Kearny Mesa foundation work is almost entirely commercial, Convoy District restaurant slab repair from kitchen-floor moisture damage, warehouse perimeter settlement on the Aero Drive industrial stock, and auto-row service-bay slab repair from decades of vehicle and equipment loading.. We account for local conditions in every job.

Will slab jacking break my flooring?

Modern polyurethane slab jacking is dimensionally precise to about 1/8 inch when the technician is good. Tile and hardwood usually survive lifts up to 1 inch. Larger lifts or older tile (1970s and earlier) often break and need to come up first. The pros we send tell you up front when the pros we send expect cosmetic damage.

How do I know if it is the slab or the soil?

The pros we send do a level survey, then look at the pattern. Settlement at one isolated interior point with the perimeter still level is usually a void under the slab (water washing out fines, a buried trash pit, an old plumbing trench). Settlement at the perimeter is usually soil bearing or expansive clay and needs underpinning, not just jacking.
