  • Bulging of Brick or Masonry Walls: This can be caused by corrosion of the shelf angle. They can also be caused by excessive rainwater coming down the sides of the home, and over saturation of the ground around the wall.

  • Step Cracks: In most cases, this occurs due to settlement or deflections. If the support for walls settles or is deflected, the brick and masonry will follow suit.
