What we check on a property in Eastern Green
Every quote starts with a survey. These are the things we look at on building work in Eastern Green, and why each one changes the recommendation.
Whether Building Control is engaged
We establish at the outset whether the work is notifiable and who the Building Control body will be, so inspections are built into the programme rather than chased at the end.
Access for materials and waste
Whether there is side access, where a skip can stand and how far materials have to be carried all affect the programme and the price. It is better settled at survey than discovered on day one.
What can wait
Part of the survey is saying which items are urgent and which are not. We would rather hand over a prioritised list than quote for everything at once and have the important work deferred on cost.
Damp-proof course position and bridging
We find the damp-proof course and check whether raised ground, a new path, render or debris in the cavity is bridging it. That single detail explains a great deal of the damp we are called to look at.
Wall construction: solid or cavity
Solid and cavity walls behave completely differently for damp, insulation and fixings. Establishing which one we are dealing with, and whether a cavity is clear or filled, changes nearly every recommendation.
Mortar type and condition
We check whether the existing mortar is lime or cement and how deeply it has failed. Repointing an old wall in the wrong mix damages the brick, so identifying what is there comes before pricing the work.

Building Services in Eastern Green — your questions answered
Still have a question? Our local team is happy to help — no pressure, no jargon.
Speak to us today0786 5778332Do you work on properties near Woodlands Academy?
Yes. Woodlands Academy is one of the landmarks we use to describe where we work in Eastern Green, and we take on building jobs throughout the surrounding streets. Access and parking get checked at survey, so the quote fits the property.
Do you only work in Eastern Green, or the surrounding streets too?
Both. Work in Eastern Green usually takes us into Bannerbrook Park (about 0.7 miles away), Mount Nod (about 0.7 miles away), Allesley Green (about 0.7 miles away) and Tile Hill (about 0.9 miles away) as well, and we quote for all of them on the same terms. There is no boundary line that changes the price.
What is spalling brickwork, and can it be repaired?
Spalling is when the face of a brick blows off, usually because water got in and froze, or because an impermeable pointing or coating trapped moisture. Isolated bricks can be cut out and replaced with a match. Where a whole elevation has gone, the realistic options are brick slips, a sympathetic render, or accepting the appearance. Either way the cause has to be dealt with first.
Can I take out a load-bearing wall?
Usually yes, with the right beam and the right support. The sequence matters: a structural engineer calculates the beam and the bearings, Building Control is notified, temporary propping goes in before anything is cut, and the padstones and beam go in before the props come out. Anyone offering to knock a structural wall out without calculations is a reason to stop the conversation.
Will you work alongside my own trades?
Yes, and it is common on renovations where people already have an electrician or a plumber they trust. It needs sequencing agreed upfront so first fix does not get plastered over and nobody is standing waiting. We are happy to coordinate, but we are clear about where our responsibility ends when work is split.
There are cracks in my wall. Should I be worried?
Most are not structural. Fine cracks at the junction of different materials, or above openings, are usually thermal or shrinkage movement. The ones that warrant investigation are diagonal or stepped, wider at one end, wider than about 3mm, visible inside and out in the same place, or growing. We will say honestly which category a crack falls into, and recommend an engineer where it genuinely needs one.
