The situation
A property in Eltham had developed a pattern of diagonal cracking in the external brickwork at the rear corner. The owner was concerned about subsidence and required a clear diagnosis.
Engineering scope delivered
Structural inspection and written report diagnosing the cracking as consistent with differential settlement, with recommended monitoring period and indicative remedial options.
Project outcome
Following a six-month stable period, movement was confirmed as historic and complete. No underpinning was required.
