Types of Underpinning

There are various methods used for foundation underpinning, which will depend on the style of the home and location. Our experts will determine exactly which type of underpinning method should be used. They will design and execute the most practical way to handle your foundation repairs. One method often used involves the use of caissons and grade beams. We find this to be one of our most successful methods.

When Underpinning is Necessary

Underpinning is necessary when the home's current foundation can no longer support the home. Therefore, this method might be required in the following circumstances:

 

  • Soil changes – When the soil that supports the home's foundation changes.
  • Inadequate soil properties – If the type of soil properties were not understood at the time of the original design for the home’s foundation, it may no longer be enough to support the structure.
  • Structure usage – The way the building/home is being used changes after being renovated.
  • Natural disasters – If a flood, drought, earthquake, or other natural disaster occurs, it can make the structure unstable.
