What defects are common in Yaxley properties?
Common defects include structural movement from Oxford Clay shrinkage — particularly noticeable during dry summers — damp in older village properties with solid wall construction, ageing roof coverings and chimney stacks in period cottages, and new build snagging on the expansion developments. Our surveyors understand the fen-edge geology and building stock well.
