Geobear Stabilizes Workshop Foundation at One-Quarter the Cost of Traditional Underpinning

A lot of our neighbors were just genuinely interested in what was going on and I heartily recommend Geobear. From the price perspective and just dealing with the company they've been a very easy company to deal with. Hi, I'm Barry Carlino and I live in South East Wales. We have a separate garage and workshop which is in a separate building from our house. It's built on the side of a hill and one corner the workshop, had cracks in the wall and it was clear that there was a lack of underpinning for one corner of the building. We knew that we needed to have some extra underpinning put in there, so one of the things we investigated was to get a structural engineer involved who develop for us a hit and miss schedule which indicates where you need to put traditional concrete based underpinning under the concrete raft on which the the workshop was sitting and from looking at that schedule it looked like there was going to be a significant amount of work there, so alternative was Geobear, which offers a different sort of solution altogether. Well, three reasons really. One, was Geobear was significantly less expensive, hit and miss schedule and four times the cost. It would also have taken an enormous amount of time to do. It would have been several days of work rather than in the case of Geobear, it was one morning and just the disruption involved so with Geobear could do all the work with all the furniture and fittings in the workshop still in place. If we we needed to hit and miss schedule, we'd likely have to clear the workshop, clear a space for builders to work so it was just so much less disruption. It was very minimal. I mean, literally just to prepare kind of the working area they'd have just get rid of any overgrown vegetation. There really was very little for me to do. Johnny, who was primary contact, was always professional, kept us informed, chased but in a nice way so made sure he in contact but I never, no point in time did I feel hassled or in any way being pressured into doing anything. So from that perspective it was great and then when we made the decision when we actually finally got the quotes in and decided to go with Geobear it was so easy in terms of scheduling work to be done. The first time we couldn't make it because we were going to be away on holiday, so they provided in another day within a couple of days of the original schedule, it was also very easy.
