FAQS
Frequently Asked Questions
We offer a variety of foundation types, including slab foundations, crawl space foundations, basement foundation options, and concrete wall foundations. Each is designed to meet specific structural and climate considerations.
Timing depends on factors like foundation type, excavation requirements, and climate. Typically, a concrete slab foundation for residential projects takes about one to two weeks, but extensive excavation and complex designs may require more time.
Foundation cost is influenced by factors like site conditions, foundation complexity, and any added insulation requirements or drainage systems. We provide clear estimates tailored to your specific project needs.
Yes, we provide foundation repair services for issues like structural cracks, water buildup, or signs of foundation problems due to expansive clay soils or poor soil conditions. Our experts assess the damage and recommend effective solutions, including concrete patching materials if needed.
Common indicators include visible cracks, settling near ground level, or doors and windows that stick. If you notice any of these, contact a foundation expert to evaluate the issue.
Regular inspections for cracks and drainage maintenance are key. Ensure clear access for any needed repairs, check for water around the foundation, and maintain a proper vapour barrier in crawl spaces.
Waterproofing is highly recommended, especially if your property sits near a high water table or experiences frequent rainfall. It can prevent water buildup and protect against damage to structures over time.
Yes, we handle a range of projects, from deep foundations to T-shaped footings, accommodating both cold climates and warmer climates. Our team considers all engineering requirements and insulation needs for a stable and energy-efficient structural base.
Our team focuses on precision, durability, and meeting specific climate and soil needs. From using effective admixtures to integrating steel reinforcement, we prioritize sturdy construction for long-lasting results.
Grade foundations, often constructed at ground level, are typically used in stable soil conditions. They provide efficient support for concrete block foundations, minimizing excavation needs and lowering overall construction complexity.
Concrete block foundations are strong and flexible, accommodating various construction requirements, including earth floors and crawl space floors. They work well in most climates and are popular for their durability and ease of repair.
A French drain redirects water away from the foundation, helping prevent water buildup that could compromise the foundation wall and plumbing pipes. Proper drainage systems like French drains and drain tiles are vital for maintaining a dry, stable foundation.
Yes, foundations can be customized for energy efficiency with materials like concrete panels, smart barriers, and additional insulation. These additions can reduce heat loss, enhance building efficiency, and support green building goals in both warmer and colder climates.
Concrete footings are essential for distributing the building’s weight and maintaining structural integrity. They’re particularly important for deeper footings in colder climates, ensuring stability and durability across the entire foundation.
