Whether your foundation lies on flat earth or a hillside, Ikon is committed to creating only the securest of foundations for your project.

Caissons
Used primarily for hillside construction, Ikon’s knowledge and experience allow for the most effective application of the Grading Observation’s findings.  Through pre-fabricated cages order through existing manufacturers, or even custom created cages, Ikon customers rest assured their homes and businesses are built with stability in their foundations.

Block Wall Construction
Aside from providing the obvious structural attributes, block wall construction offers an opportunity to add a decorative touch. Ikon constructs block walls first, with an attention to structural integrity. All our cells are clean, along with the rebar and keyways; further Ikon vibrates all our blocks to insure maximum concrete with minimal air pockets.

From color, custom wall caps, various finishes, stone veneer and even adding design, Ikon appreciates the many options available to meet its customer’s desires.

Ikon focuses on how best to meet the customer’s desires while balancing practical building concerns.
