The basis of any structure is the foundation, which over time can subside. Due to the subsidence of the base, owners of houses older than 20 years old often face the appearance of deep cracks, distortions of doorways and windows, and other problems. Competent repair of the foundation of a private (or apartment) building will help stop the process of destruction and minimize damage. Repairing a subsiding foundation using GeoResin technologies will provide the building with operational reliability and durability, extending its service life beyond the standard period established during the design.

 

WHEN THE FOUNDATION SHOULD BE REPAIRED

 

Restoring the buildings foundations is a necessary measure, since even a well-designed foundation can be destroyed. The deterioration of the foundation can be caused by aggressive environmental influences, such as groundwater, weather conditions, a breakthrough in underground utilities, or wear and tear of materials. Also, when designing the building, mistakes could be made that lead to a deterioration in the foundation condition.

There are many signs that your house foundation requires a major repairs:

  • · the appearance of cracks in the windows and doors lintels, in the walls outside and inside the building;
  • · wall deformation;
  • · cracks in the house foundation;
  • · distortions of doorways and windows;
  • · cracks in the floor, on the ceiling inside the premises;
  • · floor sagging.

The more such signs and the more pronounced they are, the faster you will need the help of experts to restore the crumbling foundation. In addition to obvious signs of deterioration, the reason for the need to strengthen the foundation may be an increase in load, for example, an increase in the number of floors in a building, or replanning.

 

THE PRIVATE HOUSE FOUNDATION REPAIR, PRICE FOR RESTORATION AT GEORESIN

 

The foundation repair cost depends on many factors:

  • · foundation type;
  • · load-bearing structure type;
  • · building type (frame house, brick house, monolithic building, etc.);
  • · damage nature and extent;
  • · landscape and soil features;
  • · communications system and the building waterproofing condition;
  • · building materials’ cost;
  • · specialized equipment and labor costs.

Each case is individual, and to clarify the cost of repairs, it is better to contact GeoResin advisers.

TYPES OF FOUNDATION REPAIR

The major foundation repairs are a work package, which may include a change in the features of the building, its size and dimensions. During a major repair, a complete base strengthening or its individual parts is carried out, as the first and main step in solving the problems of the repair or reconstruction.

There are several technologies for repairing a subsided foundation of a private or apartment building:

  • · increase in the area of the house foundation;
  • · loose soil strengthening around the building perimeter;
  • · strengthening of the existing foundation using bored piles;
  • · repairs using chemicals (used to strengthen the strip foundation of a house built on a land plot with sandy soil), and others.

To carry out the restoration of the bearing capacity of any building foundation at any time of the year and under any weather conditions, you can use the geopolymer injection from GeoResin. Due to it, it is possible to strengthen the bearing capacity of soils and raise sagging structures to the required level, preventing the appearance of cracks in the building walls, as well as stop their spreading with a special technology using flexible reinforcement. The method consists in injecting multicomponent geopolymer resins into the soil. They instantly fill voids, create vertically directed pressure, stabilize and strengthen the foundation.

If you have reached this section, you care about the future of your property. By getting help from qualified professionals in good time, you will save a lot of time and money.

The first step in preserving a building that is prone to collapse is to have the building surveyed by professionals. This will help you avoid making rash or poorly-planned decisions as to what to do in order to stop the process.

GeoResin specialists will come on site and determine the type of foundation deformation and find out the reasons for it. Depending on the data they will make the necessary calculations and determine what actions to take to halt the building destruction and what is the best method of foundation stabilization.

Based on the received information, you can make a balanced decision on which of the three directions to take:

  • 01 Continue to monitor the dynamics of destruction with the help of professional instruments, defining yourself a «point of no return».
  • 02 Develop a draft solution, taking into account structural, financial and «life» constraints, and implement it.
  • 03 Apply for an alternative solution on the basis of the survey to a third party.

REASONS FOR THE FOUNDATION DESTRUCTION:

  • not properly rammed base
  • additional new load on structures
  • technogenic breakdowns and accidents of engineering communications
  • regular fluctuations in the groundwater level and soil temperature
  • excavation or piling works nearby
  • structural differences in foundations within the same building
  • regular exposure to vibrations
  • nonhomogeneous foundation under one building
  • оrganic processes in base soils

QUESTIONS THAT GEORESIN WILL ANSWER:

  • What is going on with the house or structure in general?
  • What caused the cracks or deformations in the structure?
  • Is there any point in waiting for improvements or changes and what kind of changes?
  • Can we get by with face-lift?
  • What will happen if nothing is done?
  • Will «store-bought» or «do-it-yourself» solutions help?
  • Can a «familiar foreman» solve the problem?
  • Is it possible, and how, to slow down or stop the process of destruction?
  • Is it possible to get everything back as before? what are the options?
  • When is it better and cheaper to start solving the problem? is it possible not to resolve it right away?
  • How much does it cost to solve the problem and what are the conditions for implementation?
  • What can be done for x hryvnias?
