"How bad is the crack in my foundation?" - That is a common question that clients ask. And it's understandable. After all, a foundation is important! After a few hundred cracked foundations though, you start to realize that a crack is not always as bad as it may seem.
An engineer once said "if you have concrete that doesn't crack, you have magic concrete". There is a lot of truth in that. All the metal and additional supports that we add to concrete are to minimize cracking.
So how bad is your foundation crack? The answer isn't so simple. Generally an inspection of the crack is required. But don't let it go too long, as it can get worse without being noticeable.
