We are experts and structural steel contractor
Based in Boston, MA, the XStructural team is well versed in local building codes, guidelines, and best practices.
Stress cracks occur due to the settling of a structure after some time. Often, the foundation itself shifts a bit during settling and this causes stress on every other part of the building, especially walls and floors, where small to large cracks occur. Stress cracks do not automatically mean you have a major structural issue, as a certain amount of settling and cracking can be fine. It is important, however, to have cracks checked by a professional to rule out the presence of a larger structural issue. XStructural will inspect the building and then either repair the cracks, if deemed cosmetic, or will plan a course of action to repair to the foundation or other structural components that are the culprit of a larger problem.
