ABSTRACT A method of stopping leakage of water in a concrete structure comprising injecting a hydrophilic one component type polyurethane prepolymer or an impregnating agent which is prepared by adding cement to such polyurethane prepolymer into a hermetically sealed chamber formed in a leaking part of the concrete structure, whereby the polyurethane prepolymer foams and cures through reaction with water leaking in the concrete structure and the foamed prepolymer is forced to enter all cracks in the leaking part of the concrete structure by means of foaming pressure and volume expansion caused by the reaction, thereby caulking and hermetically sealing the cracks, and thus restoring the strength and watertightness of the concrete structure. Also disclosed is a method of stopping leakage of water in a concrete structure using an impregnating agent, comprising the steps of: applying a ground treatment to the surface of a part of the concrete structure which needs to stop leakage of water; checking the leaking part; boring the central portion of the leaking part; installing an injection pipe for injecting the impregnating agent into the bored portion; fixing the periphery of the injection pipe with a set accelerating agent to thereby define a hermetically sealed chamber in the leaking part; attaching a nipple to the injection pipe; injecting the impregnating agent containing a hydrophilic one component type polyurethane prepolymer as its principal component through the injection pipe; sealing the injection pipe so that the injected impregnating agent is prevented from flowing out of the chamber; and carrying out a surface treatment of the concrete structure after confirming that leakage of water has satisfactorily been stopped by the cured impregnating agent.
