Woolway Lee & Partners Limited FAQs

What is mundic concrete and why is testing necessary in Devon and Cornwall?

Mundic is a Cornish slang term for poor concrete, often containing sulphides from mining waste that can cause disintegration over time. Woolway Lee & Partners explain that lenders now require concrete screening tests for properties with concrete built before 1950 (or 1960 in South East Cornwall) before a mortgage can be approved.

How does Woolway Lee & Partners conduct their concrete (mundic) tests?

Woolway Lee & Partners remove 50mm diameter concrete samples by drilling from various parts of the property, including external walls, footings, first floor, and any party or relevant internal walls. These samples are then sent to a petrographer for aggregate identification, and the drilled holes are backfilled.

Are the concrete tests carried out by Woolway Lee & Partners accepted by lenders, and what is the starting cost?

Yes, Woolway Lee & Partners carry out their concrete tests in accordance with current RICS guidelines, ensuring they are accepted by all lenders. The current cost for their concrete tests starts from £450.00 + VAT.
