Our foundation repair services in Manhattan include:
- Underpinning to engineer’s design
- Retaining walls
- Basement waterproofing
- Drainage improvements
- Foundation crack repair
- Wall repair and rebuilding

- Cracks wider than about 1/4 inch
- Sticking doors and windows
- Sloping floors

- Bowing basement walls
Catching problems early usually means a smaller repair instead of a bigger rebuild.
