Faulty Drainage and CRACKS in Brick Mean What?

Описание: Cracks in your brick lines. Do they automatically mean your house is settling, or that you need a lengthy, expensive repair? Join us today at a viewer's home as we assess some potential damage: after receiving a scary estimate quoting thousands of dollars in repairs, they called us in to provide a second opinion.

While we STRONGLY encourage you to regularly inspect your home, not every flaw or problem should set off all the bells and lights! Some problems are easy fixes, others are signs of deeper issues, and some could be either one. In this video, we'll explore how cracking brick could be a sign of either major settling or of simpler drainage and erosion issues. Worried about cracks in YOUR home's walls? Join Kent as he explains the various factors to consider!

🔨 ABOUT CONSTRUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS 🔨
Over the years we’ve seen many different approaches to home maintenance. Some are good and some a little questionable, but most involve waiting for a problem and then asking lots of questions—what is a sump pump? How do I know if this is mold? Am I responsible for that water line? Does my insurance cover this?

We’d like to offer a different approach.

We believe that knowing the right questions to ask and the right people to call is the key to good home maintenance. We’ve built this channel because we want to use our combined years of experience to help you know how to care for your homes. Walls really do talk—you just have to know what to ask.
