Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have a foundation problem?
Diagonal cracks in walls, sticking doors/windows, and uneven floors are common signs. We offer free inspections.

What is underpinning?
Underpinning strengthens and deepens an existing foundation by extending it to more stable soil.

Is foundation repair disruptive?
Most work is done externally with minimal disruption to your daily life.

Do you provide an engineer’s report?
Yes. Every foundation project is assessed and signed off by a registered structural engineer.

How long does foundation repair take?
Simple crack repairs take 2–3 days. Underpinning projects typically take 2–4 weeks.

Will my insurance cover foundation repairs?
It depends on your policy. We provide detailed reports that support insurance claims.
