Here is a summary from the client for the reasoning of the works, recommended following many detailed surveys. The latest monitoring results and our email report to Insurers Arbtech Tree Report Arbtech Environmental Report Site Investigation Report SMP's NHBC Chapter 4.2 tree assessment based on the existing tree heights. Note for remedial works, full tree heights have to be accounted for. In summary, the RHS block is slowly ratching downwards and rotating away from the LHS block. Cyclic movements currently shows a range of 15 mm vertical movement. The RHS gable wall is approx. 100 mm out of plumb. Insurers wish to remove all trees near to the property to avoid demolition. Previous underpinning by others has not worked. Given the ground conditions in close proximity to a former clay quarry, rebuilding off new foundations or new underpinning works exceed the value of the properties and is not a viable option.
