"I'm a Realtor that had a problem: the house I was selling had a major foundation problem. Usually, this can be death to selling a house. I researched different contractors and companies for my out-of-state seller. Groundworks came out and gave a very detailed estimate, explaining exactly what they would do, how they would fix the problem, and what equipment and technology they would use. The seller agreed this was the right solution, and we moved forward. Groundworks took care of everything, including permitting, making the process easy. Immediately after receiving the permits, Groundworks sent up to Monterey a fantastic team of three - Zachary Hersey, Michael Hersey, and Kai Simpson. All three of these young men were excellent. They worked hard, long hours, communicated clearly and consistently - every day I was sent texts or calls, along with photos of the work that was done. They endeavored to leave the home and yard better than how they found it - I was so impressed. I was able to share the progress each day with my seller. And after the work was done, the structure was stabilized, the problems fixed. Now, I can put the house back on the market, knowing the new buyers have a wonderful home with a great warranty on the foundation work. -- I want to send an extra shout-out to Zachary. He was such a pleasant, easy to talk to young man. He answered all questions, fixed any problems immediately, and honestly I think he'd make an excellent sales-person for this company. Being a single lady, I felt very comfortable around all three of them. Neighbors came out to ask Zachary's opinions on their homes too, and I'll bet he could have signed up another customer or two who would have benefited from what Groundworks offers. If the owners of the company ever asked my opinion of this 3-person crew with Zachary at the lead, I'd say they should do whatever they can to hang onto them - Zachary, Michael, and Kai would have made them proud! I've already recommended Groundworks to other Realtors in my office, and I would have them ask specifically for Zachary's crew if they can!"

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in San Dimas

Cracks appearing in your walls or uneven floors can often be traced back to problems with the foundation. Homes in and around San Dimas experience unique challenges due to the local environmental conditions that affect soil and moisture distribution. The area's climate can lead to oscillating moisture levels in the soil, causing it to expand and contract. These fluctuations, coupled with the naturally clay-heavy soils found in some neighborhoods, can lead to a variety of foundation issues over time. The shifting and moving of soil underneath your home make it more susceptible to settling in an uneven manner leading to alignment problems.

These ongoing changes put pressure on your foundation and can result in issues like sticking doors, window misalignment, cracks in walls, and water pooling in basements or crawl spaces. Such signs indicate that the structural integrity of your home is being stressed. It is essential to identify and address these warning signs early. By understanding the local environmental factors and how they interact with your foundation, you can help mitigate further damage. This proactive awareness aids in preserving the structural safety and longevity of your home in San Dimas, avoiding costly repairs in the future.

FAQs

Yes, concrete lifting is generally more affordable than completely replacing a sunken concrete slab. The lifting process involves injecting material to raise the existing slab, which is less labor-intensive and uses fewer materials than replacement.

Adding more concrete on top of sunken areas is not recommended, as it does not address the underlying issue and may add unnecessary weight, exacerbating the problem. Instead, lifting the existing concrete addresses the root cause by supporting and stabilizing the slab.

Yes, uneven concrete slabs can be dangerous as they pose tripping hazards and can lead to falls and injuries. Additionally, they may cause damage to vehicles or other equipment if the slabs are part of a driveway or parking area.

In San Dimas, the soil composition can significantly affect concrete stability, particularly if clay or other expansive materials are present. These types of soils can expand and contract with moisture changes, leading to shifting and uneven concrete surfaces.

Yes, concrete lifting can assist in correcting water drainage issues by leveling concrete surfaces. This helps ensure proper runoff and prevents water from pooling, which can potentially worsen both the concrete conditions and nearby structures.
