The right foundation is crucial to any property, no matter if that is a residential or commercial project. If you are looking for the right foundation choice, Silver & Co. has got the solution for you: concrete foundations!
Concrete foundations offer numerous advantages that could make them an excellent option for your next construction project. In fact, let’s explore the benefits of concrete foundations below…
Durability
Concrete foundations are renowned for their durability, stability, and strength, making them an attractive choice in earthquake-prone areas of New Zealand. This means that in the event of an earthquake, the risk of collapse and damage is reduced. In particular, slab concrete foundations are extremely resistant to shifts and damages, making them a durable foundation choice that shouldn’t be overlooked.
Protection
Aside from its earthquake-resistance, concrete foundations also offer protection in a number of different ways. They are fire-resistant, meaning that the spread of fire is slowed and can be somewhat contained, providing enough time for any people inside the building to safely evacuate.
On top of this, concrete prevents pests from gnawing their way inside your foundations, which helps make buildings pest-free. Pests will have a much harder time trying to infiltrate a concrete foundation compared to a wood foundation.
Cost-Effectiveness
Save money when you choose concrete foundations! Compared to other types of foundations, concrete foundations are cost-effective, making it a budget-friendly option. It doesn’t require as much resources or labour as other types of foundations, such as wood foundations, which is why the installation process is also relatively quick and easy.
