The most common signs of foundation issues

When the soil beneath your foundation becomes unstable, this causes the home to settle downwards. You see this activity as cracks , gaps , uneven floors , and doors or windows becoming more difficult to use.

Our process

How we repair foundation issues

The Geobear solution uses geopolymer injection combined with a custom engineered treatment plan for your property.

1

The treatment plan

Engineered solution

Each treatment plan is designed to the specific conditions of your soil, foundation, and issues.

2

Drilling

Site prep and drilling

Our technicians will scan for utilities, mark the drilling points, and drill to the required treatment depth.

3

Injection

Geopolymer treatment

We insert tubes into the drilled holes, this allows us to precisely inject the geopolymer at the required levels according to the plan. The tube is removed during the process.

4

Precision control

Laser monitoring

During the injection process we monitor the foundation movement down to fractions of an inch using laser level monitoring.

5

Job done

Easy site cleanup

With no heavy machinery involved, our crew will clean up their gear and equipment and leave your home looking undisturbed.

Most insurance policies require action once a defect is known. Ignoring it may complicate future claims or selling. Factor in "hidden costs" like alternative accommodation, storage, and replanting and landscaping, or fixing floors afterwards. Ideal if your priority is minimizing stress and protecting asset value without turning your home into a building site.

Are you concerned about liquefaction? 

If you live in a coastal area like Santa Monica, Long Beach, or Huntington Beach, your property may sit in a designated "liquefaction zone." For homeowners in these areas, earthquakes aren't the only threat—the soil itself is a hidden risk.

Geobear helps mitigate the risk

Geobear provides liquefaction mitigation by treating the vulnerable soil directly.

  • Soil densification: We inject our expanding geopolymer resins deep into the ground. 

  • Earthquake readiness: By solidifying the soil matrix, we prevent the ground from turning to liquid during seismic activity.

  • Zero excavation: Our process requires only 5/8-inch injection holes, meaning we can secure the soil beneath your home without touching your landscaping or interior floors.

Don't wait for the next major seismic event to find out if your foundation’s soil is stable.

Frequently asked questions 

About Geobear's solution and ground settlement concerns

Common signs include new diagonal cracks (often wider at the top), sticking doors or windows, and rippling wallpaper.

While these are strong indicators, the only way to know for certain is with a professional assessment. We can help with an initial, no-obligation consultation to evaluate the signs.

Traditional piering (underpinning / piling) is like open-heart surgery, requiring major excavation, concrete, and weeks of disruption.

Our solution is like keyhole surgery. We inject our material through small tubes, with no need to dig up your yard or have you move out.

It’s faster, cleaner, and far less stressful.

The cost varies depending on the scale of the problem and your property type. However, because our process avoids major excavation and is completed much faster than traditional methods, it is often a more cost-effective solution overall.

Don't wait for the damage to get worse

Ground settlement rarely stops on its own. Ignoring a sinking floor or spackling over a structural wall crack will only lead to more expensive repairs down the road. Contact us today.
