Home Repair & Construction in Alameda, CA

Alameda’s historic homes and flat, low-lying lots shape the work homeowners ask us about, from foundation support to drainage and dry rot repair.

Working on homes in Alameda

Alameda is known for its large stock of Victorian-era and early twentieth-century homes. Many have original framing, wood siding, and under-floor supports that can deteriorate with age and moisture.

Because much of the island is flat and close to the Bay, water can be slow to drain away from foundations. Drainage improvements and moisture-related repairs are a common part of projects here.

Common concerns for Alameda homeowners

  • Older wood-frame homes

    Siding, trim, sills, and posts are inspected for dry rot and repaired or replaced as needed.

  • Flat-lot drainage

    Grading, French drains, and sump pumps can help where water collects near or under the house.

  • Foundation support

    Deteriorated piers and posts are replaced and supplemental supports are added where spans need them.
