The main causes of subsidence

Several factors can lead to subsidence:

Clay soil: Land that sits on clay soil that shrinks and swells with changes in moisture levels.

Tree roots: Large trees near buildings can extract water from the soil, causing it to dry out and shrink.

Leaking pipes: Water from damaged pipes can wash away soil or cause it to soften.

Mining: Old mine shafts or tunnels can collapse, leading to ground instability.

Drought: Extended dry periods can cause soil to shrink, especially in clay-rich areas.

Signs and symptoms of subsidence

Spotting subsidence early can help prevent major damage. Look out for these signs:

Cracks in walls, especially those wider at the top

Gaps between walls and skirting boards

Doors and windows sticking or not closing properly
