Our customer, Robert, is a real estate investor who recently purchased a San Clemente home to repair, improve, and resell. After pulling up the carpets, there were large, concerning cracks in the floor that gave the investor cause for concern. Repairs to the foundation would need to be handled quickly and cost-effectively to stay on track and maintain profitability. Robert was concerned the cracks would get worse if left untreated and began to look for solutions to the subsidence issue affecting the home. However, time was of essence.
He reached out to a few foundation repair companies in the area to assess the damage and get quotes for repairs. The soonest consultation was 3 weeks out – and that would cause timeline issues. The first option was to use helical piers to stabilize the foundation. When evaluating the high cost, time, and cleanup required for a pier solution, he knew he had to find other options.
But then, he was referred to Geobear. After speaking with our team, understanding more about geopolymer injection, and seeing the quote for substantially less than the alternative solution, he made his choice. He was convinced that geopolymer injection would help him maintain profitability on the project – especially considering the additional costs associated with downtime, redoing the landscaping, and other expenses.
Geobear technicians were onsite within 3 days of Robert’s call. Geobear’s team commissioned a soil engineering report that showed the investor specifically where the problems were in the soil. The Geobear engineering team designed a plan and scheduled his service date. Geobear’s expert team was able to complete the work in days compared to weeks with competitive solutions. In fact, Geobear completed the work within 3 weeks of Robert’s first phone call!
On completion of the project, Robert was able to resume his remodeling work and prepare the property for listing. He was extremely satisfied with the results and was able to improve his profit margins on the investment with Geobear’s innovative, hassle-free solution.
