helical piers installation in Long Beach

Uneven floors, sinking corners, and bouncing floors all point to failing pier and post support systems. Our pier and post support system services are designed to lift and stabilize homes throughout Long Beach, whether you have a crawl space, basement, or slab-on-grade. We install both helical piers and pressed concrete piers to reach load-bearing soil deep below unstable ground.

This service is ideal for homes built on expansive clay, fill dirt, or areas with poor drainage. Common signs: furniture that leans, cracked sheetrock above door frames, or a chimney pulling away from the house. We also help homeowners who have had previous “spot repairs” that failed because the piers weren’t driven deep enough.

How it works: We dig small access holes around your home’s perimeter or interior crawl space. Using hydraulic equipment, we drive galvanized helical piers or push concrete cylinders down to competent strata (often 15-30 feet). Each pier is load-tested on site. Then we attach new steel or pressure-treated posts and raise the foundation back to level using synchronized hydraulic jacks. Finally, we backfill and restore your landscaping.

Why choose Golden Retrofit? We don’t guess — we use real-time pressure gauges and slope monitoring to verify lift. We also offer a transferable warranty on our piers. Our crews are trained in confined-space safety, and we always clean crawl spaces of debris and old termite-damaged wood. For homeowners in Long Beach, we’re the go-to team for a permanent fix to sinking foundations.

Cracked, sunken, or crumbling concrete slabs aren’t just unsightly — they’re a safety hazard and can compromise your entire home’s structure. We provide professional slab replacement for residential and light commercial properties in Long Beach. Whether it’s a garage slab, patio, or the entire house foundation, our team ensures a flat, durable surface that meets modern codes.

You need slab replacement if you see wide cracks (over 1/4 inch), vertical displacement (one side higher than another), water pooling on the slab surface, or hollow sounds when tapped. For homes with post-tension slabs, we have specialized training to safely de-tension and re-tension cables. We also handle slabs damaged by tree roots, poor original compaction, or plumbing leaks that washed away soil.

Our process: After a thorough evaluation and soil moisture testing, we remove old concrete with low-vibration equipment to protect nearby structures. We then compact the base material, install rebar or wire mesh, set expansion joints, and pour new ready-mix concrete with fiber reinforcement for extra strength. We finish with a broom or trowel texture and apply a curing compound. The entire job typically takes 3-5 days, and we schedule daily cleanups so your property remains usable.

Golden Retrofit delivers superior slabs because we control every variable — from concrete mix design to finishing temperature. We also offer optional radiant floor heating integration or decorative stamping. For Long Beach homeowners needing a reliable, lasting slab, we’re the team to call. Plus, we coordinate with plumbers and electricians if utilities are in the slab.
