What do you need to consider before we begin building your foundation in Stockholm?
PLANNING & PREPARATION FOR FOUNDATION WORK IN STOCKHOLM
As a full-service contractor, we take responsibility for the entire process – from applications and project planning to fully completed foundations in Stockholm.
You don’t need to worry about technical details, permits or coordinating different trades. We can also assist with masonry, structural work and new construction if you want your project delivered as a complete turnkey solution.
Our role is to ensure that your foundation work is safe, efficient and correctly executed from the very first step.
-
01 Building permits, demolition and project start
To begin work on foundations in Stockholm, valid permits are required: a building permit, start approval, or a demolition permit if an existing structure must be removed. You will also need project drawings. We guide you through the entire process to ensure everything is correct before the groundwork begins.
-
02 Quotation and cost assessment
We prepare a detailed quotation within 4 days for smaller projects and slightly longer for larger ones. The price depends on whether you want us to perform only the concrete foundation pouring, or also groundwork in Stockholm, installations, excavation or demolition. Everything is presented clearly and transparently.
-
03 Planning, scheduling and agreement
Once the quotation is approved, we sign the contract and schedule the entire project. We book machinery, order materials and plan logistics so the work on foundations in Stockholm can be carried out efficiently and without delays.
-
04 Site setting-out and material deliveries
A surveyor marks out the exact position of the building. Meanwhile, formwork, insulation, reinforcement and other components needed for the foundation are delivered. We ensure everything is ready before upcoming groundwork in Stockholm.
-
05 Groundwork, excavation and connections
We perform all necessary civil engineering and groundwork in Stockholm: excavation, soil removal, compaction, drainage, stormwater systems and utility connections. If required, we also carry out ground reinforcement. For projects involving pouring a slab for an Attefall house, we adjust the construction according to all regulations.
-
06 Insulation, formwork, reinforcement and concrete pouring
We install insulation, build the formwork, reinforce the structure, and place pipework and optional underfloor heating. We then perform the concrete foundation pour using high-quality concrete and ensure proper finishing. Finally, a surveyor performs a position check, and the slab is ready for the next stage of construction.

FAQS
1. What types of house foundations are used in Sweden?
The most common foundation types in Sweden are:
Slab-on-grade (platta på mark) – the most stable and popular solution, a reinforced concrete slab poured directly on prepared ground.
Crawl space (krypgrund) – a ventilated foundation with space under the house.
Pier foundation (plintgrund) – concrete piers supporting the structure, often used for smaller buildings.
Basement/souterrain foundation – adapted for sloped or uneven ground.
We help you choose the right foundation type depending on soil conditions, load requirements, and building design.
2. What is the difference between slab-on-grade and a crawl space?
Slab-on-grade is warm, stable, and energy-efficient — ideal for villas and Attefall houses.
Crawl space is cheaper in material but requires proper ventilation and moisture control.
Overall, slab-on-grade generally offers lower moisture risk and is often recommended in the Stockholm area.3. What does it cost to pour a slab for an Attefall house?
Many clients search for “cost to pour a slab for an Attefall house” — the typical total price ranges between 140,000 – 260,000 SEK, depending on excavation, drainage, insulation, and concrete volume.
4. How much does it cost to pour a slab for a villa or extension?
The price varies depending on slab thickness, reinforcement, soil conditions, and load requirements.
We provide a fixed quote after reviewing drawings and the site plan.5. What is included when you build a house foundation?
Our full foundation service includes:
Excavation & ground preparation
Drainage & base layers
Insulation (cellular plastic)
Reinforcement
Concrete pouring (slab)
Surface finishing and leveling
We handle the entire process until the slab is ready for construction.
6. How long does it take to pour a concrete slab?
The full process of pouring a concrete slab (excavation + preparation + pouring + curing) typically takes 7–21 days, depending on project size.
7. Do I need a building permit to pour a slab for an Attefall house?
Usually, only a notification to the municipality is required, but they may ask for:
A control plan
Site plan
Material inventory (incl. asbestos if applicable)
Ground level drawings
We assist with all required documentation.
8. Can you help with design and structural engineering?
Yes, we cooperate with structural engineers and provide all documentation needed for a safe and compliant construction start.
9. When should you choose a pier foundation instead of slab-on-grade?
A pier foundation is suitable for:
Plots with significant slopes
Decks, small cottages, and Attefall houses over 30 m
Situations where lower cost is more important than thermal comfort
A slab-on-grade, however, offers superior stability, insulation, and comfort.
10. What is a cellular plastic foundation (cellplastgrund)?
A cellular plastic (EPS) foundation is a slab where the formwork and insulation are made from thick EPS blocks. This provides:
Quick installation
Very high insulation performance
Minimal thermal bridges
It’s ideal for energy-efficient buildings.
11. How do I request a quote for a foundation?
Send us your site plan and drawings, and we will quickly calculate a price based on the cost of pouring a concrete slab under your specific ground conditions.
