Crack Monitoring

Crack monitoring is carried out on new & old properties, both domestic & commercial. The monitoring of cracks is required when:

• A structural report has identified serious structural cracks due to subsidence or settlement.


• An insurance company requests monitoring of cracks in a potential claim.


• An owner of property requires checking of old cracks for peace of mind.


• Where development work is taken place adjoining a property(ie), to check if damage is been caused to the property by the development works.

Crack monitoring requires an initial structural report & subsequent installation of crack monitors on the defects. The monitors need to be inspected every three months & should be left in position for period of two years.

The cost of the structural inspection & report starts at €320.00 for a three bedroom house. The crack monitors cost €125.00 each to install. The three monthly visit is €225.00. The cost may vary with regard to location & the extent of cracking to the property. The purchaser will be briefed after the inspection has been carried out & the report & crack monitors are normally completed & installed within two working days.
