Problem

My property is cracking. Is it serious? What can be done?

Solution

All buildings move all of the time. This little known fact sometimes causes unnecessary worry. Cracks can appear in parts of buildings for many reasons: they are not always serious.

Sometimes nothing needs to be done at all, on other occasions the cracks need only be monitored over a period of months, or years, to establish the nature of the movement.

It is only in a small minority of rarest cases that immediate action is needed to investigate and put a stop to the movement which has caused the cracks.

As a first step you can contact either Tony Kay or Dianne Green on 0114 276 7074 to discuss your concern.
