Perma Level Division - Foundation Underpinning, Stabilizing and Leveling
Valentine Corporation's Perma Level Division specializes in foundation underpinning, stabilizing and leveling in the SF Bay Area and is a Magnum Piering Certified Installer. Since 1978 Valentine Corporation Perma Level has repaired many foundations throughout the greater San Francisco Bay Area. Perma Level works on both residential and commercial properties to correct foundation settlement caused by a variety of conditions. These conditions range from highly expansive soils, to poorly compacted fill, to improper drainage. In most cases, structures and foundations are not only stabilized, but they are also leveled at little or no additional cost to the owner.
Perma Level uses a system that is non-invasive and is much faster than the older methods of underpinning and stabilizing because there is less excavating. Jobs take on average, one to two weeks to complete. Additionally, when the push piers are tested, they are immediately locked off in place without waiting for concrete to harden. Hence, repair time is greatly reduced. The push pier system we utilize also provides minimal disturbance to the owners and occupants of the structure being stabilized.
