This house has never had this problem before. We have stayed in the house for almost 15 years.
But recently we have been noticing the house shaking quite a lot. Sometimes I can feel it when I am sitting on the chair doing some computing. But in other times when it is bad, I can see the pile of books on the desk shaking by some vibration coming through from the construction work across the main road about 200 yard - 400 yard away from the house.
The construction site has demolished the large old commercial buildings recently using buldozers and craines heavy machines, and the army of large lorries are taking away the debris day and nights. The work seems as if it will continue for many months for rebuidling something on the site.
But is this normal? Are we suppose to have the house shaken like this due to the construction works across the road? Could it damage the house structure in any way? Do we need to report and seek advice on this? I am not sure.
The house shaking gets quiet when it is dark and night times, but from the early morning till the late afternoon, it can get quite bad. Some days are worse than other days. I wonder if you have had any of this type of experience in your own house, and how you dealt with the problem. cheers.
