Photo Album: Cracking and foundation repair in Bonita
Saber was contracted to repair a home in Bonita, California. The home had suffered from severe settlement issues, causing cracks to form in the slab of the homes foundation. The homeowners knew that they needed to get the home repaired before more settlement occurred and cause more issues. Saber was able to repair the foundation using the Push Pier system, along with PolyLEVEL™ to fill the void once the lift was complete and then they fixed and repaired the large cracks that had already appeared and using epoxy to close and stitch the cracks.
