Basement Lowering/Underpinning Services
We are 100% certified in structural repairs. We have the knowledge and ability to convert a crawl space into a basement. Every homeowner always needs extra living/storage space! The process of lowering a basement takes a lot of work, skill, and experience to fully understand how to maintain the structural integrity of the basement foundation. Drobot Construction works closely with structural engineers in order to provide a basement lowering service that is safe, practical, and approved by local city building inspectors.
Many homeowners want to save money by trying to do the work themselves. Trust us when we say, this is NOT the do-it-yourself type of project. Many factors are in play when you lower your basement, including, but not limited to:
• Maintaining the structural integrity of the foundation
• Keeping the “AOR” or angle of repose intact
• Understanding the need for a bench footing required to lower a basement
• Meeting the Building Code
• Understanding and implementing requirements from engineered architectural drawings
Drobot Construction has years of experience lowering residential basements, installing bench footings, and increasing living space for homeowners.
