Frequently Asked Questions
Typically, foundations in Bridgeport need to extend below the frost line, which is about 42 inches. However, the exact depth depends on various factors, including soil conditions and building design.
The timeline varies based on the size and complexity of the project. A simple residential foundation might take 1-2 weeks, while larger commercial projects can take several weeks or months.
We use a combination of proper reinforcement, control joints, and high-quality concrete mix to minimize cracking. Some minor cracking is normal and doesn’t affect structural integrity.
