Eastern Engineering Group: Comprehensive Foundation Repair and Structural Remediation

Scope of Services

Eastern Engineering Group specializes in foundation repair and structural remediation for residential and commercial buildings. Services include foundation underpinning, crack repair, hydrostatic pressure mitigation, and seismic retrofitting.

Assessment and Diagnostics

Initial evaluation uses high‑resolution laser scanning, ground‑penetrating radar, and moisture meters to map settlement patterns, crack propagation, and groundwater levels. Findings guide the selection of appropriate remediation methods.

Repair Techniques

Underpinning extends the foundation depth using piers, screw piles, or jet grouting, redistributing loads to stable strata. Crack Injection employs polyurethane foam or epoxy to seal fissures and restore load paths. Concrete Beam & Column Replacement replaces compromised elements with engineered steel or fiber‑reinforced polymer to regain strength.

Water Management Solutions

Eastern Engineering Group installs perimeter drainage systems, French drains, and sump pumps to control hydrostatic pressure. Waterproofing membranes and sealants are applied to foundation walls to prevent moisture ingress.

Structural Retrofitting

For seismic or wind‑load upgrades, the company uses engineered moment‑resisting frames, shear walls, and base isolation bearings. These retrofits comply with current building codes and reduce future settlement risks.

Project Management and Quality Assurance

Each project follows a phased schedule: design, permitting, execution, and post‑completion monitoring. Quality is verified through third‑party testing and continuous moisture monitoring for up to 12 months after repair.

Client Benefits

Customers gain longer building life expectancy, reduced maintenance costs, and increased property value. The company offers warranties covering structural performance for up to five years.

Case Example

A commercial office tower in downtown experienced foundation settlement of 3.5 inches. Eastern Engineering Group implemented a composite underpinning system, reducing settlement to under 0.2 inches and eliminating water seepage, restoring structural safety and tenant confidence.
