TPG – The only right choice for Basement Underpinning in Toronto
Are you in the middle of transforming your dark and ugly basement into a secluded man cave? Have your walls developed deep cracks? Is the alignment of your windows off? Each of these scenarios is the bane for GTA homeowners that may call for underpinning services in Toronto.
Basement underpinning is a labor-intensive home improvement process. Because it involves excavation and foundation strengthening, it must never be a DIY project. Fail to provide rock-solid support with basement footings or remove more soil than necessary, and the structural integrity of your house is in jeopardy.
The best (and safest) way to keep your house out of danger while lowering your basement is to leave this project to a local underpinning company in Toronto like TPG. We can bring in the right equipment and experienced specialists to get the job done without putting the integrity of your home at stake.
BEST BASEMENT UNDERPINNING TORONTO SERVICES
How do we carry out basement lowering in Toronto?
A typical basement lowering project involves multiple steps. They are carried out by a crew of engineers, designers, and construction professionals. Specialized equipment is also necessary for concrete slab removal, excavation, and finishing tasks.
Although this may seem like you have to turn to an army of contractors, all you need is TPG, a one-stop underpinning company in Toronto. When you leave it to us, expect five steps of your basement lowering project:
- Site evaluation. At this stage of Toronto basement underpinning, we identify load-bearing walls, soil conditions, and crawl space accessibility. This is done to draw up a lowering plan while ensuring compliance with your local building codes. At TPG, we call upon licensed engineers and other specialists to perform your site evaluation properly.
- Permit collection. Once we know why you want your basement underpinned, we help you submit appropriate home renovation permit applications. We’ll get your project off the ground as soon as they are issued
- Prep work. Before doing basement underpinning in Toronto or elsewhere, it’s vital to ensure site accessibility. That’s when we make sure central heating system pipes and ducts do not limit the working space for our technicians.
- Underpinning. We put foundation support in place and remove your concrete basement floor. Once removed, we dig out as much soil as it’s necessary for your underpinning project. We then pour concrete into the hollow areas and install new footings to create a lower foundation and ensure its structural stability.
- Waterproofing and sump pump installation. The final stage of basement lowering in Toronto is all about making sure your underpinned space stays dry and smell-free. We waterproof it using special cement with water-repellent agents and a highly effective Delta Membrane system. We then finish the walls and protect your basement from water ingress with a sump pump.
