Why Brentwood Properties Are at Risk

Located on London clay, Brentwood is one of the areas in Essex most affected by subsidence. The clay soils shrink significantly during dry summers.

Deep London clay deposits make Brentwood a subsidence hotspot, particularly in areas with mature trees near properties.

Signs of Subsidence to Watch For

If you notice any of the following at your Brentwood property, it's worth getting a professional opinion:

Diagonal Wall Cracks

Cracks wider than 3mm, especially around doors and windows, that grow over time.

Sticking Doors & Windows

Doors and windows that suddenly become difficult to open or close.

Rippling Wallpaper

Wallpaper wrinkling or creasing without dampness — a sign of wall movement.

Uneven Floors

Floors that slope or feel uneven underfoot, indicating foundation movement.
