The Range Croydon homes often sit on sloping blocks and reactive clay soils, which can show up as uneven floors or sticky doors. A digital floor level survey measures the fall precisely so you can separate normal settlement from movement that needs attention.

Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We take a structured set of readings across each accessible room to create a floor level profile. This shows where the floor falls, where it changes direction, and whether there are abrupt variations that can indicate localised movement rather than general site slope.
Beyond simple slope, we check for twisting across the building footprint (one corner higher/lower than the opposite). Twist patterns can align with footing changes, drainage issues, or varying support conditions and are important for diagnosing what type of movement may be occurring.
We focus on junctions where original homes meet additions, where floor systems change (stumps to slab, timber to tiled areas), and near wet areas. These are common points for differential settlement and often explain cracking or uneven finishes in The Range Croydon homes.
For raised timber floors, we relate level changes to likely bearer/joist lines and support points. This helps distinguish between overall footing movement and localised issues such as stump deterioration, packing failure, or subfloor moisture contributing to sag.
We compare the level profile with on-site observations such as door operation, cracking patterns, and skirting gaps. Linking measurements to symptoms makes the report more actionable for buyers, owners, and trades, rather than a set of numbers on its own.
You receive a report that explains the level results in plain language, highlights priority areas to monitor, and outlines when to consider further assessment (for example, structural engineering advice) based on the severity and pattern of the measured variation.

Not always. Many The Range Croydon homes are designed to suit the natural fall of the land, including split-level layouts. A digital floor level survey separates a consistent, expected gradient from sharp changes in level, twist, or localised dips. Those patterns are more suggestive of movement or support issues than a uniform slope that matches the site.
You’ll receive a detailed report showing the measured floor level variations across accessible areas, presented in a way that’s easy to interpret. We explain where the floor falls, where it changes abruptly, and what the overall pattern suggests. The report also notes relevant on-site observations and provides practical guidance on monitoring or next steps if needed.
Yes. Sticking doors, popping cornices, and cracked tiles can be early indicators of movement, even when external cracking is minimal. A digital survey provides objective data to confirm whether the floor plane is changing and whether the issue is localised to a particular zone (such as near wet areas) or spread across the footprint.
They can be. Older raised floors can show level variation from a mix of factors such as stump movement, packing compression, timber deflection, or subfloor moisture. In The Range Croydon, site drainage and seasonal moisture changes can also influence performance. The benefit of a digital survey is it maps the shape of the floor so you can pinpoint whether it’s a broad slope, a sag along a line, or a localised dip.
Time on site depends on the size and access of the property, but most surveys are completed within a typical inspection appointment window. Clear access to rooms and floor areas helps us take consistent readings. If there are heavy rugs, stored items, or locked rooms, letting us know beforehand ensures we can capture enough data points for a reliable level profile.
