Hello,

Is it normal for exterior brickwork to have tiny cracks in the bricks.
Quite a few of my bricks have these tiny cracks about an inch long and
less that 1mm wide. The house is about 45 years old.

Is this just what happens to aged bricks?

Sorry if this is a daft question but I have nothing else to worry about
tonight!

Thanks,

Graham

No, this doesnt just happen to bricks. Sounds like structural
movement. It takes a lot more than 1mm before anything has to be done,
but of course investigating now may prevent things worsening to that
point. Prepare to be caned by your insurance.
