Have you noticed a crack in the walls interior or exterior of your building? This could be quite serious!
Today I am going to go over the different types of cracks and what they could mean.
Wall cracks fall into three main categories:
Common causes of wall cracks:
The look of your cracks will help the technician evaluate what the underlying cause is and how to fix the damage.
Narrow vertical cracks – Are most commonly caused by minor settlement or shrinkage
Wide vertical cracks – These exceed 3mm in width. These are normally caused by significant settlement and will require detailed inspections.
Horizontal cracks – These are immediate concern especially in block foundation walls. This means there is something going on with the foundation of the building.
