Underpinning Contractors East London
There are several reasons why underpinning in East London might be necessary and therefore different approaches to the methods used. It involves placing a new foundation underneath an existing foundation to give more support or shore up failing foundations.
We encounter this where sinking and subsidence has occurred due to ground movement which can be due to changes in soil conditions or local excavations in East London and the solution demands additional support. Often, we are dealing with restricted access and need to minimise vibrations to ensure we don’t make the situation worse.

Why is Underpinning in East London Necessary?
There are a variety of reasons why underpinning in East London might need to be carried out. These are usually related to subsidence issues. Some examples of why underpinning might be necessary are:
- A change in soil conditions under the foundation
- Soil characteristics were not properly taken into account during the design phase
- The original foundation is no longer suitable/strong enough
- The construction/repair/excavation of neighbouring structures endangers the current foundations
- Additional floors are to be constructed underground

Excellent choice of foundation for projects that cannot have traditional trench footings, such as ground conditions or due to services running through the foundation footprint.
