Push Pier Foundation Repair Systems Service in San Jose, CA

The varieties of homes in San Jose match the diversity of the residents: the bungalows of Willow Glen of the craftsman, the hillside mansions of the Almaden Valley. The intricate soil composition of the city is a secret challenge under all that charm though. Unstable clay and damp ground may settle in a lumpy manner over time causing cracks, uneven floors and structural tension of foundations.

Our foundation repair and stabilization services are environment specific to San Jose. With the engineered push pier systems, we stabilize settling foundations, put them back on track and stop their further settlement. Our professional staff will provide long-term structural soundness, regardless of whether your house is in Evergreen, Berkeley, or the Downtown area itself so that your house will not lose its integrity since it was built.

The Best Time of Year to Schedule Foundation Repair

Underlying issues would deteriorate unobtrusively, yet when it comes to repair, timing will lead to a more efficient and cost-effective repair. On San Jose soils, seasonal moisture predominates and therefore at some specific periods, the work of stabilizing the soils is more favorable.

  • Dry months (spring-early fall): Soil is not volatile, and your foundation is reachable by crews.
  • Before the rainy season: Before expansion and movement can occur, reinforcement is done.
  • Under light temperatures: The weather is constant and will guarantee the conditions of proper curing and installation.
  • When cracks begin to appear: The cracks whether new or enlarging indicate the need to take action urgently, regardless of the time of year.

Repairing when the soil is stable means that the installations will be better and that your foundation will be in place to endure throughout the weather conditions in future.

How Long Does Push Pier Installation Take?

The duration of disruption of day to day activities of homeowners is one of the most common issues that is raised by them regarding the foundation repair. Luckily, push pier systems are effective as well as accurate.
Preliminary assessment
This is a thorough examination and plan accomplished during one visit.
Installation of the piers
The installation usually requires 2-3 days, depending on the size of your house.
Structural lift
Settlements are gradually lifted with the aid of hydraulic equipment when piers have been installed.
Restoration
Immediately after excavation, areas excavated are filled and landscaped.
The San Jose clients tend to be surprised at the speed at which the work is done, and how smoothly their homes get back to normal when the foundation is stabilized.

Understanding San Jose’s Soil and Settlement Patterns

San Jose homeowners have their issues with the foundation often beginning several feet underground. Wide clay soils swell during wet season pushing the structure upwards and swell back dislodging portions of the foundation during dry seasons. In the course of time, such a repetitive process leads to stress fractures and uneven settling.

At the start of every project, we have our technicians analyzing the soil and the structure in great detail. This is done by locating weak areas and depth to the bedrock that helps us to develop a personalized repair strategy with the use of push piers which extend deep and sound soil layer. This way your foundation will not keep moving about even when the ground beneath it is.

What to Expect During a Foundation Repair Project

Our process is based on transparency and care. Our team maintains your communication throughout the process starting when we check your foundation and until we do the last check.

We start with the identification of problem areas with the help of preciseness measurement equipment and provide a clear report concerning the reason of the movement and the best way of its repair. Our crew has minimal disturbance during the installation and cleans up thoroughly after the installation is done. A post-installation check is done on all projects to ensure that your foundation is not loose, level or unsound.
