A foundation specialist for Amsterdam.

FunderingHerstel Amsterdam focuses on one thing: investigating and restoring the foundations of buildings in Amsterdam and the region — carefully, with evidence, and with respect for occupants and neighbours.

Brand and company

FunderingHerstel Amsterdam is the trade name under which we offer foundation restoration. We work from a clear conviction: you don't restore a foundation on instinct, but on investigation, calculation and craftsmanship.

We would rather give an honest ‘we don't know yet’ than a promise we cannot substantiate.

Values

What we stand for

Evidence-based

Every method and price can be traced back to investigation and design.

Transparent

You see what is certain, what is an assumption and what still needs investigating.

Careful

Temporary support and phasing are never an afterthought.

Good neighbours

Building in the city means respecting neighbours, street and water.

Technical rigour

How we work technically

Foundation restoration is structural work. That's why we follow a fixed way of working.

  1. 01

    Investigation before design

    Without insight into piles, timber and soil we make no statement about a method.

  2. 02

    Designed by an engineer

    Calculations and drawings come from a structural engineer; we execute according to that design.

  3. 03

    Phasing with support

    Load-bearing elements are never removed together without temporary support.

  4. 04

    Recorded

    Measurements, checks and handover are documented for you and any future buyers.
