Mission Hills, California Residential Repair Specialists

For most homeowners in Mission Hills, their home is their most valuable investment, and still many homeowners remain unaware that their homes were built on shifting soil that doesn’t fare well under our frequent dry-then-rainy seasons, or our frequent earthquake activity. Homeowners in Mission Hills, especially those living in homes built 60+ years ago, must remain vigilant and determine periodically whether or not the foundation under their valuable property is still in good shape. This is one area where an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and where a homeowner can stop small issues from becoming large ones!

And even if your foundation is damaged, you can get it repaired fairly easily if the damage is not too extensive. For example, cracks in your foundation that measure up to .25 inches can be filled with epoxy that binds the two foundation sections together. Moreover, steel rods can be anchored in place, and then reinforced with new concrete. Weinstein Construction’s Mission Hills foundation repairing professionals can fill you in on all of these techniques, as they have a solution to fit every budget!

Not all homeowners know this, but the typical Mission Hills house operates as a system, which has as its base the home’s crawl space (that shallow, unfinished area beneath the home’s first floor). Although most folks never go inside this dirt-lined area, they really should, because whatever air is in inside that crawl space is quickly making its way up and inside the home, to be breathed-in by vulnerable family members! The issue is that unfortunately, humid crawl spaces can fast become breeding grounds for mold, mildew, fungus, and rot (as well as the occasional dead critter!). As such, if the home’s crawl space is a humid mess, that nastiness will travel upward and into the home’s living space.

Let the professionals at Weinstein Construction isolate your home from its crawl space by adding an ultra-durable polyethylene vapor barrier liner to your crawl space and install an affordable crawl space encapsulation system. Our liner, which is made of anti-bacterial materials, offers excellent protection! We will also install an “Energy Star” rated dehumidifier to continuously “condition” your crawl space air and keep it dry! Weinstein Construction is your local Mission Hills crawl space encapsulation specialist – we are just a phone call away!
