I've lived in Wildomar my whole life.  I was born in Compton, but moved out here when I was 5.  I like sports and I'm a huge Dodgers & Lakers fan, so 2020 was a good year for me.  I love to grill and spend time with my family.

When I'm not working I love to spend time with my two loves... my fiance and my dog.

Axle started dabbling in construction as a young kid with his grandfather.  Lee Wagner has been doing all types of construction work for well over 30 years.  Axle learned a little bit from various trades as a young kid and has always excelled quickly in his challenges.  After a couple of years in college he decided to go back to his roots in the construction industry.  Axle was born in the state of Washington and enjoys spending time with his family.  He strives to be the best example as a father and husband as possible.

I started working in the construction industry for a company that installed ATM’s. I have also worked in the casino business and have helped run Comic Con shows in Hawaii and in Texas. My dream is to go back to school and get my BSN to become a NICU nurse. I enjoy working in my garden and cooking with the fruit and vegetables I grow.

Carlos has been working with foundations since 2008. He began in Iowa installing everything from waterproofing & sumps to piers & tie-backs in basement walls. After migrating west to Southern California he continued working in the foundation repair industry, growing his knowledge of the issues that many homes face. He started out as a crew support in 2008, became a foreman in 2009, and then enlisted in the US Army in 2012. Continuing his career he joined the Dalinghaus family where he is currently a Field Manager. He states that everyday is a learning experience as he continues to help not only serve his country but also the families and households experiencing foundation damage.

Since joining the Dalinghaus Construction Team, Carlos has completed extensive training on product knowledge, installation procedures, and understanding the value of the services that we provide to you and your project.

Having the stigma to “Never Settle” with sub par recommendations, repairs, or craftsmanship is part of why Carlos chooses to treat his customer’s like they were one of his own family. Carlos looks forward to working with you on your construction project.
