Levelling

It may seem a bit strange to think about house levelling. After all, you don’t live in the leaning tower of Pisa… however, you would be surprised by the amount of houses that could do with a levelling job. There are many reasons for this but what it amounts to is making sure that every slab, or area, of the foundations that keep your house level is just that – level. Over time, these things, which seem to be perfectly natural aspects of the physics of construction, can be in jeopardy. Make sure that you are in good shape with a contract from us.

Options

There are different options when it comes to house levelling techniques and a lot of this depends on the material of your foundations as well as the state of the soil. If you want to learn more about the importance of soil, visit our draining service page, but essentially, the age and the water retention levels can mean that certain areas get saturated and weakened over time, which under the foundations can make the whole structure of the house sink on one side. Make sure this doesn’t happen with a great service from our house levelling department.

Inspections

Here, the inspections stage is very important. There are many things that we need to test. We would like to be looking at the state of the soil here, as well as the moisture in the walls and the joints, beams and links that hold it all together. That is why we need to run inspections and you should stay away from any company that doesn’t think it is important to come and have a look at a building before they give you costs. They simply can’t know how much work needs to be put in beforehand. We will always give accurate costs and time frames.
