History
Spouses Bob and Vicki Genord started Foundation Systems of Michigan out of their home after noticing a gap in services in the area. They focused on educating the customer about the issues with their home and the repair methods. In 2020, FSM partnered with Groundworks, the nation’s leading and fastest-growing foundation and water management solutions company and immediately expanded its service coverage. FSM has an A+ rating with the BBB and was honored by the Livonia-Westland Chamber as Outstanding Business of the Year in 2024. Today, FSM continues to serve Michigan homeowners under the Groundworks name.

Highly recommended. The speed in which my containment and insulation work occurred was commendable. After receiving three quotes we went with FSM. Very pleased with the results provided by Alex, Marcus, and Trevor. They were professional, polite, and respectful. The crew was on time, went right to work, answered all my questions, reviewed the blower and dehumidifier operations. From free inspection to job completion, FSM made things quick and easy.

We recently bought our first home and after the first heavy rainstorms of the year, we found water in our basement. Jim Nesbitt came out to inspect our foundation and was incredibly kind, professional, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain the issues clearly and helped us understand our options for repairs. As first-time homeowners, we really appreciated his guidance and honesty. We’re looking forward to working with the company to get our basement fixed. Highly recommend!
