Hi guys,
Just back from looking at a house I’m interested in buying, but the garage wall had a very precarious large gaps running diagonally down it. It looks based on the mortar that it might have been covered up before but reopened again!
What generally causes this? I thought foundational cracks were normally virtical, the fact these are diagonal concern me most.
The double garage which sits to the side of the main house but still attached, had an extension added to the rear of it 10 years ago.
Just wondering how much a repair to resolve something like this could cost as I’ve no experience with this?
Thanks
