We specialise in helping homeowners in Anerley claim on their insurance for subsidence-related damage, ensuring you receive the compensation needed for essential repairs.
What Causes Subsidence in Anerley?
Properties in Anerley may be at risk of subsidence due to several factors, including:
- Clay Soil: Anerley has areas of clay-rich soil that shrink and shift depending on moisture levels, leading to foundation movement.
- Tree Roots: Trees and vegetation near your home can absorb large amounts of water from the soil, causing it to dry out and sink.
- Water Leaks: Leaking underground pipes can weaken the soil beneath your foundations, making your property unstable.
- Older Properties: Many properties in Anerley were built with shallow foundations, making them more susceptible to ground movement.
Common signs of subsidence include cracks in walls, doors and windows sticking, and sloping floors. If you notice these issues, it’s crucial to seek professional advice.

Anerley case studies that speak volumes
Our panel solicitors have a wealth of experience in dealing with subsidence claims, and their success stories highlight the importance of expert legal support.
A Battle of Stability
Imagine submitting a claim only for the insurer to drag their feet for six years, all while insisting your property merely needs a fresh coat of paint. This was the reality for one homeowner who, upon refusal to settle for less, partnered with our panel solicitors.
Through legal action and undeniable expert evidence, the homeowner saw justice as the insurer was compelled to pay over £200,000 for necessary demolition and reconstruction.
Root Barrier Resistance
Another homeowner faced acknowledgment of their subsidence issue by their insurer but was met with a cost-cutting solution—a root barrier.
Expert advice revealed the true necessity of underpinning, a stance the insurer refused to accept until legal proceedings forced their hand, resulting in a payout exceeding £300,000.
