## Concrete Foundation Repair in Markham and Across York Region

Markham underpinning runs from Cornell new-build second-suite conversion where the original 6'8" basement needs a modest ceiling gain, to Unionville heritage stock where original stone rubble footings require careful pin-by-pin excavation. Markham building department is efficient on Second Unit Bylaw applications.

Concrete Foundation Repair in Markham uses the same crews, same engineering standards, and same fixed-price approach that Toronto Basement Underpinning runs anywhere else in the GTA. We dispatch off Highway 407, Highway 404 and Highway 7, and hold site-assessment windows for Unionville, Cornell, Cathedraltown and every other Markham neighbourhood. Cornell and Cathedraltown new-builds sit on properly engineered fill with predictable underpinning conditions; Unionville heritage foundations need rubble-footing pin-by-pin excavation on 1900s stone rubble bases.

**Basement underpinning** in Markham is also called basement lowering, foundation underpinning, or basement excavation. Whichever term homeowners and general contractors use, the work is the same: mass excavation along the perimeter, pin-by-pin concrete underpinning to engineered footing depths, and full slab restoration. Every Markham project delivered by our basement underpinning contractors follows Ontario Building Code Section 9.13 for underpinning of existing foundations.

Every Markham project starts with a site-specific assessment before contract. Fixed-price scope includes engineer drawings, structural stamp, municipal building permit, and complete restoration. WSIB-compliant crew, $2M general liability insurance, workmanship warranty on every concrete foundation repair contractor job.

Simple Process

## How Concrete Foundation Repair Works in Markham

1.  1
    
    ### Engineered Assessment

2.  2
    
    ### Honest Recommendation
    
    We tell you which scope actually fits, crack injection, localized footing repair, or full underpinning. No upselling, no padding.
    
3.  3
    
    ### Repair Execution
    
    Polyurethane crack injection from inside the basement. Footing repair via localized excavation and reinforcement. Both with full clean-up.
    
4.  4
    
    ### Verification
    
    Post-repair monitoring with crack gauges if active movement was suspected. Engineer's sign-off before final invoice.
