Dismantling the foundation

The most difficult task in dismantling work is dismantling the foundation. In Kiev, this service is usually ordered from specialists who perform it mainly in a turnkey format. This process involves dismantling the foundation of the building, considered, in fact, as a last resort when it is impossible to carry out safe restoration of the object. The complexity of the work lies in the need to prevent the destruction of the wall structure when replacing the foundation slab of the house. This requires professional knowledge and experience in the work, which the company LLC "RBK ALBA" has.

In what situations is dismantling of the foundation necessary?

The peculiarities of this process involve carrying out work due to various reasons. Such reasons most often include the appearance of cracks in ceilings and walls, subsidence of the building, violation of the integrity of seams and joints. In the presence of such signs, it is extremely important to organize work to replace the foundation. After all, if serious violations are observed, then strengthening the foundation will be impractical.

In addition, decisions to order a demolition service are also made in the following situations:

if a planned registration of the building is required;
if it is necessary to reconstruct an old building in order to increase the loads on the walls;
when a complete dismantling of the building is carried out with subsequent clearing of the site for the new construction of the facility.

Specialists of LLC "RBK ALBA" work with various types of foundations made of various materials. The work uses optimal methods of demolition of structures, many of which involve the use of specialized tools.

Methods and features of foundation demolition

Specialists provide phased execution of works related to the direct demolition of the foundation, removal of construction debris, leveling the ground surface if necessary to develop a pit. The selected technology will depend on several factors, including the type, size and condition of the building foundation, materials and features of the location of the site, its landscape and environment.

The work begins after the master visits the site to familiarize himself with the specifics of the work. In parallel with the study of the structure, the optimal demolition technology is selected. In general, two methods are used in such works:

Manual dismantling of the foundation. The price of this type of service is quite affordable, since it does not involve the use of heavy equipment. The basic tools usually used are a perforator, crowbar, jackhammer, sledgehammer, etc. The choice of this method is due to the small size of the object, the need to preserve the integrity of surrounding objects. Most often, this method is used when dismantling pile, rubble or brick foundations.
Mechanized dismantling. In this case, heavy construction equipment and specialized tools are used. The method is recommended in situations where it is necessary to dismantle a large strip foundation made of heavy monolithic materials, or in the presence of reinforced concrete reinforcement. Another reason for this choice is the need to quickly demolish the building. The main tools used in the mechanized method are a hydraulic hammer, which is used to crush concrete and bricks. In particularly difficult cases, an excavator can be used.

How much will it cost to dismantle the foundation?

The cost of the service depends on several important factors:

choice of the method of dismantling;
number of workers who dismantle the foundation of the house;
timing of the work;
volume and distance of removal of construction debris and waste;
dimensions of the object itself.
