Replacement Methods
We offer professional crumbling foundation replacements in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
Traditional Concrete
Composite Panel System
Insulated Concrete Forms
Traditional Concrete
Poured concrete foundations provide a high level of strength and durability and can last for decades. Also, poured walls have a compressive and flexural strength several times that of a concrete block.
Poured concrete foundations are fire-resistant. Solid wall construction affords at least twice as much protection against fire as hollow core concrete block.
Composite Panel System
With the ability to live in your home, you can save thousands when choosing a Composite Panel System for your foundation replacement.
Composite Panel Systems are innovative, structurally superior, highly-insulated panel encapsulated in high-performance fiberglass reinforcements, inclusive of molded integral studs which act as pilasters.
In addition, Composite Panel Systems use far fewer natural resources to produce, and have 16.5 times the insulating value of concrete walls.
Insulated Concrete Forms
Insulated concrete forms (ICF) have become increasingly popular over the years. In fact, ICF can be used to build the entire house, not just the foundation. These forms are made of rigid foam with hollow centers and essentially fit together like Lego.
They are reinforced with rebar, and then concrete is poured into the hollow centers, creating a perfectly straight wall insulated with a built-in vapor barrier for a value of R-40.
