“Dear PoPville,
I live up in Brightwood Park and last week we had DC Water come dig up and repair a major water main under the street right in front of our house. Since then, both my house and my neighbor’s house has experienced significant internal cracking on our interior front walls and shared rowhouse wall. Any community advice about how to best navigate this?“
