Perth’s Only Independent Underpinning Specialist

Are sections of your property cracking, leaning or showing issues of settlement such as gaps between the walls and cornices?

It may require localised crack-stitching or isolated underpinning to help rectify the situation and ensure the property is fully re-supported, thereby addressing the issue now and preventing a possible need for complete underpinning in the future which can be a costly process.

If caught in the early stages, “a stitch in time saves nine”, that really is the best strategy.

Signs of settlement or subsidence that require crack-stitching or underpinning can include cracked walls, sinking floors, jamming doors or windows, all of which can often be attributed to weak soils, settled footings or other factors such as poor ground conditions. Failed retaining walls can also cause issues of settlement, as they sometimes move out of original alignment and rotate laterally, causing soil slippage or loss of soil mass which can lead to the property requiring either isolated or full underpinning.

Leaning piers, boundary walls, columns, garden walls, plus other small building components such as water features and mailbox enclosures can also be subject to movement, often requiring manipulation using a bespoke propping system and additional isolated edge footings, thereby providing the required re-support and underpinning to ensure stability.

Jetis Building Services help remediate all those commonly occurring issues.

Most jobs are completed in one day. Minimal disruption to clients.
