Subsidence occurs when the ground beneath your home shifts or sinks, often leading to cracking walls, sloping floors, and other signs of structural distress. Early detection and intervention are crucial to avoid extensive and costly damage.
Soil movement
Expansive soils: Clay, silt and peat expand when wet and shrink when dry, causing ground movement.
Sandy soils: Prone to erosion and shifting, especially with leaking pipes or poor drainage.
Tree roots
Large trees near your property can draw moisture from the soil, causing shrinkage. Invasive roots may also damage foundations directly.
Water damage
Changes in groundwater levels or plumbing leaks can saturate or dry out the soil, leading to instability beneath the foundation.
Building works
Nearby construction, deep excavation or dewatering can affect soil structure and lead to ground movement.
Poor ground preparation
Inadequately compacted soil during construction can settle unevenly over time, increasing the risk of subsidence.
If you’ve noticed cracks in your walls, sloping floors or windows and doors that no longer close properly, it’s time to take action. Our team will carry out a detailed assessment and determine if your home is affected by subsidence.
We start with a thorough inspection of your property. Based on our findings, we provide a clear, non-binding repair plan and quote, so you know exactly what needs to be done and why.
Target Fixings applies over 20 years of experience to stop further sinking and restore foundation stability. Using our Heli Pile system, we transfer the load of your property to deeper, more stable ground layers — all with minimal disruption and long-term reliability.
