The first step in constructing a foundation for a house is to determine what type of foundation is required. This will generally be determined by the soil type although there are other factors such as nearby large trees, gradient and drainage.
Typically a site inspection would be conducted and trial holes will be dug. The soil samples are then sent for testing to determine its composition and type. Often the local authority will have information on the soil types in the building area. Following this, the building inspector and we will then decide what type and depth of foundations are required.
Following this the foundation work can be priced and a quotation made.
