What we fix
Foundation problems we see in San Bernardino
Sticking Doors and Windows
Ground under San Bernardino 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 likeCracked Bricks
41,024 homes in San Bernardino were finished before 1980, back when a footing drain was optional and backfill was rarely compacted.
What this looks likeUneven Floors
The typical San Bernardino house dates to 1972, old enough that the ground under it has been through every wet spring and dry summer since.

What is under the ground here
Sampled inside the San Bernardino city limits, the USDA survey reads Hanford at about 40 percent of the survey, with Tujunga and Soboba alongside it. Broken down by texture it is 100 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 1.14 percent here, which USDA reads as low shrink swell potential.
The housing stock
Most of what we walk into here was built in the 1980s, 11,804 homes, around a median build year of 1972. Pre 1980 construction accounts for 41,024 homes here, and that is the group where original drainage is usually the story. 25 percent of the housing here, 15,455 units, sits in buildings of five or more, so a fair share of local work is on shared structures rather than single family homes. 68 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
If you’re looking for an honest company you can trust, this is it!!! Brian N. came out to my home and did a very thorough inspection using their equipment. He was straightforward, explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, and gave us his honest opinion, which helped us a lot. In times like these, it’s rare to find people who are truly honest and not just trying to sell you something. I really appreciate Brian and this company for their integrity. Thank you again, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone.
Engineer came, looked at my retaining walls and said, “nothing to do here.” Really respect the honesty and coming out to look just to realize my walls are in good shape. Would definitely call again.
I had a problem and Brian came over to look at it. Brian was on time, clean cut and no pressure. He wasn’t in a rush to go to his next appointment. I felt very comfortable with him. I ended up not needing his services and he was honest about it. It was refreshing to have a quality person come out. If you have a foundation problem I recommend this company.
