Welcome to today’s 1:5:10:365 Tip for becoming a better steward for our home and planet.
1:5:10:075 Tip: Keep a digital photo of any structural or foundation cracks. This will allow you to compare the crack with the photo later to determine if and how much the building is shifting. The photo above shows damage caused by expansive clay soil.

Suggested Review: See 1:5:10:365 EcoTips :076, 077, :078 for more information about expansive clay soils
The sooner shifts in a building are noted the less expensive their causes are to diagnose and repair. Take a far shot to indicate the cracks position and a second close-up with a ruler next to the crack to provide some perspective for the shot.
