WALL CRACK REPAIR SOLUTIONS
You should understand the type of crack you have so you will be able to know what services you will need. Vertical and angled cracks are usually caused by settlement or heaving. Horizontal cracks can be caused by lateral pressure. Water can also cause additional problems. If you have standing water in a yard due to poor drainage, you may find that once the foundation settles, cracks will form and water will find its way into the structure. Your basement walls can become compromised when the outside soil expands and a tremendous force is exerted against your structure.
It is important to take steps to repair a cracked wall once you see indications. When cracks appear within the wall you know the integrity is compromised. Ignoring this problem can lead to structural failure and the entire wall would need to be replaced. When cracks start to form it is good to keep an eye out for warning signs of foundation failure. Catching a problem when it is small is better than dealing with it when it becomes catastrophic.
