Structural Repairs Oxford
Soil investigation underway in Oxford: works began on three soil investigations to determine the soil type and condition so that suitable piling schemes can be designed for to a number of properties for one of our social housing clients due to the cracking indicating subsidence. Our investigations include camera drainage tests to ensure the drains are in good condition and working correctly, sampling of the soil in a laboratory and recorded soil conditions down to 4.5m’s.
The above property is showing signs of recent movement and is in close proximity to a very large mature tree which often cause subsidence and roots ingress damaging foundations. The gable elevation recently had a large amount of ivy removed which has revealed number of further cracks.
The property is currently being monitored to check for further movement, contact us today to see how we can help with site investigation and crack monitoring call 0333 444 0154 or email enquiries@newmans.com
