Hi All,
In the process of buying a property which requires full internal refurb. Having a Home Buyers Survey completed on the 15th Dec and as the place is empty went and had a further look without the agent hanging over my shoulder!
There is a single storey kitchen extension to the rear, approx. 8x8 with a pitched roof. On this further inspection I saw that on one of the walls where the extension meets the main wall there is a fairly large crack (photo attached). Its been ‘masticed’ at some stage and looks fairly old. Thinking maybe movement or not tied in correctly but I am certainly no builder so wouldn’t really know! The crack appears to be just on the one side of the extension.
Anyone any thoughts? Obviously will get the surveyor to have a good luck at it but would welcome any thoughts from anyone who has dealt with a similar problem. Thanks all, P.
