We are a relatively small (14 person) construction company located in Santa Cruz, in business since 1993. Please visit us at avalonstructural.com.

"The foundation of our home in Oak Hills (North Monterey County) was settling. The repair would be a complex undertaking. My wife and I had two separate contractors come in to evaluate and bid on the foundation repair. Both of them said that the job was beyond their capabilities, despite having repaired numerous other foundations. After a prolonged search, we found two companies that were willing to submit bids for the work. One company was from Livermore and the other was Avalon Structural out of Santa Cruz. The bids were close to each other in cost, but the Avalon bid incorporated a lot more structural reinforcement of the foundation. The foundation repair company from Livermore was going to use a coiled steel support and would not guarantee that they could get the foundation level. Avalon Structural used an inordinate amount of galvanized steel pilings driven deep until they met the required resistance to prevent settling. This is a much stronger type of foundation support. In addition to the steel pilings, Avalon’s bid also included a massive steel reinforced concrete support that ran about half the length of the house. Avalon also guaranteed that they could get the foundation level. We decided to go with Avalon and are very happy we did. Roger, the owner of Avalon Structural, met with me personally. We crawled under the house together as he explained in detail the plans for the repair that had been submitted by the structural engineer, his son Dylan. The construction crew was hard working, pleasant and clean. By clean I mean that the construction area was always left clean and organized at the end of the day. The repair took over a month with a daily crew of four to six men. When the work was complete, our floors and foundation were absolutely level. Now, approximately two years after the completion of work, our foundation has not moved at all. As a result of our experience with Avalon Structural, I can and do enthusiastically recommend them to anyone considering a foundation repair in the area. I don’t think you will find a company that can do a better job than Roger and his team at Avalon Structural. Five out of five stars! Dave Johnson Oak Hills, North Monterey County."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Any issue that affects the structural integrity or soundness of a home is considered a structural issue. In addition to foundation cracks, other signs of structural issues include roof leaks, bowing walls, sloping floors, gaps around windows and doors, and more.

Water can seep into porous materials like wood beams, floor joists, and roof rafters within minutes, but they’ll need to see prolonged exposure before you have structural damage. Mold can start growing within 24 hours, and mold can eat away at the structural components over time. Wood rot is more of a concern, though. Wet and dry rot are fungal infections that set in in moist conditions and rapidly deteriorate wood, causing major structural damage within just a few months in some cases.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

A 4-inch-thick concrete slab can support around 4,000 pounds per square foot if a contractor reinforces the slab with rebar, while that same slab without reinforcements will support closer to 1,000 pounds. For the purposes of a patio, 4 inches in thickness without reinforcement should suffice unless you’re installing heavy kitchen equipment or a hot tub on it. In those cases, reinforcing your slab and sticking with 4 inches of thickness should provide plenty of strength.
