Deciphering Cracks: Expert Insights


When it comes to home inspections, one of the most common concerns among homeowners is deciphering which cracks are harmless and which ones signal potential trouble. At LunsPro Inspection Group, our team of ASHI-certified inspectors, including the experienced Scott T., is dedicated to providing clarity and expert guidance in such situations.

During a recent inspection at a new construction site, Scott encountered a scenario that perfectly illustrates the nuanced nature of cracks in structures. On the driveway, he noticed a crack resulting from concrete shrinkage, possibly compounded by minor settling. While this may seem like a minor issue at first glance, Scott knows that such cracks can raise questions and cause worry among homeowners.

The key concern with cracks like these is the potential for water ingress if they expand over time. As Scott noted, if the crack widens, it could allow water to seep in, leading to complications down the road. However, upon initial inspection, the crack appeared stable and did not exhibit signs of imminent danger.

As an ASHI-certified inspector, Scott T. brings a wealth of experience and expertise to every inspection. He understands that each crack tells a unique story, and careful assessment is crucial to determine its significance. During the inspection, Scott not only identified the crack but also provided valuable insights and recommendations based on its current condition.

At LunsPro Inspection Group, we believe in proactive inspection and education. Our goal is not just to identify issues but also to empower homeowners with knowledge about their property's condition.
