Cracks on the concrete wall
Cracks in the cement blocks is a bad sign

Another crack
Here is another crack on the outside wall of the house that worried our client
Wrong way to seal a crack
Our client tried to seal the crack with rigid products but the problem came up again since it is not a long-term solution, since as the wall cracks move, the sealant will break and fall or the crack will reappear at another location.
