Concrete Foundations in Tinley Park for Additions and Garages

Before the framing crew shows up, the whole project rests on a few feet of concrete in the ground. Get that part wrong and you see it for the life of the building: doors that stick, drywall that cracks at the corners, a garage slab that tilts toward one wall. A foundation for an addition, a detached garage or a new porch has to start below frost depth so winter heave cannot lift it, sit on undisturbed or properly compacted soil and carry reinforcement where the plans call for it. We work from your drawings and your builder's layout, dig the footings to depth, set the forms square and level, place steel and pour. Walls are formed and poured to height, and slab foundations get the same stone base and compaction we use on every slab. Once the concrete has cured enough to take load, the forms come off and the site is ready for the next trade. Homeowners in Tinley Park adding space on the back of a house or building a garage off the alley call us for exactly this step.
