Root Causes of Cracked Walls or Doorways
- Foundation settlement: From poorly compacted soil to excessive moisture in the soil to inadequate footings or support columns, there are several reasons why your home may be settling abnormally. And if it does, you’ll likely notice the effects beyond just the basement or crawl space but throughout other areas of your home.
- Surface water: Pooling water in your yard that’s a result of poor exterior drainage, improper land grading, or a faulty gutter system can cause water to build up around the foundation, thereby putting pressure on the walls that could cause settlement issues.
- Subsurface groundwater: Hydrostatic pressure from excessive moisture in and around the foundation can lead to degradation, further cracks, and damage to the basement and crawl space walls.
