Agent Note

Previous structural movement, mainly resulting in cosmetic internal and external cracking, was caused by oak tree roots from a neighbouring property damaging drains at 30 Hillfield Road and eroding surrounding ground. The tree was removed, drains repaired, and the property monitored by Global 360 for three years with no further movement recorded. Remedial works, including brick stitching and redecoration, were completed thereafter. A cosa certificate was issued in December 2023 and the Direct Line claim closed on 08/01/2024.
