Thank you for this valuable information . Such a wonderful basic crash course for those like me who have no idea about foundation.

🎉 thank you

Thank you for making this video. The door frames one some of our doors have cracked right where the horizontal part and vertical part attach. Is that an indicator of foundation issues or just poor quality door frame?

I don’t have any cracks like was disco.. but my interior stairs look As if they are pulling apart from the top landing ( where is is supposed to be flush)..I do see some cracks in the basement floor..on the same side of the house where the interior stairs are..these stairs are on my first floor to my second floor.. Thank you for any suggestions..I’ve lived in my house 20 years..this has happened over time.

Sigh, have the staircase looking crack on the exterior brick. Thank you for the info! I live in a bungalow from the 1800’s. I was wondering…if there’s a 1 inch-ish gap between the floor and the floor mouldings/trims/edges on the 2nd floor….is that also a sign of foundation problems/the house sinking (they may be 2 diff things)?

When a Home Foundation Inspection is done. Where should they place the Zip Level to take accurate measurements. Based on 2 Companies that have given me Estimates, they took the measurements at different places. The Front Door entrance measurements stated we need repair while the 2nd Company took measurements from about center of my home & stated no repair is needed. Who is giving me the correct information prior to replacing our Roof? Thank you

What is it's cracking in the concrete foundation that lines up with tile cracks inside the house

Are you guys In San Antonio TX? I bought a new build 1yr and some months ago, and I’ve started to notice some vertical cracks where drywall meets eachother. Would that be something to be concerned about? Some of my baseboard also seems to have separated at the where they meet? Idk if it was just filled with caulking or not

What if house is hillside and theres settlement 2-3" downhill. No large cracks below but floor tile in house is cracked in several rooms-House built in 47. Is that settlement or sinking?

I bought a place 7 months ago. The painter came in and sanded down minor cracks at the drywall upstairs. It was 100% perfect (as always, I'm picky and he knows I HATE gaps). Well, not anymore. I get the feeling that at least one moron has touched this place. They lined up the drywall upstairs on the sloped ceiling, so ceiling cracked (small, very minor ones) and it goes all the way down the sloped wall in some places. Straight line, all minor stuff. No large or diagonal cracks. Downstairs, the join at the crown molding is cracked. Both sides. Not big, but I notice it because painters aren't cheap. The ceiling upstairs is short, around 7 feet, so I can push it and part of the drywall has a little give it shouldn't have. So, clearly idiots have been through and didn't drywall/tape/mud it correctly. At least, if *I* did it, it sure wouldn't! There's also a concrete crack at the front steps where they meet the building. That one is bigger and not going to be as easy to fix. Maybe a 13 or 14 sf house. I'll probably fill it once weather is warmer. Not ideal, but lots of these channels talk about 25 thousand like it's nothing. I'd say, I'd buy a new house, but I've watched many old houses come down, and the garbage they replace it with. I'm never surprised to see the "concrete" steps crumbling within 5 years. Meanwhile, our coach house has a visibly sinking corner *for DECADES*. Still there, 120+ years later. Front steps of early 1900s front house have barely ANY wear, and CERTAINLY not literally crumbling, like our neighbor's greatly overpriced POG. It's not even REAL concrete or REAL limestone for 3 or 4 million. LOL! Nothing like "step" cracks in the brick or siding anywhere else, tho. So, that's something.

Thank you for checking out this video! If you have any questions on your foundation or a concrete coating, leave them down below. We'd LOOOVE to hear from you.

Im in Tennessee, my kom for screwed here but we wre in ut yo ein it but id love to contact! Gid Bless You!!

Is it normal for very light cracks the first few years in a new build here in Texas

I have cracks in my cement floor ,,which r hairline ,,is it a cause of concern

When it rain, there is a large puddle of water. Around my house. the Concrete slab foundation is cracking .

Every issue you showed has been going on with my brothers house for years..is there a certain point it becomes to late..I'm convinced my brother's house is going to collapse one day soon😬

I found the head of a drywall screw sticking out from the ceiling in the living room. It’s not really sticking out but it looks like a black dot , this wasn’t there when I bought the house last year and it new house. Should I be worried? Maybe I’m freaking out and it was there the whole time. Thank you

Is it ever to late and you have to just completely tear your home down

How much does it cost for someone to come out and inspect my house?

Nothing new on this channel. He is trying to advertise his business
