New house basement floor

11 years ago

I don't have a picture but we have not even moved into our new house and the cement is already cracking. Some of the cracks are so large that you can pic pieces of cement out. Hairline fractures I understand those are normal. What can be done to fix the cracks do we force the builder to address it are we stuck with it?

Make bruiser adress the problem

Just suck it up for as we r stuck with it
