In addition to
raising and moving cottages and small buildings, we offer foundation
construction and/or rebuilding at reasonable rates and according to your
needs and specifications.
There are basically four types of foundations to choose from, and Davey
can access your needs, and budgetary concerns, and help you make the
right choice for you. The basic choices are:
1. Full poured concrete, or
concrete and block, foundation, reinforced with steel. Referred to as
a 'full basement', this requires a complete excavation, and therefore
is the most expensive, but usually the best choice.

2. Often referred to as a 'crawl
space', the partial basement choice still allows for some room for
mechanical equipment below the structure, and requires digging
to at least below the frost line.

3. The floating slab foundation,
which as it sounds, is one piece of steel reinforced concrete poured
to the dimensions of your structure, onto which it is finally lowered.
This option, of course, has no basement or crawl space.
4. Lastly, the most efficient
[cost effective] method is to slings 3/4 clear stone under your
cottage, and then elevate and level on pads and blocks.

Contact Davey and schedule a consultation on your project. He'll be
more than happy to discuss these options with you further.
