There are many reasons why a structural foundation might fail. These include factors ranging from plumbing leakages to sub-standard foundations of an existing building and even the shifting of the ground beneath a residence can cause unexpected problems.
In instances like this, it’s crucial to engage an expert in underpinning Sydney homes and residences. Many neighbourhoods in Sydney’s inner-west such as Burwood, Canterbury or Leichhardt were developed before the adoption of modern building codes. As a result, many of these problems can be associated with now out of date building methods. With the majority of underpinning work in Sydney we see, residences were often built on brick footings without expansion joints, or built on clay beds which have a much greater incidence of significant movement in a home’s foundations.
Homes in Sydney’s inner-west are susceptible to a range of potential issues which is most notably sunken piers. Due to these older homes being built on brick footings, which have no expansion joints or on clay beds which have been seen to move significantly over time.
