Hello community,
it took a long time, but we have finally found our dream property.
Unfortunately, there are some things that make us uncertain.
The house is 6 years old, so the warranty has unfortunately already expired.
It is a solid construction house made of Poroton bricks.
Upstairs there are noticeably many cracks (we could not see any cracks on the ground floor). Some unfortunately run across the wall.
I have attached two pictures. The crack is on a 17.5 cm masonry wall. On the back side of the wall is the bathroom. Apparently, the crack has caused 3 bathroom tiles to crack.
Are the cracks concerning?
The seller said that such cracks are normal in new buildings. He himself received this statement when he tried to claim this as a defect from the construction company about 2-3 years ago.
Thank you very much
