Crack inspection and structural reports

Diagnosis of visible cracking: its cause, its severity and the action it requires.

Technical drawings — plans, sections and elevations prepared for a residential project
The brief

The studio diagnoses visible cracking: its cause, its severity and the action it requires.

Approach

Cracks are recorded, measured and assessed in the context of the building's construction, ground conditions and history of alteration.

Planning and regulation

Many cracks are cosmetic; others indicate movement that requires monitoring or repair. The inspection establishes which.

Delivery

Findings are issued as a written report with recommendations.

Fees

Fees are fixed for each stage and confirmed in writing once the scope is agreed. Construction cost depends on the site, the specification and the procurement route, and is established through an indicative cost plan at feasibility stage.

Frequently asked questions

When is cracking in a wall serious? +
Most are not. Hairline cracks under 1mm are usually cosmetic. Cracks over 5mm, diagonal near windows, or widening need investigation. We assess severity on site and give clear recommendations.
How are fees and construction costs established? +
Fees are fixed for each stage and confirmed in writing once the scope is agreed. Construction cost depends on the site, the specification and the procurement route, and is established through an indicative cost plan at feasibility stage.
