- Danville
Danville is a town that has its own character due to its mix of olde-time appeal, hilly neighborhoods, and tailor-made homes. Along the tree-lined streets around the old Village Theatre to the interesting cul-de-sacs all over Greenbrook and the high vistas in Blackhawk, every house stands upon ground which has been molded and shaped by years of natural soil movement. The topography of the area surrounding Diablo Road, the paths of the Sycamore Valley Park and the foothills towards Mount Diablo all play a role on the way foundations move and settle as time goes on.
Houses located close to Camino Tassajara, along the Crow Canyon, or along level sloping lots, in West Danville tend to undergo slight expansions and contractions of the soil all through the year. Such seasonal variations, particularly in clay-anchored soil depressions, may over time impact the soundness of foundations and internal flooring. As we know the topography of Danville, drainage systems, and developed tree systems, we develop foundation fortification plans that will not interfere with the landscape of your home.
Our Step-by-Step Underpinning Process
Our procedure is clear and well tested to determine the source of foundation problems and implement the most appropriate reinforcement procedure. We start with measurement of soil, moisture and height to assess the effects of movement on the structure. The houses in Danville are diverse in design or it could be either a one-story home in Greenbrook or a home located on the hillsides of Diablo country club and thus we customize our work in accordance to the demands of each house.
When the evaluation is finished, we develop a comprehensive program, which will include what kind of underpinning will have to be made, where reinforcement is necessary and how. The process is an explanation of our findings, safety, and precision in the work. We always want to achieve a long-term stability, a minimal disruption, as well as full trust of the homeowner.
Why DIY Underpinning Is Never a Good Idea
Underpinning needs special equipment, structural analysis, and accurate knowledge of the behavior of the soil. Without professional skills, one may take a risk in doing it, and may make expensive errors.
Majority of homeowners are unable to correctly diagnose the actual reason causing the movement of foundation which might lead to incorrect or infeasible repairs.
Floors, walls, or settlement, which is not supported or regulated in lifting, may be cracked, damaged or sometimes unrepaired.
DIY methods fail to consider the local building codes, safety standards and long-term load conditions endangering the property and its occupants.
Personalized Underpinning Plans for Residential Properties
Each foundation experience home is a stressor in its own way with regard to the soil type, slope, drainage, and age. The following are indications that it might be time to have a custom underpinning plan:
- Floors starting to slope or to sink.
- Formation of cracks around the windows, ceilings, or corners of doors.
- Doors or windows jutting or out of position.
- Outside brick/stucco separation.
- Footing settlement or observable cracks at the foundation.
The custom plans enable us to be able to reinforce in the areas that are actually required to be reinforced and achieve permanent structural support, which is suited to the design and environment of your home.
