"I recently hired Just Stamping Concrete for a landscaping project, and I must say that I was blown away by their work. Their team is highly skilled and knowledgeable, and they truly transformed my outdoor space into a beautiful oasis."
"Genesis and their team were amazing! They worked so hard and so quickly and were very professional and thorough. They definitely know how to lay concrete while paying attention to all the details. I love how they cleaned up so well after the job was finished. I would definitely recommend them to anyone."
"Within a few months of buying our first home, we noticed some troubling signs: bedroom doors swinging open or closed on their own, “bubbles” and creaks in sections of the newly renovated floors, and significant cracks splitting the concrete in our garage. Although two general inspectors assured us that our house was level, we reached out to Bay Area Underpinning (BAU) for a more detailed assessment—and we're so glad we did! Inspector Christopher Murray conducted a meticulous inspection with radar equipment. While technically our house was level, Christopher uncovered that our foundation was sinking by inches in multiple areas, explaining the issues we were experiencing. Though the news and associated repair cost were a bit daunting as new homeowners, Christopher’s knowledge, professionalism, and clear answers to all our questions reassured us that we were in good hands. With confidence, we decided to proceed with BAU for the repair. Fredy Mora and his crew did exceptional work with the demo of the old concrete slabs and the prep for lifting, working quickly and efficiently. Fredy’s positive attitude made the process smooth, and his team was thorough and dedicated from start to finish. A special thank you to our lift project manager, Kevin Gaeden. Kevin was an outstanding communicator, keeping us fully informed and addressing every question promptly. His attentiveness made a huge difference throughout the project, and we felt reassured every step of the way. Esteban Ibarra, a crewmember on the lift team, also did superb work, handling the hands-on details with skill and care. Both Kevin and Esteban even went above and beyond, taking time to fix a jammed bedroom door that had shifted with the house lift. While foundation issues are never easy, we couldn’t have asked for a better team. We’re incredibly grateful to Bay Area Underpinning for their expertise, professionalism, and exceptional service. Thank you, BAU!"
"A fantastic experience from start to finish, BGL transformed our vague intentions into concrete form. We needed a soil and grass lawn converted to a rock garden with undemanding but beautiful flora. An adjacent ramp and slab needed to be replaced to correct their inclines. BGL rapidly produced a striking design and then enacted it rapidly and thoroughly. In addition to the concrete work, stone walkways were placed and a drip irrigation system was installed and integrated."
"Excellent Service from planning through Execution and installation to final fine tuning. The folks communicated well and explained every detail of the step. Got permit and inspection done. It was seamless. Thanks. R."
"Mark came by for quote the same weekend we inquired about the driveway and Sai followed up with a phone call. Initially we were going to do an addition but after we thought about it and talked more with Mark we decided to redo the whole driveway which had cracks and was a combination of concrete and asphalt. Sai was super responsive to my worries one the work was going to start. The job was done quickly even with the change in plans so we would not be without a driveway for long. They finished the demo and set up within 2 days and on the 3rd working day they were ready to pour the concrete. We love our new driveway with stamped concrete. We have neighbors passing by already complimenting us on the driveway too."
"Mr. Tupou and his team are professional, timely and produce excellent quality concrete work. I have consistently hired this company for a variety of jobs and have had superior results each time. From slabs, to stains, to resurfacing, this is a reliable quality company gets the job done right."
At Norcal Foundation Support, we specialize in stabilizing homes and businesses throughout Northern California. We specialize in primary foundation damage repair of all types. We provide solutions for failing foundations, including sinking or settling foundations, sagging crawl space, and crawl space encapsulation and insulation. Our expertise also includes concrete lifting and leveling of slabs, driveways and sidewalks.
Concrete leveling can last anywhere from five to 10 years or more, and in some cases, it can be a permanent solution. The longevity depends on the method used and whether the underlying cause of the sinking is addressed. For example, mudjacking typically lasts five to 10 years, while polyjacking can last for 20 years or more. It's best to consult a professional for an accurate timeline based on your specific situation and any factors that could cause the issue to recur.
Address drainage issues, avoid heavy loads, and seal cracks to prevent future settling.
There is no real alternative to underpinning, although mudjacking and polyjacking are other repair methods that can add support from underneath your foundation. Rather than placing supportive piers under your structure, these involve pumping a material under your slab to lift a sunken section back into its original position. Polyjacking, in particular, is sometimes a suitable solution for stabilization issues under slab foundations, but underpinning is often accepted as the best and most permanent solution.
Mudjacking is suitable for sidewalks, driveways, patios, and nearly all exterior flat structures. However, it may not suit severely damaged or heavily cracked areas.
A slurry of cement, sand, and water is injected beneath the concrete to lift and stabilize it.
