Hello everyone!
My better half and I want to buy a house. Today we found one that we like.
There is one catch. The floor is uneven and the tiles are therefore crooked and partially cracked. The tile trim (the half tiles on the wall next to the floor) has cracks in the silicone joints. There are tiles in every room.
The realtor and other interested parties could not say exactly what it is. I am afraid that it has something to do with the foundations or the ground in general and will be very expensive. But I have not seen any cracks in the basement ceiling or on any walls. Could it just be the screed? In the basement, in one room, there were also longer cracks in the screed. If it is the screed, can it be repaired or does it have to be completely replaced?
The house is from the 1990s, but has been unoccupied for 2 years. The condition is otherwise appropriate for the year and good. Everything looks like expert work and not like a DIY job.
For those who try remote diagnosis here: Thank you very much, Merci, Gracias
