Stucco cracking
Diagonal cracks at window/door corners signal frame movement.
Interior wall cracking
New drywall cracks, separation at ceiling lines, or popped nails.
Slab movement
Uneven floors, gaps at baseboards, or visible slab displacement.
Door & window misalignment
Doors that suddenly stick or windows that won't latch.
Commercial building concerns
Tilt-up panel separations, parapet damage, or shear-wall cracking.
