Footing Reinforcement in Cleveland, OH
Footings are the base your entire home sits on. When they crack, crumble, or were undersized from the start, everything above them is compromised. Structure Strong pours reinforced concrete footings with proper rebar cages, extending or replacing deteriorated sections to restore the load path from your walls to stable ground.
In many older Cleveland homes, original footings were poured too shallow, too narrow, or without reinforcement. Over decades, freeze-thaw cycles and moisture infiltration break them down. We excavate to expose the existing footing, assess its condition, and either reinforce it with bonded concrete and rebar or replace it entirely.
New footings are designed to current structural standards with appropriate width, depth, and steel reinforcement for the loads they carry.

What Homeowners Say
From real footing reinforcements projects in the Cleveland area.
“The column in the middle of our basement was literally sinking into the floor. You could see the concrete crumbling around the base. They excavated it, poured a proper footing with rebar, and installed an adjustable steel column. It's been six months and that column hasn't budged. Should've done this when we first noticed it tilting.”

“We're adding a second story and the engineer said the existing footings weren't sized for the additional load. Structure Strong poured supplemental footings and reinforced the originals. Everything was done to the engineer's spec and passed inspection first try. They coordinated with our GC and there were zero scheduling headaches.”
Diane V.
“Old house, original footings from 1948. They were crumbling to pieces. Structure Strong excavated the worst sections and poured new reinforced footings with rebar. They showed me pictures of the rebar cage before the pour which I appreciated. The support column sits solid now instead of rocking when you push on it.”
