Repair methods
What we can do for Caterham homes
For Caterham properties, the process starts with understanding the ground and the structure, then choosing an underpinning method to suit.
Applications
What Underpinning is used for
Leaning bay windows
Bay window walls can lean or crack when the original footings were too shallow for the ground beneath.
Conservatories separating from the house
A conservatory pulling away from the main house often points to movement where the two structures meet.
Extensions and party walls
New extensions and party-wall works sometimes need deeper foundations than the original house.
