Underpinning is the process of restoring building foundations which have weakened or shifted over time. Houses built on weak or unstable soil may require underpinning as the foundation is not able to support the structure. The soil may become unstable over time because of a number of reasons including changes in soil properties, structural changes to the house without enforcing the foundation, harsh weather or just normal wear and tear.

Apart from the soil becoming unstable, there are various causes which may lead to a structure requiring underpinning like:

• The old wooden stumps that support the foundation may have decayed.
• A structural change may have caused the weight distribution to change.
• Dampness in underlying soil may have caused a change in the properties of the soil.
• Nearby construction and drilling may have caused the soil to loosen up.

Whatever be the cause, underpinning is absolutely necessary as the structure should be repaired or reinforced to avoid any catastrophe.
