Proper soil conditions and foundation installation are critical to the long-term performance of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). During construction, subsurface conditions and footing installations must be verified to ensure they conform to the approved plans and geotechnical recommendations.
At GeoTed, we provide soil and foundation observations during ADU construction to confirm that footing excavations are properly prepared and founded on suitable materials prior to concrete placement.
Early identification of unsuitable soil, improper footing preparation, or deviations from design recommendations helps prevent settlement, cracking, and costly repairs. Our observations provide documentation that the foundation system is supported by appropriate soil conditions at the time of construction.
