Home Inspection Repairs

Hairline Cracks in Basement or Driveway 5

Missy : Concrete expands and contracts naturally and, over time, cracks will occur. As long as the cracks are minor don’t list them in a request for repairs. However, if the breaks are more than a quarter inch, it’s an excellent idea to have a structural inspection.

Structural cracks are a whole new ballgame.

Don : Hairline cracks in a basement, although not a structural concern, can be a potential water leak.
