Your trusted partner in handling subsidence insurance claims in Newcastle
We understand how distressing subsidence damage can be, and we’re here to help you navigate the complexities of insurance claims to restore your peace of mind and your property.
What is Subsidence?
Subsidence occurs when the ground beneath your home sinks, causing the foundations to shift and potentially leading to significant structural damage. Common signs include:
- Cracks in walls, particularly around doors and windows
- Doors and windows that stick or do not open properly
- Sloping floors or noticeable changes in floor level
- Gaps between walls and ceilings or floors
Why Newcastle Homeowners are at Risk
Newcastle and the surrounding areas are prone to subsidence due to several factors:
- Soil Type: The region’s clay-rich soil is particularly susceptible to shrinking and swelling with changes in moisture levels.
- Weather Conditions: Periods of prolonged drought or heavy rainfall can exacerbate subsidence issues.
- Tree Roots: Large trees near properties can absorb significant amounts of water, contributing to soil shrinkage.

Newcastle 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.
