Sloping floors?
In earthquake-prone regions like Alameda, Contra Costa, Solano, and Marin counties, keeping your home level and stable is essential for safety and structural integrity. At Ward Construction, we specialize in expert leveling services to correct uneven foundations and floors, helping your home remain secure and resilient during seismic activity and other ground movement issues.
Understanding the Importance of Leveling
Over time, various factors such as soil settlement, lumber shrinkage, seismic activity, and water intrusion can cause your home’s foundation to shift, leading to uneven floors and misaligned structures. These issues not only affect the aesthetics and comfort of your home but also pose significant safety risks. Our leveling services address these problems by restoring your home to its proper position, preventing further damage, and enhancing overall stability.
Comprehensive Leveling Solutions
Ward Construction offers a range of leveling solutions tailored to the specific needs of your property. Our experienced team conducts a thorough assessment to identify your foundation issues. We employ established methods such as pier installation, and underpinning to effectively lift and stabilize your home. There are times we may recommend cosmetic leveling, where the framing is lifted off of the foundation into a level position, and then resupported. This eliminates the expense of foundation underpinning or replacement. By using established and proven methods, we ensure precise and durable results.
