"Greater London includes around 3150000 houses, with many in and around Bethnal Green. Types of property range from recently built to older homes. That said, Bethnal Green-area experience is but one aspect of the issue when Property Surveyors investigate a property. There are multiple other local problems, and which warrant thorough examination prior to purchase. Some survey concerns in the local area relate to cellar dampness, clay soil heave, noise from Heathrow, highly damaging House Longhorn Beetles, parapet wall upkeep, Portland stone lapsed maintenance and local planning considerations. (A number of these are mentioned below). If you are considering a home in the region, we always recommend that you get a Home Buyers Survey to avoid costly and disruptive maintenance work.

Your RICS Surveyor will confirm that properties built on these soils are prone to foundation movement. Some types of clay soil can be problematic for properties built on it, as it is water absorbent. The soil changes form and volume, depending on moisture content, and is capable of damaging foundations. During a Bethnal Green Home Survey, the Surveyor will remain vigilant for any defects associated with clay soil.
This stone features in the construction of many local buildings. Portland Stone was in use as far back as Roman times. Cement render may have been used on outside walls, obscuring the stone. This rendering may itself create issues for homeowners. Algae growth is only really an issue if it forms on paving slabs, which can become slippery. Damp and other moisture issues could be accelerated and worsened by rendering over Portland stone walls.
This species is noteworthy in certain areas as it causes rapid deterioration by eating away timbers internally. The marks this beetle creates look similar to those caused by woodworm but are larger in radius. The House Longhorn Beetle can be very destructive to homes, and can infest most softwoods. Older homes are often immune, having used hardwood timber in their construction.
