Shoring and Underpinning
We offer Shoring on projects where vertical walls of soil need to be stabilized, either as a permanent or temporary measure to prevent collapse.
Underpinning is required when a structure is either sinking or is showing signs of subsidence which can appear as cracks in the masonry and concrete of the structure. It can also be used to create a void such as room or cellar below an existing building. It can also be used to reinforce existing building and/or structures for additional storeys, extensions, the added weight requires strengthening the existing footings.
CDS Building Movers will determine the feasibility of preserving and relocating heritage buildings. We will conduct studies and make presentations to committees, architects, engineers, and local authorities as required.
Our past experience and performance enable us to counsel on building preservation.
