We Service Larkspur!

Larkspur’s charming neighborhoods and picturesque location near the Bay bring unique foundation challenges for homeowners. Many homes are built on soft bay fill or alluvial soils, which are prone to settling over time. This soil movement can lead to foundation cracks, sloping floors, and structural instability, especially in older homes that lack modern construction techniques. Homes on sloped lots also face additional risks of soil erosion and hillside movement.

Seismic activity is a significant concern in Larkspur due to its proximity to the San Andreas and Rodgers Creek Faults. Earthquakes in the region can cause severe ground shaking, soil liquefaction, and lateral spreading, putting homes at risk of structural damage. Seismic retrofitting—such as foundation bolting, cripple wall bracing, and shear wall installation—is essential to reinforce homes and reduce the risk of damage during seismic events.

Drainage problems are also common in Larkspur, particularly in low-lying areas or homes with poor grading. Seasonal rains can lead to water pooling around foundations, increasing hydrostatic pressure and causing cracks or leaks. Installing effective drainage solutions, such as French drains, sump pumps, and retaining walls, helps manage water flow and protects Larkspur homes from moisture-related foundation issues.
