Job Stories

Downey resident Jose Luis G. contacted Saber about cracks in his garage floor and walls. He also stated that the garage door wasn't closing evenly. After inspecting the garage, Saber used their state-of-the-art PolyLevel process to raise the concrete slab in the garage. Then, with the level garage floor we caulked the existing cracks. Jose Luis was satisfied with the result and with our clean-up when we finished the job.

Downey resident Helen F. contacted Saber regarding cracks in the concrete areas outside of her home. The cracks were spreading and were causing Trip Hazards. Saber's Project Design Specialist performed a Free and Thorough Homeowner Inspection of Helen's home. Voids had formed under the concrete walkways. Areas of the concrete were sinking in to these Voids.  Our Crew drilled holes through the Concrete, into the Voids. We then injected Polyurethane into these Voids. Once the Voids were filled, our crew cleaned up any Polyurethane overflow, and made sure there were no more Trip Hazards. The attached picture shows our Crew using our PolyLevel Injection Process.

Chris from Huntington Beach, CA watched as his pool deck slowly separated due to poor compaction of the sub-base soils and erosion from water migration under the pool deck slab.   This trip and fall hazard caused by the settlement and misalignment of concrete panels of the deck concerned Chris as he loved entertaining guests out by the pool. Saber solved his problem by injecting 357 units of PolyLEVEL below the affected area to not only raise the sunken slab but to also fill any voids in close vicinity. This would also help in stopping water erosion and migration as well as stopping future settlement of other areas of the pool deck.  

A homeowner in Huntington Beach, Ca was seeing symptoms of settling in the home he had lived in since 1987. The home, built in 1976, was experiencing drywall and stucco cracks both inside and outside the home. The homeowner and his wife wanted to build an addition to the home, but needed to level or lift the home's foundation before they could move forward. Saber's project design specialist used zipline and other readings to determined how far their foundation had settled. Saber found that the couple's home had been experiencing general foundation distress and the present soil conditions promoted settlement that was likely to continue over time. The homeowner and his wife wanted to remedy the issue with their home as soon as possible, so Saber's production team started soon. They were to install 10 288 Low Profile Push Piers in designated areas around the home to level and attemp to lift the home. Each pier was encased in concrete by a third party, not jeopardizing any warranties on the piers themselves. At the beginning of the job, landscaping had to be removed from each of the pier locations. Soil was then excavated at each pier location at the bottom of the foundation footing. Along with the installed push piers, 42 units of PolyLevel void filling was installed beneath the footing. Polylevel void fill (210 units) was also inserted beneath the slab foundation to further reinforce the home and stabilize the soil.  Beneath the home's sliding glass door to their patio a pier couldn't be placed, so a steel beam was installed beneach the jamb, so that there woul dbe no damage to the footing. Once the project was complete, the foreman walked the entire jobsite with the homeowner, asking if he or his wife had any questions. They did not and were happy with the final result of closed drywall cracks and a level home. 

Huntington Beach resident Marlette contacted Saber in regards to Sagging Floors in her home. She stated that her home was built in 1958. Marlette also stated that she wanted to update her home for her grandchildren. Saber's Project Design Specialist performed a thorough inspection of Marlette's home. Saber's crew installed several Seismic Retrofitting components to the Foundation and the Home. These components strengthened the connection between Marlette's Home and it's Foundation. The attached Picture shows the Seismic Retrofitting Universal Foundation Plate attached to the A35 Framing Angle. We then added Smart Jacks, to support the sagging floor joists. Marlette was pleased with the results and the crew's clean up.

Huntington Beach resident Donna P. contacted Saber regarding Large cracks in the walls of her home. The attached picture shows one of the exterior cracks in Donna's home. The cracks were growing bigger and Donna was worried about her safety. Her home was built in 1973. Saber's Project Design Specialist performed a complete Free Homeowners inspection. Donna had three other quotes. She decided to have Saber fix her home properly and for the long term. Our Crew dug holes down to the base of the home's concrete slab Foundation. Then we attached three Push Pier Systems. Our crew Pressurized the Push Piers, thus lifting the sunken areas of the Foundation. The Foundation now has a constistant elevation throughout. The we filled in all holes and poured concrete. Last of all we cleaned up our work areas. Donna now feels safe. She has peace of mind.

The rest of the Concrete was ground down to a Consistent Elevation. All Trip Hazards were Eliminated.
