Stairstep and horizontal cracks in the mortar joints can be a sign of serious movement.

This is normal during the curing process of concrete, and reparing it is a simple matter. However, this may also be a sign of settlement when combined with other signs such as sticking windows and/or doors.

Cracks in Brick Facing
Cracks can indicate that your foundation has moved. If you notice these cracks, a professional should be contacted. Avoid cosmetic repairs prior to determining the cause of repairs.
