Brick Cracks and Foundation Movement
Exterior masonry can reveal movement patterns, but brick cracks alone do not specify the repair.
Key things to consider
- Stair-step cracking through mortar joints
- Separation near windows or doors
- Cracks that widen or change
- Related interior movement
What to do next
Document the pattern and evaluate the foundation and site rather than choosing a repair based on masonry appearance alone.
Use this guide as context, not a diagnosis. Foundation conditions are property-specific. On-site measurements and inspection are more useful than choosing a repair based on one symptom.

Common questions
Can one symptom confirm a foundation problem?
Usually not. Cracks, floor changes and sticking doors are more useful when evaluated together with measurements and site conditions.
