- Stair-step cracking in masonry

- Cracks that widen or recur after patching
- Cracks paired with floor slope or sticking openings
Why cracks can return
If movement continues beneath or around the cracked area, a cosmetic repair can reopen. Where structural movement is involved, stabilization may need to be considered before or alongside crack repair.
Track changes
Photos, dates and simple measurements can help show whether a crack is stable or changing. That information can be useful during an evaluation.
