Will help with crack pipes in the walls?
Last summer, we had contractors build a room addition on our house. Proved terrible – that never showed up, the roof had gaps, some of the windows are not set at ground level, and the list continues. Now about two windows that have cracks in the wall extends diagonally from diagonally opposite corners of the windows. We do not have gutters on the walls, and rain tends to be more than one point focused on each wall. My husband thinks we can at least stop the cracking and perhaps completely corrected by installing gutters. I am not convinced, because the hand of work was so poor in the first place. Any idea if the gutters will make a noticeable difference? Yes No gutters, then what?
I'm not very good with maintenance from home, but the cracks in the walls of the moisture is caused to climb If the windows were not installed correctly, you may be able to putty, depending on how big the differences are. It seems that either were not installed correctly or not measured well. The gutters can help, but not much. You may also need plastic surgery pointing. That's another major reason for cracks in the walls. Contractors would go back and fix it. If they were licensed and the city may also file a complaint with the local building commissioner.
