The crawlspace support posts originally didnt have the seismic retrofit brackets that are shown in the after picture.
This before photo shows a homeowner's driveway that has a large slab that was lifted by tree roots nearby. This made the homeowner's driveway a safety hazard! The husband recently tripped over the slab and almost had a serious injury. Typically we would not handle a case like this because the tree would have to be removed in order to solve this problem which is not our scope of work. However, we decided after a conversation with the family's immediate safety is their top priority. As shown in the after photo we used PolyLevel to lift the slabs as much as we could so that the driveway can be more level. After the slab was stabilized, we then ground off the top of the excess concrete on the slab that caused the tripping issue. Even though the homeowners have the peace of mind that their concrete will now not be a safety hazard for their family. We did strongly encourage the family this is not a permanent fix because the tree will have to be removed. The wife was overwhelming happy with our honesty and communication with her home's issues. This is an excellent example of how we go the extra mile to communicate to our customers and show that we care about their safety.
The Before picture shows a home with a settling foundation on the right side of this home.
The After picture shows a installed Push Pier, that is stabilizing the sinking foundation.
This home had severe foundation issues, it required Saber to
install 16 2 ⅞" Helical Pier under foundation footing to load bearing stratum to stabilize the foundation and lift to maximum practical recovery.
The Before Picture shows what the homeowner found ,when they decided to remodel their home. Their home's foundation was starting to crumble.
The shifting soils, in Ventura, had caused voids under the foundation. The After Picture shows one, of several Push Piers, that were used to bring the foundation to a consistant elevation.
