Comprehensive Structural Home Repair Services
We provide engineered solutions for every part of your home’s framework, including foundations, beams, columns, joists, and trusses, with the scope of our structural repair projects ranging from minor fixes to comprehensive renovations. Our team can target repairs to any portion of a structure, ensuring that specific issues like leaks or water damage are addressed efficiently.
Every structural repair project requires a thorough inspection and strict compliance with local building codes to ensure safety, regulatory adherence, and successful permitting.
Foundation & Basement Stabilization
Wall Bracing & Crack Repair
We use advanced stabilization methods, including repairing masonry cracks and strengthening bowed walls. This may include burying steel plates (deadmen) in the yard connected by threaded rods to pull walls back into place. For masonry repairs, tuckpointing is performed by removing old, weakened mortar and replacing it with fresh mortar to restore structural integrity.
Support Posts & Reinforcement
We replace rusted or failing basement jacks with heavy-duty structural supports. Steel plates or C-channels can be bolted to wood beams for high-tension reinforcement.
Advanced Underpinning
We strengthen foundations by extending them to deeper soil or using mini-piling, steel push piers, or helical piers driven to bedrock.
Slab Lifting & Soil Fixes
We address issues caused by expansive clay soils—which account for over 80% of structural defects—using specialized grout or polyurethane foam injection to lift sunken concrete slabs.
Specialized Sealants
We install advanced sealants, membranes, caulking, and waterproofing materials to prevent leaks and water damage, ensuring long-term protection for your structure.
Interior & Exterior Integrity
Joist & Beam Repair
We replace cracked or rotted beams and “sister” floor joists to eliminate sagging, addressing weak points caused by substandard materials, inadequate framing, or failure to follow engineering plans.
Roof & Floor Leveling
We straighten sagging rooflines and re-level warped floors, addressing uneven or sagging floors—a common sign of structural trouble that can indicate deeper foundational issues.
Deck & Porch Support
We add or replace concrete footings to prevent deck swaying and reinforce supports for heavy porch overhangs.
Specialized Sealants
Our repairs include epoxy injections, carbon fiber reinforcing, and the installation of expansion joints, flashings, and membranes to prevent water intrusion.
