We Service Kentfield!

Kentfield’s upscale neighborhoods and hilly terrain create distinct challenges for home foundations. Many properties are built on expansive clay soils that expand and contract with moisture changes, leading to foundation settling, cracks, and structural instability. Homes on sloped lots face additional risks from soil erosion and hillside movement, which can further compromise foundation integrity.

Seismic activity is a major concern for Kentfield homeowners due to the area’s proximity to the San Andreas Fault. Earthquakes can cause significant ground shaking and soil movement, particularly in areas with soft or unstable soils. Seismic retrofitting—such as foundation bolting, cripple wall bracing, and shear wall installation—is essential to strengthen homes and protect them from potential seismic damage.

Drainage issues are also prevalent in Kentfield, especially during heavy rains when water runoff can lead to soil erosion and hydrostatic pressure against foundation walls. Without proper drainage systems, homes are at risk of leaks, cracks, and long-term water damage. Installing solutions like French drains, sump pumps, and retaining walls helps manage water flow and protect the structural integrity of Kentfield homes.
