Basement Wall Cracks Tell a Story of Structural Foundation Damage
One way to mitigate damage from a structural foundation problem and lower the cost of its repair is to spot the problem early.
Unfortunately, many homeowners don’t know the signs of foundation damage and may ignore the problem unintentionally until it has progressed beyond the point of easy repair. One way to spot damage to a foundation is to keep an eye on cracks in basement walls.
Small, non-structural cracks are common and may be only a source of water seepage. Structural cracks, on the other hand, indicate wall movement that can damage plumbing, utilities and, ultimately, the structure of the home above.
