What Saber does
Saber Foundation & Concrete Repair is a Southern California specialty contractor providing structural foundation repair, concrete lifting and leveling, crawl space encapsulation, seismic retrofitting, seawall and bulkhead repair, and stem wall repair for residential and commercial customers. The company operates as an independently owned dealer within the Supportworks international foundation repair network, which provides access to proprietary technologies including PolyLevel polyurethane foam injection, push pier systems, helical piles, CleanSpace vapor barriers, and wall reinforcement products (Geo-lock, PowerBrace, CarbonArmor). Service delivery relies on trained installation crews performing on-site physical interventions, with technical differentiation centered on less-invasive methods and faster completion relative to traditional approaches (e.g., concrete leveling completed in days rather than weeks).
The business model is project-based and quote-driven: customers receive free on-site inspections and estimates, and pricing varies by scope, property size, and repair requirements. Go-to-market combines a content-rich website, local chamber and realtor association partnerships, inbound phone and form leads, and direct field sales with project design specialists. The company serves primary customer segments of residential homeowners and commercial property owners/managers across 9-10 Southern California counties (Imperial, Kern, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Ventura), with episodic municipal and enterprise engagements. Distribution relies on direct field sales, inside sales via a toll-free number, realtor referrals during real estate transactions, and direct government contract engagement. The company is privately held and locally operated, with no disclosed private equity, venture capital, or parent company ownership. Franz Froehlich serves as President and Owner. Historical milestones include establishment in 1993, expansion into Imperial County via a Brawley location in 2001, and recognized top-tier performance within the Supportworks dealer network in 2016 and 2018.
