Lowering of basement

Homeowners may opt for the alternative to increase their living space, by utilizing the basement in creating more height clearance. This is typically performed by;

– Underpinning: which is essentially done by working in small controlled stages, through excavating the soil beneath the foundation and pouring new wall footings at lower depths, while safely supporting the above structure.

– – Bench-pinning: which allows to construct a new perimeter foundation, toward the inside of the home to a new depth, without needing to excavate beneath the existing footings.

– Our engineers will provide the necessary measures to make sure that such a large undertaking is done in a controlled and safe manner.
