Every construction project has unique foundation requirements, from simple concrete pads to complex multi-level basement systems. Our extensive experience across residential, commercial, and agricultural projects means we have the expertise to handle any foundation challenge with precision and reliability.
Foundation depth depends on your specific project and local soil conditions, but residential foundations typically extend below the frost line at approximately 4-5 feet deep.
Most residential foundation projects take 5-7 days from excavation to completion, weather permitting. This includes excavation, forming, reinforcement placement, concrete pouring, and initial curing time before backfilling. We provide detailed project timelines during our consultation and keep you informed of progress throughout the process.
We handle challenging soil conditions regularly in Norfolk County and come prepared with the right equipment and expertise. If we encounter rock, we have the tools for safe removal, and if soil conditions require additional support, we’ll recommend solutions like deeper footings or engineered fill.
Absolutely – we manage all permit applications, inspections, and regulatory compliance as part of our comprehensive service. This includes coordinating with municipal building departments, scheduling required inspections at each phase, and ensuring all work meets Ontario Building Code standards.
