COOMERA WATERS SUBSIDENCE DAMAGE

SUBSIDENCE, WALL CRACKS, STRUCTURAL ENGINEER REPORT.

The owners of this house at Coomera Waters found some cracks and gaps and called Forensic Engineers.

Our investigation found that the cracks & gaps were not so large and the building level variations were not excessive. However, our thorough investigation also found that part of the house was located on loose landfill which was gradually settling. And stabilizing the house would require some underpinning.

And, our expert engineer report indicated the underpinning locations, the best types of underpins and the best underpinners for the work.

The property owners were incredibly relieved that they had a positive plan to fix their precious home and could move forward with confidence.

Locally Based.

Forensic Engineers are based on the Gold Coast and service SE Qld & Nth NSW (subject to shceduling availability).

Extensive Experience.

We have decades of experience in soil test / geotechnical engineering as well as decades of subsidence & wall crack investigation experience. And our Structural Engineer reports draw on that knowledge of ground conditions that cause footing movements and house damages.

Before committing to any type of underpinning, for peace-of-mind, contact us at Forensic Engineers for a chat and an independent opinion. If underpinning is necessary, then we also strongly advise sending your own independant Engineer Report to two or three underpinning companies for quotes before making a decision.
