The paint’s peeling off from efflorescence and obsessive moisture over here in this area, and the humidity goes down into the soil, gets underneath the paint, peels it off, and causes the rebar to oxidize and expand up to five times its diameter. So it’s fractured over here, possibly five feet right there. There are a few more fractures in that corner area. The fracture seems to go here and follow the bottom of the paint. This would all have to be broken out in this area, which would be pretty severe. It seems somebody has attempted to patch this before and failed, which usually happens. Patchwork doesn’t stay on because it’s not done correctly. This corner is probably a corner strap, and the horizontal fracture continues, going on a little bit further, and may stop.
Over here, anytime you see paint curling like that, it means there’s excessive moisture in this area; the rainwater comes off of the roof lands here is not landscaped correctly and spends too much time hanging out next to the foundation and eventually peels off the paint or goes below the paint line and attacks and continues almost the entire length of the house. Again, rainwater comes off lands here and doesn’t have anywhere to go; the paint is Curlin,g, but this site is probably the least affected as far as horizontal fractures. It has a slightly higher slope than the other side.
