Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We take a structured set of measurements across each accessible room to identify consistent slopes versus isolated low/high points. This matters in Croydon South homes with mixed flooring systems, where an extension can sit differently to the original structure.
Results are presented against a consistent datum so you can see where changes occur and how they relate across the home. This makes it easier to discuss findings with a builder, engineer, or restumping contractor without guesswork.
We highlight sharp changes near doorways, hall openings, wet areas, and join lines between old and new sections. These transition zones often reveal movement, poor support, or changes in subfloor construction.
Where patterns suggest likely contributors—such as subfloor moisture, inadequate supports, or settlement—we include practical commentary. The goal is to connect the numbers to what you may need to investigate next.
The report provides a measurable baseline you can use during purchase discussions or to obtain accurate repair quotes. Trades can scope work more precisely when floor variation is documented rather than described as ‘a bit sloped’.
If you’re planning new flooring, cabinetry, or structural works, the readings help avoid costly rework caused by out-of-level surfaces. If you’re monitoring an issue, repeating the survey over time allows meaningful comparison.

Yes. Many Croydon South properties include timber floors that can show springiness or gradual slopes as supports age or moisture conditions change beneath the home. A Digital Floor Level Survey measures the floor across multiple points, showing whether variation is consistent through the house or concentrated in specific rooms. That detail helps you decide if the issue is cosmetic, maintenance-related, or worth further structural assessment.
It can. Join lines between an older section and a newer extension are common places for level differences to appear. The survey maps readings through transition areas such as hallways, openings, and changes in flooring type. If one section is settling or built on a different support system, the pattern of readings often makes that relationship clear and easier to scope for rectification.
We measure accessible internal floor areas across living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and other safe-to-access spaces, taking enough points to show patterns rather than isolated numbers. Wet areas may be limited by finishes and access, but we still capture nearby reference readings to show how levels behave around bathrooms, laundries and kitchens, where movement can sometimes present differently.
They can. Poor stormwater control or inconsistent drainage can contribute to changing ground moisture around footings or subfloor areas, which may be reflected in floor level variation over time. While a Digital Floor Level Survey doesn’t diagnose drainage on its own, it provides objective measurements that can support further checks, such as subfloor moisture assessment, site drainage review, or advice from a structural professional.
Use the mapped readings to ask targeted questions and obtain realistic quotes. If the survey shows a consistent slope, you can discuss likely causes and what rectification typically involves. If it shows sharp changes in specific areas, you can focus follow-up inspections where it matters most. The report also gives you clear documentation to support price negotiations or special conditions before you commit.
