What we fix
Foundation problems we see in Riverside
Sticking Doors and Windows
Ground under Riverside is mapped sand, with a low shrink swell rating. Soil like that tends to compress rather than swell, which is why what we find here is usually settlement rather than heave.
What this looks likeImproper Drainage
54,052 homes in Riverside were finished before 1980, back when a footing drain was optional and backfill was rarely compacted.
What this looks likeUneven Floors
The typical Riverside house dates to 1976, old enough that the ground under it has been through every wet spring and dry summer since.

Why foundations move in Riverside
What is under the ground here
Sampled inside the Riverside city limits, the USDA survey reads Hanford at about 40 percent of the survey, with Arlington and Vista alongside it. The texture split is 20 percent clay and 80 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 1.98 percent here, which USDA reads as low shrink swell potential. The sample inside the city runs 20 percent clay against 13 percent across Riverside County, so the ground here is heavier than the county average.
The age of the housing
Most of what we walk into here was built in the 1970s, 16,812 homes, around a median build year of 1976. 54,052 of those homes predate 1980, which is where we most often find footing drains that were never installed and backfill that was never compacted. 24 percent of the housing here, 21,969 units, sits in buildings of five or more, so a fair share of local work is on shared structures rather than single family homes. 73 percent of owner occupied homes here carry a mortgage, which is usually why a lender or an appraiser is the first to ask about a crack.

What California customers say
Amazing experience and exceptional work! Stephen and Brandon Z communicated throughout the process creating ease of comfort around the foundation work.
Excellent Company. I had our foundation stabilized using deep injection polyurethane. They came out gave me a timely estimate, coordinated when the work was going to be done. On the day of project, Stephen did the work. Extremely tidy and explained what he was doing thoroughly. When he was finished, he left the jobsite spotless. Far exceeded my typical contractor expectations.
I had a great experience with the foundation inspection. Tom was friendly, punctual, and very knowledgeable. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I understood what he was looking for during the inspection. Thankfully, there were no issues with the foundation, but he gave me helpful recommendations on how to move forward with the drainage issues around my home. He also pointed out a few things to keep an eye on in the future and encouraged me to reach out if I ever had questions or concerns. Overall, Tom was very genuine and informative. I really appreciated his honesty and the time he took to walk me through everything. Highly recommend.
