We Service Mill Valley!
Mill Valley’s lush landscape and steep hillsides are beautiful but pose serious structural risks. Homes here are often built into sloped terrain where soil erosion and shifting are common—especially after heavy rains. This constant soil movement can cause foundations to settle or shift, leading to visible cracks, uneven flooring, and compromised structural stability.
The city’s location near the San Andreas Fault means seismic safety is a top priority. Many Mill Valley homes—particularly older ones—may lack the structural reinforcement needed to withstand significant ground shaking. Seismic retrofitting, including bolting and cripple wall bracing, is an effective way to help protect against earthquake-related damage and preserve the home’s integrity.
Mill Valley also sees its share of drainage issues due to runoff from surrounding hills and the area’s wet winters. Without proper drainage systems in place, water can pool around the foundation, leading to hydrostatic pressure and potential water intrusion. French drains, swales, and sump pumps can help redirect water and protect homes from moisture-related structural problems.
