A man recently purchased a Santa Ana, Ca. home with plans to renovate, 'flip', and sell the home. Upon further inspection at the time of purchase, it was found that the home and the neighboring tennis court on the property had experienced severe settlement and sinking. The homeowner was unaware of exactly what problems had caused the cracks in the interior and exterior walls and stucco of the home since it was built in 1989. The tennis court was found to have sinking slabs, creating poor drainage and trip hazards for anyone looking to buy the home and enjoy the sport. Upon calling Saber for an inspection and estimate for repairs, the homeowner stressed that he wanted to boost the resale value of the home once all renovations and improvements were made. During their inspection, Saber found that one area of the home itself had settled. It was determined that 12 288 push piers around the compromised area of foundation would prevent further sinking and lift the home to maximum practical recovery. PolyLevel expanding foam beneath the slab for soil stabilization would also aid in the prevention of further sinking. Each PolyLevel port was spaced 4' apart on the floor of the home and the piers were placed at the base of the foundation's footing, around the perimeter of the sinking area of the home's foundation. PolyLevel was also installed underneath areas of the tennis court through dime-sized ports that were later sealed. The production crew was able to level the court slabs, eliminating trip hazards and areas where water pooled after rain.   With the leveled tennis court and stabilized area of the home's foundation, the property's chances of being resold with increased value were improved. The homeowner was confident that he could move forward with the home's other renovations and repairs, now that the foundation of the home was secured.
