Professional Floor Leveling Services in Santa Clarita Valley, Santa Monica and All of Southern California by Waterproofed.com's Experts.
Sloping floors in homes and buildings are not simply a nuisance—they can indicate structural issues. We offer floor leveling services that address root causes, not just symptoms. Our Santa Monica–based team levels and repairs concrete and wood floors, garage slabs, and basement foundations with excellent results.
Through years of experience and state-of-the-art equipment, Water Proofed has earned the distinction of being a top provider for professional concrete floor leveling in Santa Monica. Our method corrects uneven floors now and helps prevent future issues—supporting remodeling, new flooring, and everyday comfort.
Planters are more than just decorative—they are part of your structure. When improperly sealed, they can become hidden sources of costly water damage. Understanding the risks of unprotected planters is the first step to preventing long-term issues in your deck, balcony, or living space.
Planters are constantly exposed to water, soil, and root systems. Without proper waterproofing, moisture seeps into the structure below, damaging concrete decks, rusting rebar, and promoting mold growth.
We recently worked with a homeowner in Sherman Oaks who had hairline cracks forming on her balcony ceiling. The source? A decorative stucco planter above had no waterproof coating. Water had saturated the walls for years. The damage was extensive—costing thousands in structural repair. A simple waterproofing membrane could have prevented it.
Uneven floors can quickly escalate into major structural concerns. Proper leveling is not just cosmetic—it protects your foundation, your investment, and peace of mind. Read below to learn how our concrete and wood floor leveling process restores safety and stability.


We do not take shortcuts. Every floor leveling project follows a strict, proven process that ensures long-term protection and performance.
The first and essential step to success. We visit your property to measure slopes, identify structural issues, and check for moisture intrusion. Understanding how and why the floor behaves a certain way informs our plan.
No two floors are the same. Based on our findings, we may grind high spots, fill low areas, add structural support, or use self-leveling compounds—coordinated with your final floor (tile, wood, carpet, epoxy) for the best outcome.
With your approval, we use laser-guided levels, concrete grinders, self-leveling mixes, and structural reinforcement to bring floors into true. Our clean, efficient crews minimize disruption in tight hallways or large garages alike.
After leveling, we verify slopes and tolerances, tidy the work area, and provide care guidance for your flooring install. Our goal is long-term stability that feels invisible day to day—and dependable for years.
Water needs a clear exit path. We install or correct drains, scuppers, and weep screeds to prevent standing water. In a recent Brentwood apartment complex, poor drainage in rooftop planters caused leaks into multiple units. We re-sloped the planters and installed new drainage trays—problem solved.
Your garden should thrive—without compromising your deck or home. That is why we use waterproofing systems that are as safe for your plants as they are effective at stopping leaks. Every product we apply is carefully selected to balance performance and eco-consciousness.
Concrete is durable but not indestructible. Soil movement, moisture, temperature changes, and structural shifts can cause sagging, cracking, or sloping. Our leveling services use high-quality equipment and self-leveling compounds to within a millimeter—preparing basements, living areas, garages, and commercial spaces for safe foot traffic, flooring installs, and machinery.
Wood floors require special care. Sagging, cupping, and warping are often caused by moisture or weakened substrates—especially in older Santa Monica homes. We assess subfloors and joists, rebuild where needed, and deliver a level, durable base for hardwood, engineered wood, or laminate.
The result: improved appearance and performance—especially in areas with shifting soils or humidity.
Waterproofing should never create new problems with your HOA or local regulations. That is why we follow Los Angeles building codes, meet HOA guidelines, and back every project with a clear warranty.
We handle permitting, noise regulations, and HOA approvals. Our work meets Los Angeles County building codes, and we provide the documentation your management company may request.
All our planter waterproofing and coating services are backed by warranties ranging from 5 to 15 years. We also offer annual maintenance plans for high-rise buildings and commercial properties with extensive planter systems.
When you choose Waterproofed.com, you get more than a quick fix. You get work that lasts, stays compliant, and gives you confidence for years to come—whether for your home, HOA, or commercial property.
