Basement Underpinning in Strathroy, ON

Strathroy-Caradoc homeowners looking to maximize their property’s potential are discovering the value of legal basement apartments. With its proximity to London and growing community amenities, Strathroy is an ideal market for secondary suites. Our team serves the entire Strathroy-Caradoc area with basement renovations, underpinning, waterproofing, and complete legal suite conversions.

Many older homes in London have basements with ceiling heights under 6’9”, which doesn’t meet Ontario Building Code minimums for habitable space. Basement underpinning lowers the existing foundation and floor to create the ceiling height you need — typically 8’ or more. This is a specialized structural process that involves excavating beneath the existing footings in carefully sequenced sections, pouring new concrete to extend the foundation depth, and then pouring a new floor slab. Our team has extensive experience with underpinning London’s older housing stock, including homes with stone, block, and poured concrete foundations. Every project is engineered by a licensed structural engineer and inspected at every stage.
