Cracks in walls: fire brigade and THW save Ückendorfer residential building!

A worrying incident was reported on April 17, 2025 at 10:45 p.m. on April 17, 2025. A resident of a semi -detached house discovered cracks in the walls and damage to the cultivation, which is used as a storage room. The fire brigade immediately moved out and found strange damage characteristics such as offset walls.

Technical consultants of the THW were consulted to evaluate the Situation. Fortunately, it was found that the damage does not spread to the main building so that the apartment remains habitable. However, the energy supplier immediately took precautionary measures and discontinued the electricity and gas supply for cultivation. With a total of 12 emergency services, the fire brigade and THW ensured that security measures were carried out on the critical area. The exact cause of the cracks remains unclear for the time being.
