OTHER SOLUTIONS

DRS is an expert in foundation repair, foundation re-leveling, and foundation modifications. When it comes to foundation damage from expansive soils, settlement, lateral overloading, or inadequate capacity, DRS has the experience to understand your problem and implement the repair. If it is a foundation modification to augment existing load capacity or to reconfigure loads paths we are your partner.  New foundations for equipment – in conjunction with our geotechnical construction capabilities, we can give you a turn-key solution.

When it comes to foundation damage from expansive soils, settlement, lateral overloading, or inadequate capacity, we have the experience to understand your problem and implement the repair. As with all other projects, the process begins by engaging a qualified engineer to evaluate the cause and solution. We take it from there.

Oftentimes foundations require modification to meet the demand of new loads, change in building uses, and changes to building codes. Typically these modifications must be done in tight working conditions with specialized limited access techniques – work the production contractors don’t want to touch. DRS is an expert and uniquely qualified to perform this special type of work.

UNIQUE STRUCTURAL CONSTRUCTION

DRS does not construct run of the mill foundations – just the unique ones. It might be a foundation for a heavy piece of equipment in a tight industrial crawl space or the foundation for a residential addition without any visible means of equipment access. Our structural experience and our limited access geotechnical construction capabilities make DRS the contractor of choice for these unusual foundation construction projects.

FRAMING AND STRUCTURAL REPAIRS

There are almost as many reasons for framing repairs and modifications as there are repair and modification projects.  Storm damage, impact damage, use changes, load changes, code changes, the list goes on. These are not your run of the mill framing projects and DRS is not your run of the mill contractor. We specialize in these out of the ordinary and often very technical projects. We are used to working in these environments and are sensitive to the impact this work has on the occupants. Count on DRS to get it done correctly, quickly and with minimal impact.

 

 

CIVIL AND DRAINAGE REPAIRS

The culprit of residential problems is often the site condition. These civil, drainage and retaining wall repairs and construction are frequently performed in conjunction with structural repairs but are sometimes performed as stand-alone solutions. DRS was founded by engineers and contractors who understand the need to accommodate, not ignore, mother nature. Not only do we perform these repairs we understand why.
