Before & After Photos

A homeowner in San Gabriel, CA, had lived in a 1906-built home for 20 years with his wife. Concerned about the home's ability to withstand earthquakes due to its age, he sought a trustworthy company to reinforce the structure. Through the Earthquake Brace + Bolt program, he connected with Saber Foundation Repair. After a detailed inspection, a seismic retrofit was performed to strengthen the foundation and secure the home against future earthquakes. Now, the historic home is safer and better equipped to endure seismic events, providing peace of mind to the homeowner.

A homeowner in Dana Point, CA, grew concerned after heavy rains led to a musty odor in the house and creaking floors. Seeking a solution, the homeowner contacted Saber Foundation Repair. After a thorough inspection, our design specialist identified moisture issues in the crawlspace as the cause and recommended encapsulating the space. The homeowner agreed, and our team swiftly completed the encapsulation, eliminating the odor and stabilizing the floors, ensuring a healthier and more secure home environment.

The homeowner’s porch was uneven, causing water to pool against the foundation. This issue led to concerns about potential damage and required immediate attention.

Saber Foundation Repair addressed the problem by:

1. Stabilizing the Concrete: PolyLevel® foam injection was used to lift and level the porch.
2. Protecting the Concrete: NexusPro® joint sealant was applied to prevent water infiltration.
3. Tinting the Concrete: DecoShield™ was used to enhance the appearance and protect the surface.

The porch and driveway were effectively stabilized and leveled. The DecoShield™ tint provided both aesthetic appeal and added protection, ensuring the homeowner's property is now both visually appealing and safeguarded against future water damage.

The before photo shows a crawl space with unsupported posts. Because the posts are unsupported the floor is starting to gas as the posts shift with time and seismic activity. In the after photo, we installed post caps to ensure the posts stay in place and can be more stable during a seismic event.

The homeowner had lived in her 1920s Los Angeles home for over 20 years, but shortly after moving in, she noticed problems—sticking doors, windows that wouldn't open, and bouncy floors. Over time, these issues worsened as the home’s foundation began to fail due to aging wooden posts in the crawlspace.

To restore stability, we replaced the deteriorating 4x4 wood posts with new ones, installed a metal supplemental beam, and added SmartJack® adjustable supports to lift and secure the sagging floors. These adjustments provided the reinforcement her home desperately needed.

With the new supports in place, the homeowner’s floors are now level and solid, and her doors and windows operate smoothly once again. The SmartJack® system and structural repairs ensured long-term stability, giving the homeowner peace of mind.
