CONCRETE FOUNDATION REPAIR
At Confirma™, we specialise in repairing foundation cracks using innovative methods that ensure long-term durability and protection.
Choosing to repair concrete foundation cracks is more than a cosmetic issue—they signal potential structural and safety vulnerabilities and water ingress problems. Left untreated, these cracks can expand over time, weakening the integrity of your building and exposing steel reinforcements to corrosion.
Our repair process begins with a thorough assessment to determine the root cause of the cracking, followed by precision injection techniques to seal and reinforce the affected areas. This approach restores the structural integrity of your foundation while preventing water from penetrating and causing further damage.
Comprehensive Concrete Foundation Repairs
Concrete foundations are the backbone of commercial structures. Over time, factors such as shifting soil, hydrostatic pressure, and water infiltration can compromise their safety and stability. Confirma™ offers tailored solutions for foundation problems, addressing:
- Structural Weakening: Reinforcing & strengthening foundations to handle load-bearing requirements.
- Water Damage: Sealing and protecting against further ingress.
- Deterioration of Materials: Restoring compromised concrete to its original strength.
Using advanced materials and minimally invasive techniques, our concrete repairs provide a cost-effective and non-disruptive alternative to traditional methods. Confirma™ uses these solutions to ensure the structural repairs needed to protect your building’s future are performed with professional technique.
Addressing Foundation Leak Repair
Foundation leaks are a common but critical issue for commercial properties. Water intrusion can lead to:
- Corrosion of Steel Reinforcement: Weakening the structural framework.
- Concrete Spalling: Surface damage that spreads over time.
- Mould and Moisture Problems: Creating health hazards and further degrading original materials.
Confirma™ solves foundation leak issues with precision injection techniques. Our specialised hydro-structural gels create a waterproof barrier inside the foundation, stopping leaks at their source. This method eliminates the need for excavation, saving time and reducing costs.
Confirma™’s Alternatives to Underpinning for Foundation Stabilisation
For existing buildings experiencing significant structural damage or foundation problems, call in Confirma™ before hiring underpinning specialists. We will assess if our innovative and cost-effective alternatives to traditional underpinning are right for your building. Our expertise lies in delivering minimally disruptive solutions that address foundation safety issues while preserving the integrity and functionality of your structure.
Our alternative repair process can address:
- Walls Crack Repair: Strengthening exterior walls and sealing fractures.
- Structural Integrity Restoration: Ensuring long-term stability.
- Load Distribution: Enhancing the foundation’s ability to support the building’s weight.
These advanced solutions are ideal for properties experiencing settlement, foundation shifting, or inadequate initial construction. As underpinning experts, Confirma™’s methods are tailored to your commercial property’s unique challenges, ensuring long-lasting results and peace of mind.
Protecting Exterior Walls from Structural Damage
Concrete exterior walls are exposed to constant environmental stress, which can lead to cracks, water ingress and eventually structural damage. Confirma™’s concrete repairs extend beyond foundations, providing complete solutions for walls, crack repair and reinforcement. This ensures the building remains watertight and structurally sound.
Industry-Specific Solutions for Your Commercial Property
Confirma™ focuses exclusively on commercial and industrial properties, tailoring our services to meet the unique challenges faced by various sectors. Here’s how we address the specific needs of different industries:
Office Buildings
Commercial office buildings experience high foot traffic and heavy load-bearing demands. Confirma™ strengthens foundations to handle these requirements, ensuring your building remains structurally sound and operational without costly downtime.
Underground Car Parks
These structures are particularly vulnerable to water infiltration and settlement due to their below-ground nature. Confirma™’s waterproofing solutions and reinforcement techniques address these issues, preventing water ingress and ensuring stability.
Retail Facilities
Retail spaces require foundation repairs that don’t disrupt business hours. Confirma™ uses non-disruptive methods, so repairs can be completed with minimal interference to daily operations, keeping your store open and fully functional.
Large-Scale Structures
For large commercial or industrial facilities, foundation stability is critical. Confirma™ provides tailored solutions for complex issues, such as shifting soil or heavy load-bearing demands, ensuring long-term protection for these buildings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs of foundation problems?
Foundation problems can manifest as cracks in walls, uneven floors, doors or windows that don’t close properly, water seepage, or visible gaps between walls and ceilings. These issues indicate potential structural weakening or water ingress that needs immediate attention.
How does Confirma™ repair foundation cracks?
Confirma™ uses precision injection techniques to seal and reinforce foundation cracks. Our hydro-structural gels create a durable, waterproof barrier that prevents further damage and restores the foundation’s structural integrity.
Can you repair a foundation leak without excavation?
Yes! Confirma™ specialises in non-invasive solutions like curtain injection, which eliminates the need for excavation. This process creates a waterproof membrane from the inside, saving time and reducing costs.
What is underpinning, and when is it needed?
Underpinning Brisbane buildings involves stabilising and strengthening a foundation to support a building’s weight to avoid ongoing structural damage. It is typically required when a structure that needs underpinning experiences settlement, foundation shifting, or increased load demands. Confirma™ offers advanced solutions to traditional underpinning where possible.
How long do your repairs last?
Our foundation repair solutions are designed for long-term durability, with a lifespan of 30 to 50 years. This ensures your structure remains safe and stable for decades to come.
What causes foundation cracks and leaks?
Foundation cracks and basement leaks can result from:
- Hydrostatic pressure from groundwater.
- Soil movement or settlement.
- Poor initial construction.
- Deterioration of materials due to water exposure.
