Designed for foundations and slabs affected by ground movement

This service is for owner-occupiers who are seeing ongoing or worsening signs of ground or foundation movement and want an engineering led assessment — not a short term fix.

 

Are experiencing any of the following: 

Uneven or sloping floors

Visible or recurring cracks

Doors or windows no longer closing correctly

Settlement following heavy rain or ground softening

Common signs of ground or foundation movement

Symptoms homeowners often notice first

Many homeowners notice changes they can see or feel inside their home. These can often indicate underlying ground movement.

Common signs include:

  • sloping or uneven floors
  • cracks in walls that reopen after repair
  • cracking around windows or door frames
  • doors or windows sticking or jamming
  • gaps forming between walls and ceilings
  • floors that feel soft, bouncy, or uneven
  • changes appearing after prolonged wet weather
  • settlement or dropping at one corner of the home
 
Not all of these symptoms require engineered intervention. Some are cosmetic or maintenance related. Others are caused by ground movement, soil behaviour, or foundation performance.
 
Most homeowners seek professional advice and rely on an expert to diagnose the cause and recommend the appropriate remedial solution.
