    What Is Basement Underpinning?

    Basement underpinning in Toronto is a construction process that extends the foundation deeper into the ground. It strengthens and stabilizes a building’s foundation.

    As urban spaces become more compact, homeowners in Toronto increase basement depth to create additional living or storage space. Your basement can become anything from a kitchen to a game room and beyond, depending on your budget and needs. You can learn more about basement finishing costs here.

    Beyond space creation, underpinning also addresses foundation settlement issues, ensuring homes remain safe, secure, and structurally sound for years to come.

      Basement Underpinning in Toronto brings Comfort
      Comfort

      When your crawl space is 6ft high — you can’t do much with it. During basement underpinning our team will lower the floor to make it 8ft, 9ft high, or even more. Transform it into anything:

      • WIne cellar or home cinema;
      • Home office or an extra bedroom;
      • Living room or a comfortable storage area.

      Money

      High-quality basement underpinning by Willfix can pay for itself over time and make you more money in the long run. Your basement can be an actual high-return investment:

      • Rent it out and get passive income, if needed;
      • Save money on future repairs.

      No other house upgrade gives you that many possibilities and benefits with that few problems and obstacles along the way. Most of the other options are not even close.

      Basement Underpinning Methods We Use in Toronto

      All basements are unique in terms of construction, condition, and location. Half the basic steps in underpinning Toronto might be unnecessary for your basement floor lowering. Our basement underpinning in Toronto contractors can implement multiple time-tested methods and technologies to find the most efficient solution.

      Traditional Mass Pour

      It is the most common method and the one we use in Toronto most of the time. A cost-effective and straightforward process of pouring the concrete section by section.

      Mini Piled

      The one we use when the poor soil condition requires extra support in Toronto (the vertical piles) for the foundation to make it firm and steady.

      Beam and Base

      An advanced technology that implies a strengthened concrete beam and full-scale footing replacement. Rarely used in residential areas, such as Toronto, but is still available.
