Subsidence is a serious structural issue that can cause cracks, uneven floors, and long-term damage to your property. If left untreated, it can lead to costly repairs and reduce property value. At CLP Structures, we provide professional Subsidence Reports across the UK, assessing structural movement, identifying the causes, and recommending effective solutions.
Subsidence Inspections & Reports
We conduct detailed structural assessments to determine whether your property is affected by subsidence, heave, or settlement. Our reports provide clear conclusions and recommended remedial actions.
Crack Monitoring & Analysis
Not all cracks indicate subsidence, but they can be a warning sign. We monitor and analyze wall cracks, assessing whether they are due to ground movement or other structural issues.
Foundation Assessments
We evaluate your property’s foundations to identify any weaknesses, soil-related issues, or water damage contributing to subsidence.
Soil & Ground Condition Surveys
Subsidence is often caused by soil shrinkage, clay movement, or nearby tree roots affecting moisture levels. We analyze ground conditions to pinpoint the underlying cause.
Remedial Recommendations & Structural Solutions
If subsidence is detected, we provide expert guidance on stabilization techniques, such as underpinning, piling, or drainage improvements.
Pre-Purchase Subsidence Reports
If you’re buying a property with signs of movement, our subsidence reports help you understand the risks and potential repair costs before making a decision.
Insurance & Mortgage Reports
Many mortgage lenders and insurance companies require a professional subsidence report before approving financing or claims. We provide detailed reports that meet industry standards.
Subsidence occurs when the ground beneath a building shifts, causing the foundations to move unevenly and leading to structural damage.
