We specialize in underpinning to reinforce and stabilize your home's foundation. Our team ensures a safe and effective process to expand your basement space or secure an aging foundation.

Basement Underpinning

Although strong at first, your foundation slowly loses structural integrity as time goes on and needs to be reinforced. Our team is happy to provide you with professional underpinning and basement-lowering services allowing you to reinforce the foundation and increase the ceiling height of your basement. Additionally, you can avoid foundation settlement brought on by aging structures or shifting soil, guaranteeing the integrity of your house for the long run.

Bench Footing

Another option for lowering your basement is called bench footing. This service offers a practical and cost-effective alternative. Bench footing involves creating a ledge or bench along the basement walls. This adds stability and increases the ceiling height. This process is particularly ideal for partial basement adjustments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Although it isn’t always obvious, having uneven floors or seeing cracks is usually a sign of considerable wear that needs to be addressed for safety reasons. These cracks on the surface indicate that the issue might have been progressing for some time and the best course of action is to call professionals to assess your foundation.

In most cases, yes, although it depends on the amount of tear and the overall scope of the project. If you can ignore the inconvenience of noise and vibration during the repair process, you should be able to live in your house while the work takes place. 

Restoring structural integrity directly correlates to an increase in house value as it adds safety to the house boosting marketability and price.

If the moisture results from the lack of structural integrity, then a fixed and newly reinforced foundation will protect against leaks. However, certain methods for waterproofing need to be installed to resolve all issues.

Our team will come to your house to assess the situation and determine what needs to be done for your foundation, how much that would take and the cost. This usually depends on the soil, the overall condition as well as what you desire to be done, such as increasing space or further reinforcing the floors.
