Job Stories

A homeowner in Rancho Mirage noticed cracks in their concrete pool deck and called out Saber Foundation Repair to conduct a free, no-obligation inspection.   The homeowner told the design specialist they lived in the home for a little more than a decade and the started noticing the cracks around four years ago. They wanted the issue fixed so the problem didn't get worse or more expensive to fix overtime.   The design specialist recommended sealing their concrete joints - or intentional cuts in the concrete - along with the cracks that appeared as the slabs started sinking. The homeowner agreed this would be the best way to fix their issue.   The Saber crews used NexusPro to seal the cracks. NexusPro is a concrete sealant from Supportworks, and is exclusively available to Saber in the southern California area.

A Port Hueneme association supervisor contacted Saber regarding cracked and crumbling sidewalks in the community. Saber's Project Design Specialist performed a thorough inspection of all of the walkways. Several of the concrete slabs were in such bad shape, that they had to be replaced. See the attached picture. Saber Excavated these slabs, and removed all of the concrete. We then filled the voids, that had formed, with Polyurethane. Last of all, new slabs were poured.

Newberry Springs resident Desiree contacted Saber regarding cracked walkways and tree roots lifting her kitchen floor. Saber Project Design Specialist performed a Free Homeowner inspection. We recommended that the tree roots be excavated and removed. We would then excavate and remove the damaged concrete foundation. We would repour the concrete and bring the floor to a consistent elevation with the rest of desiree's home. We also recommended attaching Helical Piers to the foundation. This would lift any areas that had sunk, thus strengthening the foundation. Desiree received a copy of out two hour inspection report and a 30 day quote.

Tehachapi resident Randy D. contacted Saber regarding cracks in his concrete driveway, which were becoming Trip Hazards. Saber's Project Design Specialist performed a thorough and Free Homeowner inspection of Randy's home. Voids had formed under the driveway. They were increasing in size. This was causing the cracking to get worse. Saber recommended our State-of-the-Art PolyLevel Injection Process. Injecting Polyurethane into these voids would lift the sinking concrete, and eliminate the Trip Hazards. Randy received a copy of Saber's Home inspection Report, which included our quote.

A tenant-occupied cottage on a quiet lane in Santa Ysabel, CA had begun to tell a worrying story. The concrete side porch, once level with the front door, was drifting downward and cracking apart. Heavy winter runoff had scoured the soil, leaving a nine-inch gap between slab and sill; daylight shone through rotted framing, and household pests found their way inside. Doors scraped, ceilings cracked, and every new creak reminded the property owner that safety, rental income, and resale value were all at risk.   The owner first tried patching the slab and filling joints with store-bought compounds, but each quick fix failed as erosion undercut the porch again. Recognizing that foundation and concrete issues demand specialized knowledge, the owner searched for a firm that offered lasting answers rather than temporary cosmetics—an approach essential to halt progressive structural damage.   Saber Foundation Repair emerged from that search with a reputation built on transparent evaluations and modern technology. During a complimentary inspection, Saber’s team traced the porch settlement to voids beneath the slab and to moisture-driven soil movement at the crawlspace edge. They recommended the PolyLevel® System—an environmentally safe, waterproof, high-density polyurethane foam injection that lifts and stabilizes concrete without the mess of traditional mud jacking.   Installation unfolded in four precise steps. Technicians bored unobtrusive ⅝-inch ports through the sunken slab, affixed injector fittings, and delivered expanding PolyLevel® foam beneath the concrete. As the lightweight foam spread, it filled hidden cavities and gently raised the porch back to its original height. Within minutes the material cured, the injection ports were removed, and the holes were neatly patched with fresh cement. Because PolyLevel® is waterproof, it now shields the slab from future washout, preserving the repair for the long term.   The transformation was immediate and measurable: the porch returned to grade, the crawlspace opening closed, and the home’s doors and windows operated smoothly again. Tenants reported a renewed sense of security, and the owner gained confidence that the property’s value—and curb appeal—were protected for years to come.   Acting quickly is critical; delaying repairs invites deeper settlement, escalating costs, and unnecessary stress. Saber Foundation Repair demonstrates daily that informed assessments, advanced materials, and a customer-first mindset convert anxiety into assurance and safeguard the largest investment most families ever make.   If cracks are widening, concrete is sinking, or floors feel uneven, schedule a free inspection with Saber Foundation Repair today and put proven expertise to work before minor warning signs become major structural problems.

A home in Indian Wells, Ca. was going through renovations and needed new flooring. When the carpet and wood were removed, numerous cracks were found in the slab foundation throughout the home. Saber was called to conduct an inspection and to find the perfect solution for the cracking issue. It was found that a 2 part structural gravity fed epoxy was the best way to effectively seal the cracks in the slabs to ensure that the cement slabs were fixed. Saber's production crew proceeded to clean each crack and prep it for the epoxy application. After the epoxy was applied and set, the edges were ground down so that the epoxy was flush with the concrete, effectively filling the cracks. The homeowners were very pleased with the results and, after the project, were able to replace the flooring of their home and enjoy their new living space.

Poway resident Chris contacted Saber about sagging kitchen floors in his home built in 1985. He wanted to fix this before selling his home. Our Project Design Specialist performed a thorough and Free Homeowner inspection. The concrete slab, that was supporting the home, had a void under it, caused by settling soil. Our Crew drilled through the concrete slab and filled this void using our State- of- the- Art PolyLEVEL Injection Process. The attached picture shows the equipment we use in the PolyLevel process.We then excavated holes and installed Push Piers to the areas of the Foundation, that had weakened because of the void. Chris was happy with the result and the clean up.
