We Service Castro Valley!

Castro Valley’s mix of flatlands and rolling hills creates specific challenges for home foundations. Homes built on expansive clay soils often experience foundation settling as the soil expands and contracts with moisture changes, leading to cracks, uneven floors, and misaligned doors and windows. In hillside areas, soil erosion and movement can further compromise foundation stability, requiring professional repair and leveling services.

The seismic risk in Castro Valley is significant due to the nearby Hayward Fault. Many homes, especially older ones, may lack modern seismic reinforcements, making them vulnerable to damage during an earthquake. Seismic retrofitting, including foundation bolting, cripple wall bracing, and shear wall installation, is essential to protect homes and improve their resilience against seismic events.

Drainage problems are also common in Castro Valley, particularly in hillside neighborhoods where rainwater runoff can lead to soil erosion and foundation instability. Without proper drainage systems, water can pool around foundations, leading to hydrostatic pressure, cracks, and leaks. Installing solutions like French drains, sump pumps, and retaining walls helps manage water flow and protect the structural integrity of Castro Valley homes.
