Upper Morden evidence: later semis and garden-access terraces (Morden Building Pathology)
Morden's building stock of 1930s suburban (in Morden) (in Morden) housing and new development presents a wide range (in Morden) (in Morden) of pathological challenges; on Morden pathology instructions, dew-point loggers (in Morden) in Morden track relative humidity; on Morden pathology instructions, dew-point loggers in Morden track relative humidity. Our building pathology team investigates (in Morden) (in Morden) the causes of building defects (in Morden) (in Morden) across Morden.
Common defects we investigate in Morden include subsidence in 1930s (in Morden) semi-detached houses on London (in Morden) (in Morden) clay, flat-roof failures on (in Morden) (in Morden) garage conversions and rear extensions, failed wall ties in (in Morden) post-war cavity construction; within Morden period rooms, bressummer bearings across Morden and plaster ceilings are appraised; within Morden period rooms, bressummer bearings across Morden and plaster ceilings are appraised. Systematic investigation of damp problems (in Morden) (in Morden) in Morden properties, distinguishing between rising damp, (in Morden) (in Morden) penetrating damp and condensation to (in Morden) (in Morden) ensure the correct remedy is (in Morden) (in Morden) applied.

EWS1 advice and external wall (in Morden) (in Morden) review for Morden property; on Morden timber inspections, resistance drilling in Morden checks concealed joist ends; where Morden bays distort, drainage cameras in Morden clarify foundation causation. Assessment of cracking and structural (in Morden) (in Morden) movement in buildings across Morden, determining whether movement is historic (in Morden) (in Morden) and stable or progressive and (in Morden) (in Morden) requiring intervention; where Morden bays distort, drainage cameras in Morden clarify foundation causation.
Investigation of timber decay including (in Morden) (in Morden) wet rot, dry rot and (in Morden) (in Morden) insect attack in Morden's period properties, with recommendations for (in Morden) (in Morden) treatment and repair; for Morden parapets, coping joints across Morden and asphalt upstands are inspected.

Trace the garden route through a terrace arch (Morden Building Pathology)
Defect diagnosis in Morden should start from the construction (in Morden) (in Morden) on the ground — 1930s (in Morden) semi-detached houses, post-war (in Morden) housing, new-build apartments within 1930s suburban housing and new development around Morden Hall Park, London Road, Aberconway Road; in Morden ground-floor flats, paving bridging in Morden against damp courses is measured. Morden Hall Park is a National Trust property creating a sensitive heritage setting; Merton Council has several conservation area (in Morden) (in Morden) designations and applies Article 4 (in Morden) directions in some residential streets; in Morden ground-floor flats, paving bridging (in Morden) in Morden against damp courses is measured.
The local condition issues described (in Morden) (in Morden) elsewhere on this page common (in Morden) (in Morden) in Morden property often have more than (in Morden) (in Morden) one plausible explanation, and building (in Morden) (in Morden) pathology is precisely the discipline (in Morden) (in Morden) of ruling those explanations in (in Morden) (in Morden) or out with evidence - moisture (in Morden) (in Morden) readings, material analysis, structural monitoring - (in Morden) (in Morden) before a remedial specification is (in Morden) (in Morden) written; across Morden properties, RICS defect schedules in Morden guide targeted repairs. On Morden pathology investigations, that context shapes (in Morden) (in Morden) what remedial options are realistic: (in Morden) (in Morden) a diagnosis that points to (in Morden) (in Morden) an intervention needing heritage consent (in Morden) (in Morden) has to be scoped with (in Morden) (in Morden) that constraint in mind from (in Morden) (in Morden) the outset, not discovered after (in Morden) (in Morden) the report is written; across Morden properties, RICS defect schedules in Morden guide targeted repairs.
