Why Regina Homes Need Underpinning
Older Regina homes (in areas like Cathedral, Lakeview, and Hillsdale) have shallow footings poured before modern soil standards were established. These footings sit directly in the active zone of highly expansive Regina clay, making them extremely vulnerable to seasonal swelling and shrinking. Underpinning deepens the support of the existing foundation, extending it below the 6-foot frost line and the active clay layer to rest on stable, load-bearing soil.
How We Do Underpinning in Regina
Our engineered underpinning process involves excavating beneath your existing footings in controlled sections. We then pour new, deeper mass concrete footings or install engineered piers to extend the foundation's reach below the frost line and active Regina clay. Our local crews understand the complexities of excavating in this soil and ensure your home remains fully supported throughout the process.
Cost of Underpinning in Regina
Foundation repair in Saskatchewan typically runs $2,200–$8,100 (averaging ~$5,100), but extensive underpinning is a major structural repair that can reach higher depending on the home's perimeter. The price on your written quote is the price you pay, fixed after a free inspection.
