What causes nail pops in drywall?

Nail pops in drywall are commonly caused by normal settling of the home or movement within the home’s structure, including foundation movement caused by seasonal soil expansion and contraction. If nail pops occur alongside wall cracks, sticking doors or windows, or uneven floors, contact a professional like JES Foundation Repair for a free inspection to determine whether foundation movement is the underlying cause and recommend the most appropriate solution for your home.
