Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Settlement Repair Los Angeles

This Los Angeles property showed a variety of distress signs. A crack snaked across the brick patio, an interior wall had visible cracking, hardwood floor boards were splitting apart, and the crawlspace walls were developing cracks. These issues pointed to differential settlement caused by shrinking soils beneath the foundation. Saber’s crews documented the symptoms and then prepared the site for repair. They excavated along the affected wall, exposing the foundation and marking pier locations. Photos show the foundation before installation and the excavated pit ready for work. Steel push‑pier brackets were bolted to the footing; then pier sections were driven deep into stable strata and hydraulic equipment was used to lift the sunken section of the house. After the lift, the excavation was backfilled, and a new concrete patch was added over the work area. Inside the home, cracks closed and floors realigned, providing the owner with a durable solution that transfers the building’s weight onto bedrock instead of unstable surface soils.
