New Mining and Subsidence Report from Landmark.

Landmark are launching a new Mining and Subsidence Report to update and replace two existing reports. The new report will combine and replace the Homecheck Ground Stability Report and the Subsidence Risk Rating Reports. The price will stay the same as the old Ground Stability Report that it replaces (£20 + vat).

Subsidence and other types of ground instability can cause extensive damage so it should always be considered as part of the conveyancing process.

As well as identifying any natural and man-made hazards in the area, the report identifies insurance claims that are a result of damage caused to nearby properties from subsidence – ‘real life’ evidence of the potential hazards identified in the report. This new report is available from the 1st September.

New Landmark Homecheck Mining & Subsidence Report.

Avoid that sinking feeling you’ve missed a key risk

Search Alerts will warn you if a potential mining or subsidence risk has been detected when you enter an address and the appropriate report will be recommended.

The Mining and Subsidence Report provides you with a clear professional opinion and next steps, allowing you to copy and paste into client documentation.

Ground Stability Hazards

The report is split into two main sections. The first identifies the main types of hazards that could affect a property such as former mining, former brine extraction and salt mining, landfill and other infilled land, and natural ground instability hazards.

Subsidence Insurance Claims

A risk rating based on the number of valid subsidence insurance claims in the property’s postcode is provided.

Claims made to the Coal Authority associated with suspected damage to property from coal mining in the area are also included. This feature provides evidence of the actual impact of a risk, thus providing a more complete picture than hazard data alone..
