Fully demolish existing basement entrance and walls and dispose (complete removal/replacement of all basement entrance walls). Dig down to footings of structure by hand and install three underpins to engineer specified dimensions. Once cured, install telescopic jack to secure the above concrete pad and install 6” of 3/4“ gravel base throughout the excavation. Install 4” of styrofoam SM insulation and 15M rebar in mesh link pattern as to engineer specifications. Install concrete footing and float.

Once cured, begin reconstruction of complete basement entrance walls with 10“ cinderblock, blok-lock and 15M vertical rebar installations in specified block cores.
