Creaky floor

House Piling Hamilton East, Hamilton

4.0

Steve was very professional. A day after he completed the job I texted him to let him know that I still had concerns as my floor was still creaking. Without hesitation, he returned the following day and did all that he could to fix the problem. He assured me that my foundation was safe and that I should not have any concerns about the piling underneath my house. He was honest and did all he could. I am satisfied with his work.

Alex completed my project to perfection, the whole thing turned out better than I imagined. He caused minimal issues to the surrounding area, where I was expecting damage to be part of the project. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alex to anyone and would certainly use his skills in the future.

Floor stablizing in parts of house.

Other (Foundations) Paekakariki, Kapiti Coast

4.0

Alvirg was a highly motivated worker. He communicated with us daily and he worked with great commitment to get our floor as stable as possible. He worked in a difficult situation with a smile. Alvirg worked on our house piles in very tight and cramped conditions with very little crawl space under the house. We paid 50% deposit before he started and final payment on day of completion.

Slabs

House Slabs Aniseed Valley, Tasman

5.0

Placed 3 slabs in one day - couldn't be happier. We've used a range of concrete placers in Nelson and Concrete Unlimited have outperformed them all. They managed to get the job done without needing concrete pumps which was a big cost saving. Surface finish and levels were great. Cut the next day with zero cracking.

Koutu Rotorua Sloping relocated house

House Piling Rotorua, Rotorua

4.0

Our job required levelling the house due to geothermal activity in rotorua. Releveled and caused very superfical cracking inside house, slight problem with one window requiring us to remove one window security. The crew were well prepared, good communication every step of the job. Some unforseen expense getting access so removed fibrelite surrounds, but minimal small extra cost. Added 6 extra piles to relieve outter house weight.

Assess underhouse piles

House Piling Central Hawkes Bay Country, CHB

These guys were fantastic. Considering we had an absolute downpour they continue to work, until it was not possible due to the bad weather. They were friendly, but professional also. Couldn't fault them, or the company they work for. I will definitely recommend them to anyone needing their skills and professionalism. It's so nice to have a company you can trust and rely on to get the job done. Well done everyone that has been involved. I don't have any photos at this time.

Understanding the Scope of Your Foundation Project

When embarking on a foundation project in Timaru, it's essential to clearly understand the scope of work required. Whether you're looking to undertake foundation repair, basement waterproofing, or soil stabilisation, grasping the fundamentals will help you communicate more effectively with your specialist. This ensures that your project stays on schedule and any potential issues are swiftly addressed.

Choosing the Right Foundation Specialist

In Timaru, selecting a foundation specialist involves more than just comparing quotes. While cost is a significant factor, it’s crucial to consider the specialist's experience, quality of work, and customer service. Leveraging the 12,000 trade professionals and 250,000 reviews on Builderscrack can significantly streamline this process, ensuring you make an informed choice.

Adapting to Timaru’s Unique Building Environment

The architectural styles in Timaru are as diverse as its weather conditions. From traditional villas featuring local bluestone to modern, open-plan homes, Timaru presents unique challenges and opportunities for foundation specialists. Knowledge of the local construction practices and materials is vital for effective and durable foundation work.

Utilising Specialised Tools and Techniques

Expertise with specialised software like AutoCAD and Revit is crucial in planning and designing robust foundations. These tools enable precise calculations and design, essential for accommodating Timaru's varied house styles and natural conditions. Moreover, practical experience with foundation techniques, such as pile driving and underpinning, aids in creating secure structures that withstand time and the elements.

The Impact of Weather on Foundation Works

Timaru's weather can significantly influence foundation projects. Rainy conditions may cause delays, making the ground too soft for construction. Reliable communication with your foundation specialist will keep you informed of any weather-related disruptions and how these delays might affect your timeline and budget.

Catering to Seismic Stability

New Zealand’s seismic activity necessitates strong and stable foundations, particularly in regions like Timaru. Foundation specialists should have knowledge of soil mechanics and construction techniques that prioritise seismic stability. Engaging a knowledgeable specialist ensures that your foundation will not only support your home but also offer resilience against natural disasters.
