Underpinning and Foundation Repairs County Dublin
Underpinning is the process of strengthening and deepening existing foundations that have become inadequate or have been compromised by subsidence or structural movement. The most widely used technique involves excavating beneath the existing footing in a carefully planned sequence, then filling the void with mass concrete to transfer the load to more stable ground below. This method is also commonly employed to facilitate side-return extensions along the party wall line.
Properties being extended through the addition of an extra floor may require underpinning to reinforce and stabilise the existing foundations adequately.
We work in close partnership with structural engineers and loss adjusters to deliver high-quality, value-engineered structural repair solutions that meet the specific needs of each project.
Common signs of weakened foundations:
- External cracks appearing in brickwork, concrete or masonry wall
- Sinking or uneven interior floors
- Door or window frames that have begun sticking
- Skirting boards pulling free from the wall
