Shoring is vital during new construction and structural alterations as it provides temporary or permanent supports to prevent collapse. RAR Construction Management is one of the most reliable shoring companies Toronto homeowners, developers, and builders can count on. Our shoring services include inspections, engineering reports, and engineering stamps. From piles and lagging to caisson walls, our team does it all with efficiency and professionalism.
Temporary Shoring Toronto
Temporary shoring support structures and slopes during specific construction stages. This includes foundation work, such as basement underpinning, as well as excavation and demolition. Temporary supports safeguard construction crews and the surrounding area from soil and/or structural collapse.
Permanent Shoring Toronto
Permanent shoring provides long-term structural stability in cases where continuous structural support or soil retention is required. The supports stay in place after construction is complete. This type of shoring is commonly used in basements, bridges, and retaining walls.

Shoring Services We Provide
The two types of shoring services we provide at RAR Construction Management are piles and lagging, as well as caisson walls. Here's a detailed look into each:
Piles and Lagging
Also referred to as soldier pile and lagging, this is a type of shoring used during excavation. The process involves lowering or driving vertical piles, typically steel piles, in regular intervals into the excavation site. Lagging, which may be steel, wood, or concrete panels, are then inserted between the piles horizontally.
Caisson Walls
Caisson walls have interlocking concrete piles that form a continuous wall. First, soldier piles are drilled into the ground, then filler piles are inserted between them. Each pile is filled with concrete to create a solid wall. Caisson walls retain soil during construction, effectively preventing ground movement. This is a common shoring method for deep excavation projects.
