How do I know if the porch movement needs attention?
A local specialist can record cracks and check whether the porch is separating from the main wall. Look for gaps that change or cracks that widen, and note if the porch door catches on its frame. Keep a simple record of what you see and when.
What should I ask a local specialist before porch subsidence repair starts?
Ask which service a local specialist recommends after looking at the porch, such as crack stitching or underpinning. Ask for the findings in writing and a plan for the work. Check that the specialist has experience with porch subsidence repair in Belfast.
Do you cover the whole of Belfast?
Yes. Specialists cover Belfast in full, including the surrounding area, and extend to other locations across the United Kingdom. Regardless of where your property is, a specialist can attend.
How quickly can you help?
Fill in the form with your address and a description of what you have found. A specialist will contact you directly with initial advice about your Belfast property.
Will I need underpinning?
Frequently not. Drainage work, tree management or a monitoring programme is sufficient to deal with a considerable number of cases in this area. A specialist recommends underpinning only when the site investigation makes a clear case for it.
