ANOTHER week when the question has to be asked: “How often does this happen in the Ribble Valley?” . The Royal Institution of


Heatwaves can damage homes


PROPERTY MEWS compiled by Tim Procter


Chartered Surveyors points out that the recent heat wave has seen temperatures reach record highs which could lead to households suffering major lows - as their houses crack under the strain. The surveyors are urging


house-owners to be vigilant as the sustained hot weather can lead to subsidence caused by the loss of water from


shrinkable subsoil. This natural phenomenon,


brought about by a period of high temperatures and low rainfall, is a major threat to properties built with shallow foundations. This applies especially to


pre-1970 houses and particu­ larly those dating back to the Edwardian and Victorian


" T T *

eras. The problem of subsi­ dence arises when the hot spell breaks and rain causes the soil to expand. The expansion is rarely uniform throughout the soil and as a result the ground experiences “differential heave”, which can cause buildings to move and crack. Trees close to houses are


also a threat as they take water from the soil through their roots and increase any shrinkage caused by hot temperatures. Action to permanently


correct subsidence is drastic and involves the deepening of the foundations in a process known as underpin­ ning. The mere fact that a


house has been underpinned can cause problems when the owner comes to sell, unless it has been carried out by a reputable building company. On finding a crack, house­


holders should immediately notify their insurance com­ pany, or their landlord, and make a claim. However the process can


become stressful as the claim may well involve’several par­ ties of different professions. Whether the general experi­ ence nationally that there is often little co-ordination between all the parties is seen locally is doubtful - in the Ribble Valley, hopeful­ ly, folk get their act togeth­ er!
