"In October we contacted Groundwork’s for a home inspection of the foundation. We were contacted by Darren Breen. We explained to him our concerns and after his inspection, he explained our options, We decided that our best option was foundation stabilization. Darren explained this procedure to us in detail and a date for this job to be done was set up for February. In late November we were advised the necessary City permits has been obtained and the job could be started December. We were contacted by Amanda, project manager advising the date the work crew would be arriving and the project would be completed in two days, as advised the crew arrived on the assigned date. The crew was courteous and professional they answered any questions my wife and I had. The projected as stated was completed in two days. The crew did a good job cleaning up when the project was completed. Everyone that we had contact with from Groundworks were very professional and kept us apprised of everything that was being done. It was a pleasure doing business with all involved, A Job Well Done"

Types of Foundation Damage in South San Francisco

Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in South San Francisco

Soil Settlement

Shifting or sinking soil under your foundation causes uneven settling, which can lead to cracks and structural issues.

Moisture Changes

Seasonal soil changes, like expansion during wet periods and shrinking during dry spells, put stress on your foundation, leading to cracks and instability.

Tree Roots

Nearby growing tree roots can shift the soil beneath your foundation, causing cracks and uneven support.

Hydrostatic Pressure

Saturated soil creates hydrostatic pressure, pushing against foundation walls and causing cracks or bowing over time.

Plumbing Leaks

Plumbing leaks near your foundation can saturate the soil, weakening its stability and leading to foundation movement or cracks.

Temperature Changes

Freeze-thaw cycles cause the soil around your home to expand and contract, which can cause for your foundation to shift and cause damage.

Climate Conditions

Heavy rains or drought can cause soil to shift, leading to cracks and instability in your foundation. Foundation repair restores stability, protecting your home from further damage and ensuring long-term safety.
