Each concrete foundation construction project begins with soil testing and engineering analysis to determine the optimal foundation type for your property conditions.
Our Foundation Construction Process
1.
Site Evaluation and Engineering
We conduct thorough soil analysis, survey existing conditions, and design foundations that meet structural requirements and local building codes. Our engineers account for load-bearing capacity, drainage, and frost protection.
2.
Excavation and Site Preparation
Precision excavation establishes proper depth and dimensions. We install gravel bases, drainage systems, and utilities before concrete placement. Proper site preparation prevents future settlement issues.
3.
Forming and Reinforcement
We build accurate forms and install steel reinforcement (rebar) according to engineering specifications. Proper reinforcement prevents cracking and provides tensile strength throughout the concrete foundation.
4.
Concrete Placement and Finishing
We use high-quality concrete mixes appropriate for Colorado’s climate. Our team monitors proper curing to achieve maximum strength and durability. Finishing includes waterproofing, insulation, and surface treatments.
5.
Inspection and Warranty
All concrete foundation services include final inspections to verify code compliance and quality standards. We provide warranty coverage and maintenance recommendations.
Signs Your Foundation Needs Repair
1.
Visible Cracks
Horizontal cracks, stair-step patterns in block foundations, and cracks wider than 1/4 inch indicate structural concerns requiring immediate concrete foundation repair evaluation.
2.
Water Intrusion
Moisture in basements, standing water around foundations, and efflorescence (white mineral deposits) signal drainage problems that threaten foundation integrity.
3.
Structural Movement
Gaps between walls and ceilings, sloping floors, and bowing foundation walls demonstrate active settlement or soil pressure issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
The primary types include full basement foundations, crawl space foundations, concrete slab foundation systems, and stem wall foundations. Selection depends on soil conditions, climate, building codes, budget, and intended use of the structure.
Foundation cracks result from settlement, expansive soil movement, hydrostatic pressure, freeze-thaw cycles, inadequate reinforcement, poor drainage, or improper curing during concrete foundation construction. Some hairline cracks are cosmetic; wider structural cracks require professional evaluation.
A properly constructed concrete foundation typically lasts 50-100 years with appropriate maintenance. Lifespan depends on material quality, soil conditions, drainage management, climate factors, and adherence to building codes during installation
Concrete slab foundation repair methods include epoxy injection for structural cracks, routing and sealing for surface cracks, slab jacking to correct settlement, and complete replacement for severe damage. The repair approach depends on crack size, location, and underlying cause.
Unstable foundation repair requires professional assessment to identify the cause. Solutions include underpinning with piers or pilings, installing helical anchors, injecting polyurethane foam, adding drainage systems, or complete concrete foundation repair with structural reinforcement and waterproofing.
