We've delivered subsidence repair programmes for housing associations across the North West, the Midlands and South Wales — typically without a single decant.

Subsidence in social housing stock is rarely a single property's problem. It tends to cluster across a row, an era or a particular soil zone — and the natural response, full underpinning, is hard to fund and harder to live through.
We work with asset managers and their consulting engineers to map clusters across the stock, prioritise by risk, and deliver resin treatment as a phased programme. Treatment of an individual property typically takes half a day. Tenants stay at home throughout.
One‑off property, fully scoped and quoted. Survey within a week, works within four.
We sit on your responsive repairs / DLO framework with agreed rates and lead times.
We deliver a multi‑property programme against a schedule of rates, reporting monthly.
Figures are illustrative of a representative West Riding programme delivered for a regional housing association.
A cluster of subsidence claims across mid‑1930s social housing terraces in the West Riding. Insurers had quoted full underpinning across 14 properties at an average of £42,000 each — and the tenants were refusing to decant.
Zero tenant displacement. Works had to happen with occupants in‑situ, in‑hours, while keeping noise and dust to a minimum.
We surveyed the entire cluster against a single laser baseline, mapped the affected soil column under each property, and delivered resin injection treatment across six consecutive weekends with two crews working in parallel.
14 properties stabilised. Zero decants. Total programme cost came in roughly 64% below the underpinning quote, and the carbon footprint reduction was reported by their asset team as ≈ 95% versus the original specification.
No excavation, no skips, no mess. Most jobs are completed in 1–2 days on site.
16mm injection tubes, laser‑level monitoring, depth controlled to the millimetre.
Structural resin reaches load‑bearing strength in minutes, not weeks.
Re‑bears the soil column beneath the footing — the cause, not just the cracks.
No party‑wall declaration, no neighbour‑facing works, no insurance flag.
Every project is backed by our written 10‑year stabilisation warranty.
