Drainage & Water Intrusion
Standing water against a foundation, saturated slabs, failed area drains and negative grade at building perimeters — diagnosed and re-graded, not just patched.
What We Do
Construction Services
Three CSLB classifications let us carry a project from demolition through final inspection without handing scopes between contractors. Below is what that covers.
B-1 — General Building
Structure, Additions & Rehabilitation
Rough carpentry and structural work built to engineered plans and current California code, from a single beam replacement to a full second-story addition. We pull the permits, sequence the inspections and dry the building in before finish trades start.
- Room additions & second stories — framing, roof tie-in, envelope and finish
- Structural framing & shear walls — engineered timber, hardware, hold-downs
- Patio covers & timber structures — attached covers, pavilions, shade structures
- Interior remodels — kitchens, baths, flooring, cabinetry and finish carpentry
- Building rehabilitation — dry rot, deteriorated exterior elements, tenant improvements
- ADA & code-compliance work — ramps, landings, clearances and access routes
C-27 — Landscape & Site
Ground, Drainage & Hardscape
Most exterior failures are water failures. We correct grade and drainage first, then build the concrete, masonry and hardscape that sits on it — so the finished surface is still flat and the wall is still plumb in ten years.
- Grading & excavation — site prep, cut and fill, compaction, pad preparation
- Drainage correction — area drains, French drains, runoff and water-intrusion remediation
- Concrete flatwork — slabs, driveways, walkways, patios, curbs and steps
- Retaining walls & masonry — reinforced CMU, block, brick, stone and pilasters
- Pavers & hardscape — interlocking pavers, decking, planters and seat walls
- Irrigation & grounds — irrigation systems, artificial turf, planting, exterior lighting
- Outdoor living — outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, fire pits and BBQ islands
C-53 — Swimming Pool
Aquatic Construction & Rehabilitation
New pools, full structural remodels and the unglamorous work underneath — hydraulics, bonding, equipment pads and deck drainage. Because we also hold the building and landscape classifications, the deck, wall and structure around the pool are ours too.
- New pool & spa construction — excavation, steel, plumbing, shotcrete, finish
- Remodels & structural rehabilitation — shell repair, re-plaster, waterline tile, coping
- Hydraulics & plumbing — re-pipe, main drains, returns, correct line sizing
- Equipment & automation — pumps, filters, heaters, controls and safety compliance
- Water features — spillways, raised walls, sheer descents and fire elements
- Facility modernization — aging aquatic facilities, decks, drainage and access
Repair & Remediation
When Something Has Already Failed
A large share of our work is fixing what someone else built, or what time and water took apart. These are the calls we get most often.
Deteriorated Exterior Structures
Dry rot in posts, beams and patio covers; spalled concrete; cracked or leaning masonry. Removed back to sound material and rebuilt to code.
Failed Hardscape & Flatwork
Heaved, cracked or delaminated patios, walkways and driveways — demolished, base corrected and repoured with proper joints and reinforcement.
Aging Pool Systems
Leaking shells, undersized or non-compliant hydraulics, dead equipment and unsafe drain configurations brought back to current standard.
How We Work
From First Call to Final Walk
Site Visit & Scope
We walk the site, measure, photograph conditions and tell you honestly what the work involves — including anything we would not recommend doing.
Written Estimate
A line-item scope with allowances and exclusions stated. No lump-sum guesswork, and no discovering the exclusions after demolition.
Permits & Schedule
Plans, permits and inspection sequence handled before mobilization, with a schedule you can actually plan your own life or operations around.
Build & Close Out
Our crews on site, inspections cleared as we go, punch list completed, site left clean and the warranty documented in writing.
Not Sure Which Trade Your Project Needs?
That is usually a good sign it needs more than one. Send us the address and a few photos and we will tell you what is actually involved.
