A homeowner in Capistrano Beach, Ca. had been experiencing numerous problems with their home, which rested on a raised foundation. The floors were sagging in certain areas, moisture was accumulating in their crawl space, and odors were starting to form in that area, too. Saber was called to perform the initial inspection of the home and crawl space. It was found that SmartJacks would solve the sagging floor issue and the Sedona dehumidifier along with a drainage system would help with the moisture issues beneath the home. In order to gain access to install SmartJacks and drainage system beneath the home, dirt, and rocks needed to be removed and relocated from the crawl space. The home was on a slight incline, making the space uneven. Once the crawl space area was free from extra dirt and rocks, trenches were dug for the SmartDrain system. The drainage would divert water from the foundation soils away from the home.  Gravel was applied to help filter the groundwater to keep the pipes from clogging. the Sedona dehumidifier was also installed to capture and filter extra moisture in the soils and standing water that may accumulate over time.  After the drainage was covered and dehumidifier installed, a drainage mat was then laid on the dirt floor of the crawl space to further help keep moisture from rising to the surface of the soil and direct it to the drainage system. The crawl space was then encapsulated with CleanSpace to keep the area dry and free from odors and allergens. The SmartJacks and supplemental beams were installed to level and support the sagging floors. At the close of the project, the homeowner was happy that his flooring was supported and reinforced against any further risk of sagging. Future moisture is being avoided by having a clean and dry area underneath his home. Mold and odors also won't have a chance to form after the installation.  

Homeowners in Yucaipa,  had noticed separation and cracks that had formed in the slab of their pool deck.  These are all signs of soil settlement.  This type of settlement is due to the expansive soils beneath the homes foundation.  The homeowners knew they needed to find a fix for this issue before it became much more serious, however; they knew that they wanted to find a fix that would be best for them and not too disruptive to their lives.  The homeowners did some research and found Saber, they set an appointment for a Saber design specialist to come to the property for a free property evaluation.  The design specialist proposed that the pool slabs  be stabilized and lifted to maximum practical recovery using PolyLEVEL™.  The Crew arrived and went to work using the proposed design to map out the locations in which the PolyLEVEL™ would be injected for the best results.  PolyLEVEL™ was injected beneath the slabs to fill any voids and to lift and stabilize the the pool deck.  Once the PolyLEVEL™ set up the slabs are now stabilized and lifted to maximum practical recovery,  The homeowners no longer see the signs of settlement that once plaqued their pool deck and caused tripping hazards.  The cracks that had formed are now closed and the uneven concrete was once again level.
