Foundation Repairs: What to Expect from Start to Finish

Hearing the words “foundation repair” can be intimidating—but it doesn’t have to be. At Alameda Engineering, we guide homeowners through every step with clarity and confidence. Here’s what you can expect from the moment you contact us to project completion.

1. Initial Evaluation
We start with a full site assessment, looking for cracks, sinking, drainage issues, and soil conditions. Based on your property’s needs, we provide a detailed plan and estimate.

2. Excavation & Preparation
Our crew carefully digs around the affected area, exposing the foundation.

3. Structural Reinforcement or Replacement
Depending on the damage, we reinforce the existing foundation or replace it entirely. This may include new footings, rebar, and moisture barriers.

4. Drainage Integration
Because water is often the root of the problem, we encourage proper drainage to be incorporated into the repair for long-term protection.

5. Final Cleanup & Walkthrough
We believe a clean job site is part of the job. After work is complete, we walk you through the repairs and answer any remaining questions.

Conclusion:
Foundation work doesn’t need to feel overwhelming. With clear communication, expert execution, and respect for your home, we make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.📞 510.537.6550 | 925.558.3847 | 🌐 alameda-engineering.com
