House/Floor Leveling in Los Angeles

Los Angeles County is blessed with many fine homes built in the late nineteenth century and the first half the twentieth century. But due to our location in an active seismic zone and many homes built on expansive soil foundation settlement is inevitable.

Over time, a once level structure can become sloped. Common signs of foundation settlement include – uneven floors, cracked walls and ceilings, doors and windows not opening or closing properly.

The solution is professional house leveling. Alpha Structural, Inc. typically employs a jack/lift to raise a home to a more desirable level. At the same time it is paramount to discover and handle the cause for the house settlement so that the problem does not continue. This must be completely above its foundation. We then repair and upgrade the foundation so that future problems do not occur.

With a slab that has sunken in some way, we can stop further settlement and then apply a self-leveling concrete to “float” the floors. This will improve a flatness to the existing floors.
