Whether you are building a deck, raised gazebo or some other addition to your home or commercial property, let Messina Foundations LLC ensure there is a solid base of concrete piers in place to keep your new construction stabilized.

Having a solid foundation for any raised platform is necessary to eliminate the risk of your new deck or other construction project from sinking or toppling over. An inefficient or poorly designed foundation system can cause serious damages to both the structure of your new construction as well as the safety of those nearby. You wouldn't put your house on a faulty foundation. Likewise, your decks, patios, and other raised platforms should be supported with the proper foundation of concrete piers.

At Messina Foundations LLC we are experts when it comes to constructing solid poured concrete piers. Our professionally trained concrete piers contractors are familiar with various soil conditions and load requirements for determining exactly what type and how many concrete piers your new construction will need to ensure it is properly stabilized. So if you are building a deck or other raised platform construction, don't leave the stability of your structure up to chance.

Rigid plastic footing forms are new alternatives to conventional forming methods for concrete pier footings. These types of piers are quicker and less expensive to install. The installation for the rigid plastic footing forms is similar to that for conventionally wooden formed footings, but with fewer steps and without the labor and resources necessary to construct wooden form. 

Do you live on a hilly or sloped property? Undulating lots certainly are common.  One way to regain yard space for playing, relaxing, parking or many other uses is to install one or more retaining walls to help level out the property.

Exactly what type of retaining wall you install depends on various factors, including site topography and the look and style you’d like to maintain. The two main styles of retaining walls — stacked stone and cast concrete — offer various benefits. Gabion walls and wood walls also have their place, but in this post we’ll look specifically at what stacked stone and cast concrete would bring to the project. We’ll also look at the factors you’ll want to consider when deciding between these two styles.

Strength : Both stacked stone and poured-in-place concrete (also referred to as cast concrete) walls are strong enough for various applications. However, properly mixed and poured concrete has the potential to be much stronger than a typical stacked stone wall, especially if reinforcing steel is used within the concrete. Retaining walls must be strong enough to withstand not only the gravity load pushing down into the ground, but also the lateral forces of the backfill pushing on the wall from the side. Here in the Pacific Northwest, where frequent rains keep the soil full of water for much of the year, a retaining wall that’s 4 feet tall and 15 feet long will need to withstand up to 20 tons of soil pressure. Of course, the taller the wall, the greater the forces. That’s one reason it’s recommended to hire a professional contractor to build retaining walls that are more than 4 feet high.

Space : The 4-foot limitation for stacked stone walls leads to another consideration — the amount of space that will be required for the retaining wall system. On larger slopes, a tiered approach — with several levels of shorter retaining walls spaced a few feet from each other — can be aesthetically pleasing. Tiered walls also take up more space, however; one 6- or 8-foot cast concrete wall can mean recouping a dozen feet or more of yard space over using stacked stone.

Speed : Cast concrete retaining walls can be much faster to put in place than stacked-stone walls, but often that consideration is less of an issue on smaller projects. There are many factors to the speed of any job, of course, but a good concrete contractor won’t take long to build forms for a concrete retaining wall and pour the concrete into place. If speed isn’t an issue, and you really want to do the project yourself, you might consider the stacked stone approach — just be careful to consider wall height, drainage and other design issues.

Look : Both stacked stone and poured-in-place walls can take on a variety of appearances, depending on your needs desires as a homeowner. When considering the type of retaining wall you want on your property, it’s a good idea to consult examples online that can serve as models for your contractor. It also would be wise to talk with your contractor about ideas you may not have considered. Keep in mind that while block styles abound, cast concrete offers a variety of interesting styles as well.

We've all walked on uneven sidewalks and walkways in our neighborhood. While we often don't give them a second thought, crooked and uneven sidewalks and walkways can pose a real challenge. Uneven sidewalks and walkways can make accessibility difficult for the differently-abled. Homeowners may be liable if someone trips on a crack in a sidewalk and injures themselves. They may also find it challenging to sell their property if their walkways and sidewalks are in extreme disrepair. At Messina Foundations LLC, we can help you repair your damaged sidewalk or walkway at an affordable price.

Whether you own a commercial or residential property, your sidewalk or walkway could suffer from:

-Tree roots growing under the concrete

-Ground under the sidewalk/walkway shifting over time

-Poorly compacted soil under the concrete

-Temperature fluctuations, causing the concrete to expand or contract

-Improper installation

These conditions may create a variety of tripping hazards and accessibility issues such as:

-Large cracks and holes

-Depressions and indentations

-Poorly compacted soil under the concrete

-Cross slopes and reverse cross slopes

-Reduced slip resistance
