Dave from Integrity Surveying Ltd with some information about the types of External Cracks
Bit superficial to be honest and in particular a tapered crack does not necessarily mean subsidence (which was not defined). For example it could be the opposite - heave. Anyone interested in cracking to their house would be well served to read Building Research Establishment Digest 251 (Assessment of damage in low-rise buildings) as this is the document most surveyors initially refer to anyway. Most importantly it concludes that “The only certain way of confirming the progression of damage is to take a series of measurements with time.”
Good video. Have you got a magic pen finger?
What about builders crack? Or smoking crack?
Awesome visual effects, you guys could work for NASA.
What if the crack is in a straight vertical line, close to the corner of the house, wider at the top, hairline towards the bottom? The crack itself is not close to the bottom of the house, about 5ft above the foundations, and probably about 2-3 ft in length. Described it to a surveyor over the phone, was told it was more than likely a thermal crack. Any information would help.
Thanks
I literally have the exact same crack on a property I am looking at and have been also told it is thermal expansion. Did you get an answer.
@@siblinginvesting the surveyor came out and had look, we were told it was just a thermal crack, and nothing to worry about. Best to get a surveyor to have look for piece of mind, worth the cost. Hope that helps.
@@sukisanghera4134 Thank you so much for replying so fast. My surveyor has said the same thing although recommended a structural engineer to have a look at it.
@@sukisanghera4134 when you are buying a property, its a must to get a structural survey done by a chartered engineer. helps you have piece of mind, welcome by lenders, you exactly know, what you are getting in to. money paid to structural engineer is every penny worth.
Gorilla glue fix that right up
