The West Country has an estimated 11,000 properties built with mundic, Mundic being the broad term used to describe concrete manufactured from mine waste. Pyrites in this material can, when dissolved in water (e.g. in damp conditions). Ask your Chartered Surveyor to estimate the scale of the repairs necessary, as even quite small concentrations of mundic in footings will mean underpinning is needed. After a fall in value of around 33% in many cases, compared to equivalent mundic-free property, purchasers should seriously consider if the lower value justifies the considerable upkeep costs.

Surveys in Exmouth often identify houses with slate walls. Slate was a cheap local building material solution. People usually don't know about the slate wall construction until they try and drive anail or screw which is very hard to do with slate.Slate has excellent water repelling characteristics meaning it is the most common material for roofing tiles.
