At BC Foundations, every project tells a story. From steep slopes in the Interior to challenging soils along the coast, we bring engineered solutions to homeowners, contractors, and engineers across British Columbia. Here are a few examples of how our team has recently helped clients secure their homes and buildings:
Kamloops – Anchoring a Home on a Steep Slope
In Kamloops, we were called to assist with a home perched on a steep slope. The challenge was stability — the soil conditions required a deep anchoring system to secure the structure safely. Using our in-house drill rig and engineered slope anchoring system, our team installed anchors that tied the foundation into stable ground. The result: a safe, durable solution that allows the homeowners to enjoy their view without worrying about slope movement.
Vernon – Helical Piles for Settlement Repair
In Vernon, in the Okanagan, a homeowner was dealing with foundation settlement that caused cracks in their drywall and uneven floors. Our solution was to install engineered helical piles beneath the home, transferring the load to stable soils far below. These piles not only stopped the settlement but provided a long-term foundation system that will protect the property for years to come.
Salmon Arm – Geotechnical Assessment and Slope Stability
In Salmon Arm, a steep waterfront property required a geotechnical assessment before construction could begin. Our engineers conducted a slope stability review, recommended drainage improvements, and provided a design incorporating helical piles to stabilize the building site. The combination of geotechnical expertise and deep foundation design gave the client the green light to proceed with confidence.
Kelowna – Structural Engineering for a Custom Build
In Kelowna, a contractor requested our help on a custom home where structural engineering expertise was essential. We designed and certified the deep foundation system, provided sealed drawings, and conducted professional field reviews. The result was a smooth approval process and a home built on a solid foundation — literally and structurally.
Strong, Reliable Foundations — Anywhere in BC
These are just a few examples of how we’re serving communities across British Columbia — from Kamloops and Vernon to Salmon Arm, Kelowna, the Lower Mainland, Greater Vancouver, the Sunshine Coast, and as far north as Quesnel and Prince George.
Wherever you are in BC, BC Foundations is ready with engineered solutions to meet the challenge — whether it’s anchoring a home on a slope, installing helical piles for settlement, performing geotechnical assessments, or providing structural engineering.
