Your 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. If conditions are too damp, the clay soil could force the property upward, damaging the foundations. During the Home Buyers Survey in Guildford, your Chartered Surveyor will be on the look out for cracks and other evidence of heave or settlement. If these are suspected, a special dip test survey might be advised, which essentially requires digging up the garden. Despite these problems, clay soil is a very suitable material for brick manufacture.
