Hello,

an earthquake 30 years ago caused a crack halfway up a gable wall.
The wall is a cavity wall.
Photos may follow.

How would you approach repairing this crack?

Then it seems the issue is not urgent after all.

Not literally urgent... The damage happened 30 years ago already. 😉

Yes, of course, sorry.

In fact, the renovation work doesn’t start until next year...

So, based on how things look, you should tear the house down.
