Diagnosing Structural Damage in Your House

Structural damages can be anything that adversely affects the value of your property. A simple snap beam, part of a foundation wall settling, poor design or structural faults can cause these problems. You can start seeing these damages at any time.

Diagnosing Structural Damage

• Check uneven floors caused by cracked floor joists, settling foundations, and improper construction. 
• Look at cracks in plaster, stonework, and brickwork. They can be superficial but may also signify more severe settlement issues. Ensure whether cracks are diagonal, vertical, or horizontal.
• Inspect roof leaks as they are a sign that roof timbers are moving outwards.
• A sagging roof means structural issues caused by removing load-bearing walls or mid-sized framing timbers.
