In the realm of construction, ensuring the stability and durability of a building’s foundation is paramount. At CSMANLTD, we specialise in providing comprehensive underpinning services in London, designed to reinforce and stabilise foundations for both residential and commercial properties. Our expertise in construction underpinning, box underpinning, and mini pile underpinning ensures that your structure remains safe, secure, and long-lasting.

Understanding Underpinning

  1. What is Underpinning? Underpinning is a construction technique used to strengthen and stabilize the foundation of an existing building. This process becomes necessary when the original foundation is no longer capable of supporting the structure, often due to soil subsidence, changes in soil conditions, or additional loads from building modifications.
  2. Types of Underpinning: At CSMANLTD, we offer three primary types of underpinning services:
  • Construction Underpinning: This traditional method involves excavating sections below the existing foundation and pouring concrete to extend the foundation depth and width. It’s ideal for enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the structure.
  • Box Underpinning: This technique involves creating a reinforced concrete box around the existing foundation. It provides additional support and is often used in situations where the foundation needs extensive reinforcement.
  • Mini Pile Underpinning: Mini piles are small-diameter, deep foundation elements that transfer the building load to deeper, more stable soil layers. This method is suitable for sites with limited access or where deep excavation is impractical.
