Do you have bowed and leaning basement walls?
There is a difference between a bowed wall and a leaning wall. A leaning wall usually has a horizontal crack at the top 1/3 of the wall and is usually caused by expansive soil. A bowed wall also has a horizontal crack, but it usually midway down the wall and is almost always caused by hydro-static pressure.
Ground water and poor drainage near the foundation lead to hydro-static pressure. The causes of cracked, bowed and leaning walls are improperly compacted fill, inadequate drainage, a change in “run off” water, blasting and a number of other less common causes.
