UNDERPINNING

When it makes sense to dig down to get additional height in your basement, we bring our unique approach to underpinning. We support your house as if we were lifting it, then utilize shoring techniques and custom pipe jacks to ensure the stability of your foundation while undermining the existing walls.

Shoring and bracing of foundation walls during underpinning process

A good example of the shoring and bracing required to preserve the existing walls during the underpinning process.

Pipe jacks support the existing foundation wall when excavating the entire length at once.

The steel brackets and steel rods hold the cracked foundation together when undermined.

Yet another way to support the existing foundation wall during the underpinning process. The shoring posts and beams carry the weight of the structure during construction.
