What we fix
Foundation problems we see in Cerritos
Drywall Cracks
The USDA survey across Los Angeles County reads rock and rates its shrink swell potential low. Ground that does not swell much can still move: it settles, and it moves fastest where water is allowed to collect against a footing.
What this looks likeImproper Drainage
The pre 1980 stock in Cerritos runs to 13,584 homes, which is where we most often find drainage that was never engineered.
What this looks likeRaised Foundation Settlement
The typical Cerritos house dates to 1973, old enough that the ground under it has been through every wet spring and dry summer since.

Why foundations move in Cerritos
What is under the ground here
The survey inside the city limits reads as urban fill rather than a natural series, which is normal for ground this built up, so the honest figure is the county one: across Los Angeles County the USDA survey is Millsholm family at about 9 percent of the survey, with Trigo family and Rock outcrop alongside it. Broken down by texture it is 14 percent clay and 16 percent sand. Linear extensibility, the measure of how much a soil swells when it takes on water and shrinks when it dries, is weighted at 2.58 percent here, which USDA reads as low shrink swell potential.
What these homes were built like
The 1970s put up more homes than any other decade, 8,467 of them, and the median year built is 1973. Pre 1980 construction accounts for 13,584 homes here, and that is the group where original drainage is usually the story. Mortgages sit on 59 percent of the owner occupied homes in Cerritos.

What California customers say
Received a estimate for foundation repair Mark was very informative and did a great thorough job! Would definitely hire him when we are ready to do the work.
We couldn't be happier with the results !if you're looking for a trustworthy construction company, this is the one to call.
Matt and Dillon and the whole Dalinghaus crew did a fantastic job on my foundation. They went above and beyond, putting long hours everyday. The superintendent James is a foundation magician. When I left my house on Labor Day of 2023, I never thought I would be able to return to my home again. Thank you Dalinghaus for giving my home back to me!
