If you find crack in a foundation, shouldn't you, like, report it to the DEA?

The correct thing to do is hire an attorney to fill out the DEA paperwork.
Then when the DEA asks the attorney for more information you send another check to the attorney. Its easier this way.

When I find hairline cracks in concrete floors, I always recommend a Radon test.

I thought radon passed right through concrete, no crack needed.

Radon levels have proved to be much higher in basements with small openings, such as cracks.

The only time I worry about a concrete crack is if it's wide enough to swallow my loonie . That's a dollar coin for all you not familiar with Canadian currency. Doug
