Free Inspection Licensed Engineers Lifetime Warranty All Foundation Types

With 45.0% of San Bernardino County housing built before 1980 and a median construction year of 1978, Big Bear City has an aging housing stock where foundation problems are increasingly common. Older foundations were built to different standards and have endured decades of soil movement and moisture exposure. With 65.7 inches of annual snowfall and 6,402 heating degree days, Big Bear City experiences significant freeze-thaw cycling that forces soil to expand and contract around foundations. This repeated movement is a leading cause of foundation cracking and settlement in San Bernardino County. Notably, 45.0% of the county's housing stock was built before 1980, meaning many homes feature older foundation designs, inadequate drainage, and materials that have been exposed to decades of soil stress. Foundation Repair Crew connects Big Bear City homeowners with licensed structural engineers who provide a free foundation inspection, written diagnosis, and repair recommendations - at no cost and no obligation.
