House Leveling Alberta
Your House Has Settled — Here's What's Happening
Sloping floors, cracked drywall, doors that swing open on their own, and gaps where walls meet the floor. These aren't just cosmetic issues — they're signs your foundation has moved. In Alberta, this is incredibly common in older homes, rural properties, and any house built on post-and-beam or block foundations.
Why Alberta Houses Settle
Alberta soils — especially clay — expand and contract dramatically with moisture changes and freeze-thaw cycles. Over decades, this movement takes a toll on foundations that weren't designed for it.
- Clay soils that swell when wet and shrink when dry
- Frost heave pushing footings out of position
- Original foundations that were undersized or poorly built
- Water drainage directing moisture toward the foundation
- Tree roots growing under or against the foundation
- Natural soil compaction and settlement over decades
How We Level Your House
Full Foundation Inspection
We examine every accessible point of the foundation, measure the settling, and identify the root cause — not just the symptoms.
Strategic Lifting
Using multiple hydraulic jacks placed at calculated points, we raise the house gradually and evenly back to level.
Foundation Repair & Reinforcement
We repair or replace damaged footings, piers, or support beams. Everything gets proper bearing.
Long-Term Stabilization
We address the underlying cause — drainage, soil conditions, or inadequate original construction — so the problem doesn't come back.
