Our company has served homeowners for decades, ensuring their properties remain structurally sound, safe, and beautiful.
Three Main Causes of Brickwork Cracking
Brick and mortar are especially vulnerable to wear and tear. The cause of your brickwork’s cracks may include one or more of the following:
- Soil Problems: Eroding, shifting, contracting, or poorly prepared soil can cause severe exterior and structural damage.
- Poor Drainage: If rain and stormwater pool on or flood your property, it may create hydrostatic pressure and tension on your bricks.
- Growing Tree Roots: As tree and vegetation roots grow and deepen, they shift and weaken brick and mortar.
