In the building world, underpinning is a process in which you progress and also stabilise a foundation of a building which could be potentially risky if no performance was taken. What are the benefits of underpinning a building or buildings the building surely need the work doing to it? These maybe a few of the ask you may ask yourself if a surveyor tells you that your building needs underpinning. A few of the reasons and benefits you should consider are as follows...
1) The existing foundations are not strong / garage sufficient - underpinning will definite these problems.

2) The use of the building has changed - perhaps you have changed the purpose of a building, maybe from a house to a shop - underpinning will allow the building to take more pressure.
3) The soil properties that the building lies upon have changes - there could have been some movement in the ground, perhaps straight through subsidence - underpinning will help progress the building in this case.
4) New buildings or structures added to the surrounding area. If a new house is build next to an existing property, then underpinning maybe needed to progress the first property.
5) Land cost has increased. If the price of land increases by a great deal, it maybe cheaper to use underpinning with a view to improving the existing property (perhaps adding a new floor) rather than purchasing more land.
As you can see, there are many distinct reasons why you should consider underpinning rather than neglecting the reasons for using it.
