Professional Foundation Repair Company in Los Angeles, CA

In Sunland, CA, a family watched the concrete surrounding their backyard pool settle year after year. Fine hairline fractures widened into a jagged crack that split the deck, drainage covers tilted, and a once-smooth walkway developed hazardous trip points. Besides spoiling summer fun, the sinking slab threatened the pool’s plumbing and the home’s resale value. Uneven slabs also made daily maintenance risky; carrying chemicals and gear across unstable concrete amplified safety worries.

The Search for a Solution

Hoping for a quick fix, the homeowners first tried patching joints and caulking cracks, but seasonal soil movement reopened every repair. Traditional mud jacking appeared messy and heavy—exactly the wrong approach for a poolside surface that demanded precision and minimal downtime. Realizing the problem exceeded DIY territory, they looked for a specialist who could provide a lasting answer rather than another stopgap.

Why Saber Foundation Repair?

Online reviews consistently praised Saber Foundation Repair for transparent assessments and modern technology. A complimentary inspection confirmed that expansive soils beneath the deck had washed out, creating voids that allowed the concrete to settle unevenly. Saber’s inspector explained how the lightweight, high-density PolyLevel® polyurethane foam could lift the slab, lock it in place, and seal voids—all with holes no larger than a dime. That combination of science, experience, and a clean installation schedule convinced the homeowners they had found the right partner.

The Repair Process

On the agreed date, Saber’s crew arrived before 9 a.m. and walked the project with the owners. Following the proven four-step PolyLevel® process, technicians first bored ⅝-inch injection points at strategic locations along the yellow chalk line mapping the lowest spots. Discreet ports inserted into each opening guided the expanding foam precisely beneath the slab. As the two-part polymer reacted, it gently lifted the concrete back to its original elevation, closing cracks and realigning drainage covers. Within minutes, the material reached full strength, resisting water intrusion and future erosion. Finally, the crew removed the ports, patched each opening with color-matched cement, and power-washed the deck. By early afternoon, the poolside was ready for foot traffic.

Transformation – The After

The change was immediate and dramatic. The prominent crack that once sliced across the deck closed tight; the walkway along the filter equipment lay flush and smooth; the sunken drain near the garden island sat level, restoring proper runoff. With the eyesore eliminated, the yard regained its inviting appeal, and the homeowners regained peace of mind. Most importantly, the lightweight foam preserved the soil rather than weighing it down, ensuring a long-term solution rather than a temporary reprieve.

Emotional Engine – The Power of Trust

Foundation and concrete issues seldom improve on their own—erosion accelerates, and repairs grow costlier. Saber Foundation Repair builds confidence by sharing data-backed evaluations, written warranties, and courteous communication from scheduling to cleanup. That transparency reassures families that their biggest investment is protected by proven expertise rather than guesswork.

New Era – A Win for Everyone

Restoring the pool deck revived not only the property’s safety but also its value. Prospective buyers now see a level, attractive outdoor space instead of potential liability. Across Sunland and greater Los Angeles, Saber continues to apply the same PolyLevel® technology—environmentally safe, waterproof, and far less invasive than old-fashioned concrete jacking—to sidewalks, driveways, patios, and interior slab floors.

Saber received a call from a homeowner experiencing water drainage problems. The water in his backyard wouldn't drain properly due to an underground spring. Puddles kept building in the yard near his neighbor's yard.

Upon arrival with his team, foreman, Angel Morales, saw that puddles were building up near a wall in the yard. Lots of mud and water had built up. In order to fix the problem, french drains were installed against the neighbor's wall, where most of the standing water was. The drain was connected to a preexisting drain in order to redirect the water into the street.

Saber helped this property by ridding it of puddling water by directing through the main drain into the street.

Daniel A, homeowner in Los Angeles called Saber to work hand in hand with the structural engineer to repair and support the pier and beam structure of his raised foundation "Crawl Space" home.

Engineer drawings called out for (15) Smart Jack girder supports as well as the removal and replacement of a failing grider.  The Smart Jack system was chosen for its engineered fill base and capacity of the entire install unit.  

The Smart Jack system is a great  support solution to mitigate against active clay soils under your home or to replace old and rotten timber supports.

The home was also further supported by installing 9 push piers around the property to raise the foundation back to level.  The home was sill plate bolted and nine existing posts were restated to add support. 

Homeowners in Los Angeles, were looking for ways to make their home more energy efficient and to keep moisture out of their homes crawlspace.  After spending many hours researching the different ways to resolve their issues, they found that Saber and the CleanSpace encapsulation installed be Saber was the best option for them.  CleanSpace encapsulation is a 20 mil thick plastic liner, similar to a pool liner that can be fitted in your crawlspace to completely seal off your home from the earth.  The material is incredibly durable, will last as long as the home, and will stay in place.  Not only does CleanSpace make the homes crawlspace moisture free, and makes the home more energy efficient it also adds space for storage.  The Saber CleanSpace installation crew was scheduled to complete the project, they arrived at the site and went right to work.  The crew installed 418sqft of CleanSpace to the homes crawlspace area.  The process to install the CleanSpace began with the a dimpled polyethylene membrane under the CleanSpace liner which allows for water to flow to a sump in the crawlspace, once this is installed, the lining is then attached to the walls with fasteners that are permanently driven into the walls.  The Saber crew worked diligently to complete the crawlspace.  The homeowners can now not only enjoy the energy efficiency of the CleanSpace, but also the added benefits: CleanSpace has an antimicrobial additive manufactured into the material, which prevents mold growth on the liner.  This additive is odorless and safe.  

Customer Olivia M, of Somis, California, and her husband purchased their 1980’s home a year prior, fully knowing it had foundation settlement issues. Researching the available options, Olivia determined that Saber had the best online reviews and would be the best company to evaluate the property. Subject site is a single story home supported by a slab on grade foundation. Noticeable cracking in the foundation and flooring tile was evident as well as the floor was determined to be out of level.  Upon inspection, Saber’s Project Specialist,  Joe J. proposed to install 12 hydraulically driven steel Push Piers at 6’ intervals along the affected area to stabilize and lift the home back to it's original elevation.

Saber’s Foreman Trevar A and his crew completed the Push Pier installation in three days and performed lifting and leveling on the fourth day, followed by Polyurethane injection.  Polyurethane was utilized to fill voids under the slab that were created during the lifting phase, further permanently supporting the foundation.

Another happy customer! Olivia was very pleased with the work completed. It is safe to say, she now has piece of mind knowing that the foundation of her home is stable.

In Los Angeles, California, Saber Foundations was contracted to complete a job on a structure that had suffered from severe foundation settlement.  During the initial inspection it was also recommend that the property be retro-fitted with vertical and horizontal “I” beams.  The settlement that was occurring on this structure was most likely due to the shifting in the supporting soils beneath the foundation.  Using Foundation Supportworks, Inc, Push Piers made of steel and including a set of helical blades in the lower section of the pier, these are known as Helical Piers.  Soil is removed from around the foundation footing for proper pier placement.  Helical pier systems create a solid supporting base that transfers the weight of a structure downwards to strong supporting soils.  These piers are mechanically advanced into the soil using small construction equipment or hand equipment.  As they are installed to appropriate depths and capacities, they prevent any future settlement from occurring.  Once the proper depths are achieved, heavy duty steel foundation brackets are positioned below and against the foundation footing.  The weight of the structure is then transferred through the helical piers to deep, competent soils.  Lifting the structure back towards its original position is then attempted.  Then, the soil around the foundation is carefully replaced.  

During this installation, because of the size of the building and the length of the walls, 100 helical piers were installed to the exterior and interior of of the property.  These piers worked together to transfer the weight of the structure to the strong soils or bedrock below.  After installation, the owner will notice that any signs of the soils shifting will no longer be an issue.  This property was also retro-fitted with vertical and horizontal steel “I” beams.  This process involves the installation of engineered metal connectors and other reinforcement materials at key stress points throughout the properties structure.  The goal of the retrofitting process is to counteract three main earthquake-induced forces that can cause major damage to a building.  Saber’s experienced crew utilized the vertical and horizontal “I” beams to keep the properties structure together in spite of any seismic force that could easily tear an un-reinforced property apart.  The owner is not content with the fact that the property is once again stable and has been reinforced in the event of another earthquake, which in California is inevitable. 

Customer Mari D, of Long Beach, California, had been considering reinforcing her property, and with the string of recent earthquakes in and around the Los Angeles area, she found that now was a better time then any.  So, Mari did her research and found that Saber was the best company to come evaluate her property.  Upon the inspection, the Sales representative from Saber proposed to install  Simpson UFP 10 brackets at every corner of the foundation and every 6' from the center, as well as strapping each 4x4 post to each existing wood grinder beam, using Simpson T-straps and Simpson framing clips.  There was also a crack in the slab that was a concern to Mari, therefore; it was suggested that the crack be routed, cleaned and repaired using a two component epoxy injection method.

Mari found that this was the best option for her, so she scheduled to have a crew from Saber repair the crack in her slab and retro fit her property.  The crew was able to complete the project in the first day.  They began by going into the crawlspace where the work would be preformed, and installed and secured the T-straps, they then installed and secured the sill plates and repaired the crack with epoxy.  

Mari was very pleased with the work completed. It is safe to say, she now has piece of mind knowing that in the occurrence of the next earthquake in her area, her home has been safely secured.
