Ground Engineering Specialists in Letchworth
Professional ground engineering, structural repair, and foundation solutions for residential and commercial properties across Letchworth.
Understanding Letchworth's Ground Conditions
The world's first garden city was built on chalk and boulder clay soils of North Hertfordshire. Many of the original Edwardian properties may have foundations that need modern reinforcement.
Local Geology
Chalk with overlying boulder clay and glacial deposits. The garden city's mature tree planting can contribute to clay-related subsidence.
Moisture & Drainage
Seasonal moisture changes cause ground movement beneath foundations. Understanding local drainage patterns is essential for effective long-term solutions.
Vegetation Impact
Mature trees and hedgerows influence soil moisture levels, which can affect foundation stability — particularly in clay-rich areas of Hertfordshire.
