Frequently Asked Questions

  • What causes foundations to crack or sink?

    Foundations often crack or sink due to soil movement, poor drainage or changes in moisture levels. Expansive clay soils can swell and shrink with rainfall or drought, while erosion or nearby excavation weakens support. Tree roots, plumbing leaks or poorly compacted fill may also cause the ground to shift. Over time, these conditions create uneven pressure beneath the structure, leading to visible cracks, sinking or sloping in parts of the building.

  • Is screw piling suitable for sloping blocks?

    Screw piling works very well on sloping blocks. It allows for foundation support without major excavation or costly retaining walls. Piles are installed at varying heights to match the slope, keeping structures level and reducing ground disturbance. This approach is efficient, quick to install and ideal for residential or commercial sites on uneven land where traditional footings would be more disruptive or less reliable over time.

  • Can underpinning be used for all building types?

    Underpinning can be applied to most building types, including homes, heritage buildings, unit blocks and light commercial structures. The specific method used depends on the structure’s design, site access and foundation material. Engineers assess the extent of movement or damage before selecting the best underpinning solution. In most cases, it restores stability and extends the building’s usable life without requiring demolition or relocation.

  • Is planning approval required for underpinning?

    Planning or building approval is often required for underpinning, especially if it affects the structural integrity of the property. A structural engineer usually designs the solution and provides documentation for council or private certifier approval. Regulations vary by state and local council, so it's important to confirm requirements before starting work. Proper approvals ensure safety, legal compliance and protection during property resale or insurance assessments.
