It's important to ensure that the foundation of a house is constructed and maintained properly to guarantee its stability and safety. In earthquake-prone areas like California, poorly positioned homes have frequently collapsed, while those built on Sure Safe Foundations have remained undamaged.

"This team arrived for work in the morning, and was complete by lunch. Outside wall repairs on MidCentury Modern, and full assessment to bring house up to modern seismic codes. Great feedback to close out, plus a solid warranty. These folks specialize in crawl space homes and keeping them solid."

Berkley Construction is a full service construction company. Our projects range from small remodels to new construction in both residential and commecial fields. We also focus on high performance construction including energy efficiency and alternative energy sources. We repair foundations, upgrade electrical systems, test homes performance according to Building Performance Institute standards. We are partners with the California Center for Sustainable Energy and the Upgrade California program. We can help you find the right design partners as well. Do not make the mistake of doing all the design before you include some building professionals in that process. Having a team that includes architects, builders, plumbers, HVAC professionals and electricians will save you time and money. We do the majority of our work with our own people and really feel committed to building structures that will perform at a high level for the next century, not the next 5 years!

"Fantastic!!! I cannot speak highly enough of the guys and gals at Berkley Construction. After dealing with some, we'll say, less than competent construction companies, these guys were a god send. Organized, communicative and so easy to deal with right from the start, they made every step of the process so much easier and more smooth than it could have been otherwise. You should at the very least include them in your bid gathering, as I think they will blow you away with their competence, something that is sadly rare in this field."

A DUIN-IT Roofing & Construction, Inc. of Valley Center, California, provides expert contracting services and specializes in roof repairs and home renovations.

"We recently completed a second floor deck project on our home in Encinitas which included a full solid waterproof deck replacement, TimberTech, railing and other improvements. This project was made more challenging given the age of the home and state of some of the materials based on where we live closer to the ocean. Rob, Adam and team were incredible every step of the way, including communication and professionalism. They were able to work around challenges, come up with cost effective and creative solutions and generally keep us informed about the various parts of the projects as we moved along. They took extra measures to keep the working area clean during the entirety of the project. I would definitely hire this company for any future improvements to our home. Thanks guys!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

No, your basement dehumidifier doesn’t need to be on 24/7. While it’s an excellent tool for tackling damp, musty air, especially in humid seasons, leaving it running nonstop can backfire. Over-drying the space can mess with your sinuses, warp wood, and even crack certain materials. Instead, only use your humidifier when moisture levels rise above 50%, and then give it a break when the humidity levels drop.

Overwatering can cause issues like water pooling and drainage problems. To prevent overwatering, monitor your soil levels on a regular basis and change your watering schedule as necessary.

Yes, these services often increase home value by preventing moisture-related issues and enhancing the usable space in basements or crawlspaces.

Finishing an unfinished basement adds the most value, with an average return of 70% or $22,400. A bathroom addition in the basement will provide an ROI of 75%, but the higher cost will leave you with a lower actual return of $9,000, on average. Finishing a basement and adding a kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom to rent the space will leave you with the highest possible ROI, as you could see well over 100% if you rent the space out long-term.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.
