    Hi just a quick question hopefully someone help. Mods please move if I am in wrong forum.
    Looking for some info about quarries rock blasting and monitoring nearby houses during the blast.
    My mam lives quite close to a quarry and wasn't officially told that they would be blasting stone.
    Today a guy arrived at the house and told her he needed to attach a monitor to the house as the would be blasting in 15 mins time. She said it felt like she was in an earthquake that the floors and fixtures shook.
    So I guess we are wondering could this damage structure and foundations of the house.
    Thank you in advance.
