Subsidence Surveys - London & Essex
Worried about subsidence, settlement, or structural movement? We carry out subsidence surveys for homeowners who need a structural engineer to inspect cracks, identify likely causes, and set out the next step clearly.
What we assess
- Diagonal cracking near windows and doors
- Signs of foundation movement or local settlement
- Tree-related movement and seasonal change patterns
- Bowing walls, uneven floors, or sticking openings
- Whether monitoring, repair, or further investigation is needed
Who this page is for
- Homeowners searching specifically for a subsidence survey in London
- Buyers who need a structural opinion before exchange
- Owners dealing with cracks and suspected movement
- Clients who need a written engineer's report for an insurer or solicitor
- Property owners who need to distinguish cosmetic cracking from true movement
Subsidence and cracks: dedicated search intent page
Your broader structural survey page is still the main survey service. This page is an additive landing page aimed at the more specific subsidence query set, including cracks in walls and suspected movement.
If you want the broader decision-making guide first, read Do I Need a Structural Engineer? and then come back here if subsidence is the specific concern.
For general structural surveys across London, visit our structural surveys service. For alteration projects such as chimney removal, see chimney removal structural design.
