Solving facility managers' toughest challenge: disruption
As a Facility or Property Manager in Southern California, you are the first line of defense. When a property owner sees a crack, or a warehouse tenant reports a sinking floor, they expect an immediate fix.
Traditional repairs—like underpinning or tearing out concrete—are a nightmare. They mean noise, dust, angry tenants, and weeks of lost rent or downtime.
Geobear offers a better way. We are the "keyhole surgery" solution for buildings. We fix the ground problem from the outside or through tiny holes, often in just one day. No moving out, no excavation, no complaints.
A time and money saving partner for insurance companies
As a trusted partner to the insurance industry, Geobear has won multiple awards for revolutionising the subsidence claims process. Our solutions are a faster, less disruptive, and more sustainable alternative to traditional underpinning methods. Instead of weeks of disruption, our projects typically take 1-3 days on site, allowing customers to stay in their homes and avoiding the need for expensive and inconvenient alternative accommodation. Furthermore, the claims lifecycle is vastly reduced to months, rather than years. Our approach delivers clarity and speed, resulting in an improved Net Promoter Score (NPS) from your customers.
The Technical Why
Why some building foundations in California fail
Your owners and stakeholders need to know why this is happening. It isn't just "settlement"—it is often a specific geotechnical failure common to the region.
We don't just patch the crack; we treat the ground to solve the root cause.
Loose sand & poor compaction
In rapidly built communities, deep fill or reclaimed land may not have been perfectly densified. This leads to slow, long-term settlement of commercial and residential portfolios.
Clay or silt soil composition
Southern California has many areas with clay or silt-heavy soils that can lead to problems - especially when weather events happen.
Leaking pipes, utilities, or pools
Leaking swimming pools or community utilities wash away fine sand particles, creating voids under boundary walls and foundations.
