Hi, I have a garage that is made out of cement blocks. The house and garage were built in the 50's. The garage is in good shape except for a couple of areas of cracking. What would I use to fix this or is this best left to a professional? Thanks.

As long as the garage is structuraly sound no reason not to do it yourself. Remove any loose mortar and replace with new. If you are only doing it for looks you can caulk the cracks.
