BASEMENT IMPACT ASSESSMENTS

Whether it be a large commercial project or a domestic home extension, JMS have over 20 years experience of designing basements for all applications nationwide and particularly in the London area.

As well as being able to provide robust, cost-effective design solutions, Substructural can assist from the beginning of a project, producing Basement Impact Assessments (BIA’s) to help obtain planning consent and get construction started.

The criteria set out by the planning authorities for BIA’s is often extensive and will involve a detailed examination of the ground conditions, groundwater, potential ground movement and the impact upon the surrounding area.

JMS have the knowledge and experience to address those requirements within a detailed report, ensuring that basement proposals are viable and constructed safely.
