Underpinning Contractors Leatherhead
There are many reasons why underpinning services in Leatherhead may be required and different methods can be used. It involves putting a new foundation under an existing foundation in order to provide 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 Leatherhead and the solution demands additional support. We are often dealing with restricted access, and we need to minimise vibrations in order to avoid making the situation worse.

Why is Underpinning in Leatherhead Necessary?
There are many reasons why you may need to perform underpinning. 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
