Foundation Jacking, Repair and Installations
If something is level, plumb and square it is sitting TRUE!
Our initial expertise as you can see from our company name is foundation repair, primarily for beam and pier style foundations found under Mobile homes, Modular Homes, Cottages and Cabins and even some Traditional style homes.
Whether it is a fresh installation, major lift, jack and slide, or just slight elevation tweaks to straighten up a structure we have the equipment and expertise to help get you sitting TRUE!
Re-levelling
The typical Re-levelling process involves us measuring the home to find out how the home is sitting.
Next, we assess any constraints and things that will be affected during the adjustment to take it into consideration to create a lifting plan.
The lifting plan tells us where we need to place equipment and includes our special "Jacking Notation" for planning out he adjustment in phases so we can ensure the structure moves in the way we want it to. This is of extreme importance on structures that are composed of multiple attached units such as a double-wide or buildings with additions.
Foundations
We work with and replace many types of supports.
Our common replacement and new install support type are pad and pier or pad and cribbing style.
There are quite a few factors to consider to decide if a foundation is adequate or when designing a new foundation for a structures.
Some of the main factors are:
Weight of the Structure(s)
Beam type and Span Capability (Distance allowable between piers to prevent deflection of the beam)
Ground Bearing Capability (Weight the ground can support without failing/sinking)
Landscaping, Local Geology, Aquifer and Water Mitigation
We utilize the building codes, CSA standards and engineering best practices to calculate and make our recommendations.
Lifts
We joke that back in the 70's and 80's contractions used to play "How Low Can You Go!".
It isn't uncommon to find structures with practically inaccessible crawlspaces. This makes maintenance and renovations very difficult.
We commonly help by lifting these structures 12"-24"+ to allow for heating and plumbing systems to be installed or maintained as well as improve the foundation and reset the clock to give the structure new life.
Set-Ups
We can work with Developers and Trucking Companies to take care of the prior site work and foundation for structure being newly placed.
We have experience developing entire Mobile Home Parks from the ground work all the way to tenant occupancy, to setting double-wide's with hinged roofs, to simply installing the foundation and receiving and levelling the home for others to finish.
