Foundations for Transportable Homes

The foundation of a home is not just its literal base but also the cornerstone of your peace of mind and your property’s resilience. Whether relocating an existing home or placing a new transportable structure, the importance of a properly laid foundation cannot be overstated.

Why Proper Foundations Matter

The foundation of your home influences not just the structure’s integrity but also its long-term viability and comfort:

  • Ensures Structural Stability: Foundations are engineered to resist settling and movement, keeping your home secure and undamaged amid diverse environmental conditions.
  • Increases Home Longevity: A well-built foundation minimises stress on the building by extending its lifespan and reducing maintenance needs.
  • Enhances Safety and Comfort: By reducing structural shifts, our foundations help avoid cracks in walls or misaligned doors and windows, ensuring a safer and more comfortable living environment.
  • Provides a Solid Base for Future Modifications: If you plan to expand or modify your home, a solid foundation makes these changes easier and safer, supporting additional weight and complexity.
  • Foundations for Flood Zones: In flood-prone areas, ensuring your home has a quality foundation is not just a precaution—it’s a necessity. Exposure to water, potential soil erosion and shifting during floods, necessitates specially engineered foundations for homes in these zones to ensure stability. Advanced technology and strategic construction methods, such as elevated platforms or pilings, can significantly mitigate these risks. This approach not only protects the structural integrity of your home but also ensures a safer living environment, ultimately preserving your investment in the face of natural challenges.

Our Process

How We Build Strong Foundations

Our process for constructing foundations is meticulous and transparent, involving several key steps:

  1. Initial Consultation and Site Assessment:
    • Every project begins with a thorough consultation to understand your needs and expectations.
  2. Design and Planning:
    • The experts use the information gathered during the assessment to design a foundation that meets local building codes and exceeds them in terms of safety and durability. This phase involves detailed planning to ensure the foundation will support your home.
  3. Preparation and Groundwork:
    • The subsequent phase involves readying the site for the foundation’s installation. This process encompasses digging to specified depths, and accurately marking the foundation’s blueprint.
  4. Foundation Construction:
    • Using the highest quality materials, our skilled team constructs the foundation, paying close attention to every detail from the mixing of concrete to the reinforcement with steel. Our techniques are designed to ensure the longevity and durability of your foundation.
