Along with such variety of scenery comes whatever lots of foundation difficulties, such as clay soil drifting landwards to inland, or lack of moisture by the Bay. Gradually these natural forces can erode foundations, which present themselves in the form of cracked walls, tilted floors or doors that no longer fit together. What initially starts as a minor inconvenience, may develop into a structural issue.

You need strength, safety and peace of mind, whether it is along the street of Point Richmond, Hilltop or Marina Bay and our team delivers all this, starting at the ground level.

The Difference Between Structural and Cosmetic Cracks

Not all of the cracks in a house mean something wrong with the foundation of the house but the ability to identify the difference can save time, stress and money of the homeowners.

  • Structural cracks: The motion in the foundation itself does cause structural cracks. They can be broader on one end, can possibly go cut in various materials (such as drywall and brick), and can become worse with time passage. These cracks normally indicate active settlement which needs to be professionally checked at once.
  • Cosmetic cracks: Cosmetic cracks, however, are generally superficial problems due to everyday wear, or alteration of humidity, or slight contraction of substances. They do not have an impact on structural integrity but may be repaired aesthetically.

The specialists operating in Richmond can assist to differentiate between the two, and when needed, develop a plan of stabilizing that will take care of the cause, rather than only the symptoms.

Push piers do not simply prevent the settlement of a foundation, they can in fact repair damage that is visible through the years of movement. Cracks can be closed or reduced by lifting and stabilizing your foundation. Above all, they stop the development of new cracks.

  • Stabilization: Piers First: Have your house fixed to the ground, preventing any further movement.

  • Warranty: There are long-term performance warranties on all installations.

Push piers can be used in the changing soils of Richmond and can be used as a long term solution preventing the occurrence of cracks again in the soil and this offers structural stability to the soil and also peace of mind.

The Soil Movement Problems near Richmond Homes

The soil conditions in the water front and the hill side neighborhoods differ greatly in Richmond. The coastal regions have greater moisture content, which undermines supporting soils and properties in the inland areas are subject to seasonal weather variability changes of clay and shrinkage. The two conditions result in uneven settlement and structural stress.

In order to recommend any repair, we conduct intricate soil analysis and laser-level watch to assess the reason behind the movement of the foundation. With the use of push piers, anchored deep into solid load carrying strata, the unstable surface layers are completely avoided giving a permanent stabilization that keeps your home safe against the soil movements in the upcoming times.
