Subsidence in Cardiff
Subsidence, heave and ground movement can affect a property's structural integrity, requiring residents to relocate during investigation and underpinning works.
Cardiff is Wales' capital city with a growing residential sector. The city's proximity to the River Taff and the Severn Estuary creates specific flood risks, while older housing stock in inner suburbs can be susceptible to fire and structural issues.
Temporary Accommodation After Subsidence
Subsidence claims involve a lengthy investigation and repair process. Properties showing signs of ground movement must be monitored over time before remedial works such as underpinning can begin. During the investigation and repair phases, residents may need to relocate for safety reasons or to allow works to proceed.
Key Challenges
Subsidence claims are typically among the longest-running insurance claims. The monitoring period alone can take 12 months or more. Residents may need accommodation for extended periods, requiring longer-term housing solutions.
