Long vertical crack in gable wall - is it safe?
Sorted, thanks.

A long vertical crack is worthy of keeping an eye on. You mentioned the tree, just how close is this tree to your wall and what sort of tree is it (maple, Oak.etc...) as it most definitely could have a bearing on the crack.
Does the crack get wider as it goes up the wall ? this info. would also help.
Little about a lot and a lot about a little.

the tree you mention doesn't have "leaves" per se. therefore it is an evergreen. some kind of fir has spikes. another is acacia. a yew is a bush and is an evergreen. about the crack. something has shifted. the bricks are held to the interior framing with narrow galvanized strips, one end nailed to a stud and the other end sandwiched between a mortar joint. has your foundation shifted? is the footing in sand?Comment
