Croydon has Victorian and Edwardian terraces around the town centre, Thornton Heath and South Norwood, with 1930s suburbs and post-war housing further out. The north of the borough is largely on clay, while the south around Purley and Sanderstead is chalk on hillier ground. Many houses have been converted into flats or extended, so we often check previous alterations as well as movement. We regularly work in CR0, CR2, CR7 and CR8.
Common reasons clients in Croydon call us
• Cracking in Victorian and Edwardian terraces
• Subsidence linked to trees, clay soils or leaking drains
• Checks on flat conversions and removed walls or chimney breasts
• Movement on sloping sites in the south of the borough
• Pre-purchase checks after a RICS survey flags a concern
Because we also design drainage, we can identify when a leaking drain is behind the movement and design the fix.
