Underpinning

The underpinning of a building is a method to reinforce or strengthen the foundation of an existing building or structure. Depending on the circumstances, underpinning contractors use this method for a variety of reasons. Usually, it is required when the original foundation is not stable or strong enough, when the usage of the structure has changed, when the soil supporting the foundation has changed, or when adding additional depth to a room or to a basement.

This process entails the extension of a foundation, allowing it to rest on a more robust system. Therefore, it might be more cost-effective to improve the current foundation of the building than to build a new one.
