Reason: clay shrinkage subsidence damage to rear extension at subject property, T1 is 5.5m from rear of building.Informative A: due to rear foundations below NHBC guidance, underlying high plasticity clay soil on a steeply sloping site, and Honey Locust an NHBC low water demand tree, it is unlikely that the tree is the main contolling factor in the structural issue and other mitigations should be considered such as removing impermeable surfacing, enabling rainwater downpipes to discharge into raingardens and soakaways, and underpinning.Informative B: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.
