Why Is My Wall Cracked?

Cracks are caused by hydrostatic pressure - soil and water pressing against your foundation. Left untreated, this can cause your wall to bow or lean, leading to serious structural issues.

Common Types of Foundation Cracks:

  • Horizontal Cracks: Most serious - indicates significant lateral pressure
  • Stair-Step Cracks: Common in block walls - shows differential settlement
  • Vertical Cracks: Often from settlement - can allow water infiltration

"We don't just stop the crack - we stop the movement."
