This part of south-east London is mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semis, many now split into flats or extended into the loft and at the rear. Much of it sits on London Clay, and roads around Forest Hill, Honor Oak and Hilly Fields are steep, so seasonal ground movement and mature street trees are a common theme. We regularly work in SE23, SE6, SE4 and SE13.
Common reasons clients in Lewisham & Forest Hill call us
• Cracking around bay windows and above doors and windows
• Subsidence linked to street trees, clay soils or leaking drains
• Movement on sloping sites and stepped terraces
• Checks on old loft conversions and removed chimney breasts
• 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.
