Foundations & Underpinning in County Durham

Professional foundations and underpinning across County Durham — free survey, fixed written quotes and guaranteed work.

S&K Property Investments & Improvement carries out foundations and underpinning throughout County Durham — one accountable team from first survey to final finish.

Every job starts with a free, no-obligation site survey and a clear, itemised price. Every solid build starts below ground. We dig and pour foundations for extensions and new builds, and carry out underpinning where existing foundations need strengthening — for example where a property has movement, subsidence, or where you're adding load with an extra storey. This is specialist work and we handle it with proper structural engineering and building-control sign-off.

Our foundations & underpinning service in County Durham includes

  • Strip and trench-fill foundations
  • Mass concrete and traditional underpinning
  • Subsidence and movement remedial works
  • Foundations for extensions and new builds
  • Structural engineer's drawings arranged
  • Building-control inspections managed

We work from engineer's drawings, manage building-control inspections at each stage, and keep you updated throughout. Underpinning is disruptive by nature, so we plan the sequence carefully to keep your property safe and the work moving.
