Every strong home starts with something you’ll probably never see. 🏡
Let’s talk FOOTINGS!
Footings are the wide concrete bases beneath foundation walls and support posts. They spread the weight of a building across the ground, helping prevent sinking and uneven settling.
Think of snowshoes: they spread your weight across the snow so you don’t sink. Footings do the same thing for your home!
Before foundation walls go up, the site is excavated to suitable soil, we form the footings and pour the concrete, with steel reinforcement where specified. Their size depends on the weight they need to support and the soil beneath them.
Proper ground preparation, accurate placement and the right dimensions all matter. Once covered, footings quietly do their job every day.
The foundation supports your home. The footings support your foundation. This part matters.
At Nigh’s Concrete Forming Ltd., we know that what’s below the surface matters.
Build your dreams on our foundations.
