The entire Bay Area
San Francisco, the Peninsula, the East Bay, the South Bay, Marin and the North Bay.
Same day or next day
Most inspections are scheduled for the same day or the next business day. Our team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Four steps, and the first three cost nothing.
You are not committing to a repair by calling us. You are committing to finding out what is actually going on under your house.
-
01
Tell us where it hurts
Call, or leave your name, phone and email. Describe what you have noticed: a crack, a sloping floor, a door that stopped closing, a damp crawl space. We book a time that works.
-
02
We measure on site
A technician walks the property, the crawl space and the perimeter, and takes floor-elevation readings. Measured, not eyeballed. Free, and with no obligation.
-
03
You get the report
A written, accurate, up-to-date report on the condition of your house, plus a detailed estimate for any work we recommend. Both free. Both yours to keep.
-
04
Only then, the work
If you decide to go ahead, our crew schedules the repair, pulls the permits the job requires, and works to the scope you approved in writing.
Most contractors leave a number. We leave a document.
A verbal quote tells you what someone wants to charge you. A written condition report tells you what your house is doing, which is the thing you actually needed to know.
- Floor-elevation readings across the house, so movement is a number rather than an opinion.
- What we found, where we found it, and how serious each finding is.
- What we recommend doing about it, and just as often, what needs nothing.
- Yours to keep whether or not you hire us. Show a lender, a buyer, an insurer, or a second contractor.
Foundation work, start to finish.
Bay Area houses fail in Bay Area ways: soft soil, hillside lots, unbraced cripple walls, a century of settlement. These are the repairs that answer them.
Underpinning, book a free inspection
Piers driven to stable soil or bedrock to carry a foundation that is sitting on ground that will not hold it.
Seismic retrofitting, book a free inspection
Cripple-wall bracing, sill-plate anchor bolts and shear panels: the work that keeps a house on its foundation when the ground moves. Often required at sale or by an insurer.
Concrete pouring, book a free inspection
Footings, stem walls, slabs and flatwork, formed, reinforced, poured and finished to the engineered spec.
Foundation leveling & slab jacking, book a free inspection
Sunken slabs and sloping floors lifted back to level and re-supported, so the doors close and the floor stops running downhill.
Crawl space repair, book a free inspection
Rotted posts and girders, sagging joists, failed piers, moisture and drainage. The parts of the house nobody looks at until they give way.
Crack injection, book a free inspection
Structural epoxy and polyurethane injection that seals a cracked wall against water and restores the concrete’s continuity.
Turnkey Engineering & Construction Solutions
The concrete is only half of a foundation job. The drawings, the permits and the inspections are the other half, and we carry all of it so you never have to stand in a city office yourself.
- Certified Engineering Comprehensive structural blueprints, expertly drafted and stamped.
- Seamless Permitting End-to-end municipal permit acquisition and processing.
- Strict Code Compliance Rigorous adherence to all current local building codes.
- Final Inspection Management We coordinate and oversee the final city inspections to secure official project sign-offs.

The things people ask before they call.
There is no catch. The on-site inspection, the estimate and the written condition report are all free, and you are under no obligation to book any work afterwards.
We would rather be the company you call for a straight answer than the one that charges you for a look.
Most inspections are scheduled for the same day or the next day. Our team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so you can reach out whenever you notice a problem.
If you are working to a deadline, an inspection contingency or a close of escrow, say so when you call and we will prioritize it.
Honestly, from a photograph you often cannot. Width, direction, whether it runs through the foundation or only the stucco, and whether it is moving all matter, and so do the floor elevations in the rooms above it.
That is exactly why the measurement is free. Not every crack needs work, and when that is the answer the report says so.
It depends on how the house is built. Older houses with a raised foundation and an unbraced cripple wall, or with no anchor bolts tying the framing to the foundation, are the usual candidates.
The inspection tells you which category your house is in. Retrofit work also comes up regularly as a condition of a sale or an insurance policy.
Yes. Nativ Foundation LLC is fully licensed, bonded and insured in California, and carries both general liability and workers’ compensation coverage.
Our California contractor license number is CSLB #1160635, and we can send the certificates on request.
