Underpinning & Foundation Footing Retrofitting Services

Underpinning and footing retrofitting are advanced structural solutions used to stabilize foundations that are settling, sinking, or lacking proper support. This process involves installing new, properly engineered concrete footings beneath the structure or reinforcing existing ones. At Apex, we focus on building a true load-bearing foundation, not temporary fixes.


What it does: 

Stops settlement, redistributes structural load onto stable soil, and provides permanent support for your home’s foundation.

Signs You Need This:

  • Foundation sinking or uneven floors 
  • Cracks in drywall, ceilings, or exterior brick 
  • Gaps between walls and ceilings/floors 
  • Doors and windows not closing properly 
  • One side of the home visibly lower than the other

Common Causes:

  • Weak or loose soil beneath the foundation 
  • Poor original footing design or no footing at all 
  • Erosion from water runoff or poor drainage 
  • Drought conditions causing soil shrinkage 
  • Heavy loads not properly supported
