Hi Guys/Gals
A house me & my wife like had some structural movement back in 1985. After reading the reports underpinning was not done because trees precluded(i guess stopped and caused) this. So the recommendation was to "whole of the perimeter wall was and spine wall between the lounge and dinning room piled, using small diameter piles, either needled through the wall, or used as tension and compression piles externally." What does this mean ??? The trees have a perservation order(sorry for the bad spelling) The same surveyor has again re-assed this prior to going on sale and the report says "Overrall, there are no indications of any progressive movements to the property, as externally there were no signs of any new cracking".
These complications are refelected in the price. They are willing to knock of 30 - 40k of the price. Price is around 365k What would people do in my situation... Any help would be appreciated Thanks in advance Gurmej
