On-Grade Vs. Structural Garage Floor Foundation

The main difference between on grade and structural garage floor foundations is that an on grade foundation is built directly on the ground while a structural foundation will have a room under it. On grade foundations are typically used in areas where the ground is level and stable, and the majority of homes in Ottawa have a on-grade foundation.

The type of foundation you choose for your garage will depend on several factors, including your design, budget, local building codes and whether the space is for residential or commercial use.

The first step in repairing a garage is to identify the cause of the problem. If the cause is soil erosion, the architect will recommend measures to stabilize the soil and prevent further erosion. If the cause is physical damage, the architect will determine the best way to repair the damage and reinforce the structure.
