Sell house quickly due to subsidence

Subsidence sometimes produces so much stress and concern, that you just may want to sell house quickly. Especially if your insurance has confirmed that they are not prepared or willing to cover the cost of rectifying the problem.

Subsidence can happen at any time and to any property no matter what the age. You often find people have small cracks on their internal walls or ceiling, but most of the time you will generally find that they are plaster cracks, especially in new build properties. If your property has recently been re-plastered, this is a very good sign or indication that this is what is commonly know as a plaster crack. This is normally caused by turning the heating up too high too early.

When ever a room or a ceiling has been re-plastered it is very important to try and allow it to dry under normal conditions i.e. natural conditions. But if you are certain that you do have plaster cracks, it is nothing to be concerned about, and the best solution to solve the problem is to rake out the crack, refill, sand and the paint.

Subsidence appears with a vengeance against your property i.e. you can have very large cracks internally and externally, even through the frames of the windows. If your property is terrace, end of terrace or semi detached it doesn’t matter it can still happen. The reason this occurs is simply because you have movement in the ground/earth that surrounds part of the foundations of your property.

An example of a problem that we have recently had subsidence occur, is where a large tree approximately 15 feet away from the front of the house has died and then been removed by the council, and obviously the roots to this tree had also died and the large dead roots had started to disintegrate. Over the previous years the large roots had worked their way under the foundations of the property, and when the roots started to disintegrate they caused the property, which is mid terrace, to start to subside, which produced large cracks to run down the front of the building.
