Our approach

Understand before acting

Every crack, settlement or instability has a cause. We analyse the structure and its surroundings before defining the most appropriate solution, working alongside engineering firms and experts.

Diagnosis and analysis

Geotechnical analysis to define the right foundation solution (micropiles, soil nailing).

Design & Quote

Load calculations, choice of reinforcement and a transparent costed proposal.

Execution & Monitoring

Carrying out the works in compliance with safety standards, followed by site handover.

Your underpinning partner

Cracks appearing? Is your ground moving?

We step in to save and future-proof your building assets using proven micropile and connecting-beam techniques.

  • Ten-year structural warranty (décennale).
  • Compact drilling equipment suited to confined spaces.
  • On-time delivery.

Structural strengthening

Strengthening existing structures: foundations, floors, load-bearing walls, before renovation or an extra storey.

Floor strengthening

Strengthening timber, concrete and steel-joist floors: change of use, sagging floors, renovation.

Concrete & masonry repair

Repair of damaged concrete and masonry: corroded reinforcement, cracks, joints, old walls.

Load-bearing wall openings

The director

Know-how born on site

At the head of Sirianni Fondations & Travaux Spéciaux, which he founded in 2023, Antonio Sirianni brings more than fifteen years of experience in special works and soil investigation. A qualified site manager trained in Italy, he first learned the trade within the family business, before continuing in France as a site manager at SOL ESSAIS (2014–2018), in direct contact with boreholes and French and Monegasque geotechnics — a hands-on schooling from which he draws one conviction: understand the ground before acting.

With a solid grounding in civil engineering and a sound understanding of how structures behave, he has mastered difficult-access interventions, where conventional plant cannot reach. Running every site with the same demand for quality, safety and durability, he is now rounding out his career with an engineering degree specialising in Building and Civil Engineering, currently in preparation at the CNAM.

“Sirianni Fondations: a human-sized company that listens to its clients in order to bring quality solutions to their various challenges.”
