing or warranty terms directly, since none appear in what's on file here.
