3:17 The cracking and subsidence and spalled (crumbling) bricks are caused by that outside tap allowing the ground to stay constantly moist in that area. As there's no drainage beneath it so it saturated the soil and on winter causes frost heave of the saturated ground. It's why everything originating around that tap is knackered.

I think I remember you lot from the fast show.

Mostly looking for more work.....I think!!.....50% correct.

[@sandeepathwal4188]

Can u make a video detailing it, please good sir?

[@xboxgamer7453]

Just get a Structural Engineer they know best

[@alanyoung7532]

In the first instance get yourself a copy of Building Research Establishment Digest 251 (Assessment of damage in low-rise buildings). This way you will be ahead of the game and far less easy to fool.

What further investigation is needed

[@alanyoung7532]

In the first instance get yourself a copy of Building Research Establishment Digest 251 (Assessment of damage in low-rise buildings). It ends by advising that “The only certain way of confirming the progression of damage is to take a series of measurements with time.” Monitoring.

Good advice good video

[@alanyoung7532]

No real diagnosis here I am afraid little mention the importance of establishing progression. According to BRE Digest 251 “It is the cause of the damage and whether it will be progressive that is of great concern.” All a bit superficial.

Should you trust a gentleman surveyor in suit and tie dressed for the boardroom . Unlikely to get down and dirty to search and probe ? Just an observation.

Would trust this man who clearly knows his stuff than the cowboys wearing the right ‘outfit’

[@barrypeers8665]

extensive knowledge from your books and guidelines you follow each case should be individual not based on area faults what is the cause a nd repair 😂😂😂😂😂😂 structural engineers do the investigating . do not trust these legal robbers at all

[@quickreviewchannel6931]

Trees should never be cut down due to artificial buildings, the building should be removed instead or fixed as trees are our life support on this planet and should have rights where humans are not allowed to remove them by law!

[@rsubrai]

trees should not be plant near the house building in first place

[@canalboating]

Trees should not be planted in urban locations full stop

[@sithukyaw9019]

Why can’t British people make decent KZbin vids like americans

[@andrewjones9850]

God damn hot dog sucker!

[@aaronvanschijndel2150]

Haha I’d advise getting someone who knows what there talking about to look at it
