Subsidence & Wall Cracks: Underpinning Free Home Assessment was Wrong
The owner of this townhouse had a free wall cracks assessment from a very chatty & charming underpinning sales rep.
And the underpinning sales rep told him that these wall cracks were caused by very serious subsidence and that Underpinning was needed URGENTLY!

And, the scary cracks were just fine cracks in highly weathered wall render and there had been a build-up of black mould!
Yes. The underpinning sales rep did not even know the difference between mould and serious wall cracks & subsidence.
