What should I include when I contact a local specialist about movement?
Describe the building and the part of it that has moved. Give the approximate age and the type of construction if you know them. Add any recent change to drainage or trees close to the wall.
Will crack monitoring be enough to decide the repair?
Crack monitoring shows whether movement is still active. A local specialist may also need a structural survey or a drainage survey before choosing a repair. The findings from those checks guide the next step.
Do you cover the whole of Kensington and Chelsea?
Yes. Specialists cover all of Kensington and Chelsea and its surrounding areas, as well as neighbouring towns across Greater London. Wherever you are locally, a specialist can help.
