Foundation Repair Miami
Foundation Repair Miami, by Foundation Masters, LLC provides engineer-led solutions designed for South Florida’s coastal environment. As a licensed structural repair contractor with civil, structural, and geotechnical expertise in-house, we address foundation issues caused by high water tables, saltwater intrusion, coastal winds, and sandy or organic soils. Our approach combines accurate diagnosis, engineered repair plans, and precise installation—backed by written warranties.
Owner/project manager Jeff Earl and Civil Engineer Ken Sands, P.E. lead our Miami team, performing comprehensive inspections and delivering a clear contract with preliminary engineering drawings after your free visit. Whether you’re dealing with slab settlement, seawall-adjacent movement, foundation cracking, or moisture intrusion, every foundation repair in Miami is engineered for resilience in a coastal climate.
Why Choose Our Foundation Repair Miami Team
Miami properties face unique challenges: fluctuating groundwater levels, storm surge impact, salt-laden air that accelerates corrosion, and varied fill material from past developments. To meet these demands, we use engineered systems such as helical piers, push piers, pressure grouting, and concrete or wood/timber piling. Our helical pier installations for new construction include a 25-year transferable warranty, while concrete and wood/timber piling systems carry a 15-year warranty.
Because we design and manufacture many of our own repair products, we maintain complete quality control from material selection to final installation, ensuring consistency, verified capacities, and compliance with Florida Building Code requirements.
Engineering-Led Foundation Repair for Miami’s Coastal Soils & High Water Tables
Miami’s coastal geology combines loose sandy fill, organic soils, and limestone bedrock that can vary dramatically in bearing capacity — from as low as 1,500–2,500 psf in reclaimed or filled land to over 4,000 psf on competent rock. High groundwater levels — often 3–5 feet below grade — combined with storm surge, tidal flooding, and king tides create hydrostatic pressures of 250–350 psf on slabs, seawall-adjacent foundations, and retaining walls. Salt-laden air accelerates corrosion in reinforcement and concrete, while hurricane-force winds add lateral loads that older foundations may not have been designed to resist.
Foundation Masters LLC provides engineer-directed foundation repair throughout Miami-Dade County, including Brickell, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, and waterfront communities. Our solutions include helical and push piers rated for 60–120 kips per pier to stabilize and lift structures, pressure grouting to densify weak or voided soils, and engineered drainage systems to reduce lateral water pressure by more than 80%. For structural walls and hurricane-exposed foundations, we install carbon fiber reinforcement with tensile strength exceeding 50,000 psi or custom structural steel bracing. All work is designed in accordance with the Florida Building Code and South Florida permitting requirements, and backed by clear engineering documentation for insurance, resale, and long-term security.
