The areas around Hayward Highlands and Fairview that Hayward has to offer are a striking blend of architectural styles constructed on just as different soils. The houses around Tennyson Park, along Mission Boulevard or with a view of Don Castro Reservoir, are often built on soil that is composed of clay that also swells during the rainy months and shrinks during the warm dry months. Natural changes provide a continuous pressure of pier and beam foundations.
The accumulation of moisture in the crawl space, the settlement of piers, or the decay of the wood are usually evident in many crawl spaces of Hayward long before the owners realize some damage has occurred. Minor problems such as squeaky floors, uneven floors or signs of wood decay can provide an indication of underlying structural problems. Our crew realizes how the conditions of climate, terrain, and soil affect each home in a different way, and this is the reason why we are devoted to the thorough inspection, straight speaking advice, and long-term repairs that will be offered based on the problematic nature of the foundation in the area.

It is necessary to know that the movement of pier and beam in Hayward varies depending on the amount of moisture before considering the seasonal considerations.
Although the repairs can be done throughout the year, picking the right time to do it will enhance the efficiency, accuracy and longevity of the repairs.
Three custom subheadings have been listed below outlining our repair strategy- none of which utilize your given headings.
We carry out a thorough assessment of your pier and beam structure, beam conditions, pier alignment, subfloor condition, soil moisture level as well as drain patterns. This assists us to recognize not only what is wrong, also the reason why it is occurring.
We instruct homeowners on the maintenance after repairs, drainage enhancement, and crawl-space maintenance to facilitate the prevention of the recurring movement. We aim at long-term structural wellness, and not short-term solutions.
Our team can create crawl spaces that are both structurally reinforced and well-dried to enable the restoration of integrity even to the most deteriorated crawl spaces.

Squeaky floors may be a good sign that there is a trouble under your house. When piers sink or beams start to lose their strength due to exposure to moisture, the subfloor may bow or move, resulting in popping or groaning noises. The crawl-space is commonly the first indication that the crawl-space structure is becoming unstable.
Our team determines the causes of creaking floors to be due to normal aging or something more profound. In cases where the root cause is foundation movement, early and definite intervention avoids occurrence of the issue to walls, doors and framing structures.
There may be silent foundation leaks that can slowly result in some significant structural damage. To find them, one should examine the crawl space, soil around it and inside clues.
We examine wet ground, standing water, discolored wood, moulds, and damaged vapor seals. Musty smells, stains on walls or standing dampness may also be indicative of concealed leakage indoors. By detecting leaks early we can rectify drainage, fix plumbing problems or set up moisture shields before it is too late.
We were very happy with the results of our inspection with Ryan! He explained the settling in homes and what things we should look for, and was very professional, friendly, and efficient. Thanks!
Had a great experience working with Kyndell from Golden Bay Foundation Builders. I recently purchased the home and was looking for help with earthquake retrofitting options. He inspected my foundation carefully and determined that past bolting was likely adequate. He had suggestions about monitoring the foundation. He was very thoughtful and detailed in his approach, and worked to determine what was best for the home. In this case, that meant no need for additional work now. But if I need any additional assistance in the future, will be calling him again.
