Leveling the foundation

Subsidence and other deformations of the foundation are common problems that can be associated with mistakes made during the design and construction process, as well as with violations of the building’s operating conditions. They significantly reduce the service life of the building and lead to its destruction. Leveling the foundation is a process that involves using various technologies that allow you to raise or lower parts of the foundation to reach the required level. We level the foundation using state-of-the-art deep soil injection techniques under our own brand Premium Technologies Deep Stabilization and Premium Technologies Slab Lifting.

When you may need to level the foundation

The main causes of base deformations are:

  • design errors due to incorrect distribution of the weight of the building on the base;
  • instability or heterogeneity of the ground;
  • water exposure;
  • violation of construction rules and regulations;
  • excessive load during natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, strong winds).

Also, these factors can interact with each other, reinforcing each other.

Subsidence and other deformations of the base can occur both in the horizontal plane and in the vertical plane.

Stages of foundation alignment work

Regardless of the chosen method, the process of leveling the base includes the following steps:

  1. assessment of the condition of the foundation and foundation, as well as identification of the causes of foundation deformation.
  2. Work planning. Based on the assessment of the condition of the foundation and the causes of its deformation, the specialist develops an action plan for stabilizing the foundation and leveling the foundation, including the choice of the method of work.
  3. Preparation of the work area that will be used to perform the work. This may include cleaning up debris, building temporary retaining walls or supports, and installing equipment.
  4. The process of strengthening the foundation and foundations. It can include different stages, depending on the chosen method.
  5. Restoration work after the foundation reinforcement works are completed. This may include backfilling the foundation, installing a blind area around the perimeter.
Foundation alignment methods

Today, various technologies and methods are used to strengthen the foundation. The choice of method depends on the type of foundation, deformations and the reasons that caused them. Here are some of the methods used to strengthen the foundation:

  1. install additional supports that help distribute the weight of the building evenly over the base and prevent further movement.
  2. Replace damaged sections of foundations in case of serious damage. This can be a complex process that involves lifting and maintaining the building during replacement.
  3. Increasing the base area of foundations by installing tides made of concrete, deepening the foundation, and installing a concrete cushion under the foundation. In these cases, first a formwork is installed to form concrete structures, which is then poured with a construction concrete mixture.
  4. Unloading the existing foundation from lateral ground pressure, transferring the load from the foundations to the piles to improve soil conditions and prevent problems from occurring again.
  5. Fixing the ground of the foundation base by injecting special polyurethane foam compounds into the ground under the foundation is a method used to level and lift foundations, strengthen the ground, stopping the subsidence of the foundation. This is a modern non-invasive method that does not take much time to complete the work.
Advantages of working with Premium Technologies

Premium Technologies has been successfully operating for more than 10 years. We guarantee the safety and extension of the service life of concrete coatings after repair. We also take care of the environment by using environmentally friendly materials and disposing of waste.

We offer complete solutions for projects of any complexity, including standard and individual projects in accordance with customer requirements and technical specifications. Our company carries out a full range of works on the site, including design, engineering and construction works, starting from the selection of the optimal technical solution and materials, and ending with the commissioning of the facility and warranty service.

If you have reached this block, then you care about the future of your property. By applying for help from qualified specialists in time, you will significantly save your time and financial costs.

The first step to save an object that is subject to destruction is to examine the building by specialists. This will help you avoid making rash or ill-considered decisions about measures aimed at stopping this process.

Premium Technologies specialists will go to the site and determine the type of foundation deformation and find out its causes. Depending on the data obtained, they will perform the necessary calculations, determine which measures will help to stop the destruction of the building, and which method of strengthening the foundation will be optimal.

Based on this information, you will be able to make an informed decision in which of the three directions to go: 
The foundation can be leveled after the causes of its deformation have been eliminated

Answers to frequently Asked questions

Performing work using Premium Technologies technology does not require moving out residents or stopping the operation of the house. 

The materials we use are durable and resistant to aggressive environments. Premium Technologies has the ability to guarantee works for up to 60 years. 

We use Premium Technologies geopolymer resin injection technology, which is similar to a "microsurgical operation" without excavation and excavation or clutter management.

Cracks in the walls are closed as the building structure rises. Windows and doors will work normally again if there were misalignments before. 

Most projects are completed within two to three days. Keep in mind that each project is different.
