I want to thank you for your service to our basement since we got flooded in June. Casey came explained everything to us. He made it easy to understand. We scheduled to have it done. Leonard and Anthony were sent and 2 days later they were done after working about 10 hours per day. They were so professional and answered all our questions. They were great. Can’t say enough about them. Thank you again so much. Janice B Rosebro

I requested information and a quote to repair water damage and seal cracks in my basement. Nathan was well informed about services and products to repair damage to the existing walls and floor. He showed me videos and explained the different options available. Nathan did a great job. I appreciate his time and knowledge as a field inspector.

LJ, Anthony, Kevin and Mike were amazing,! We didn't realize how poorly the basement had been left behind the plywood walls until this crew came to get it sorted. They weren't phased by anything, that level of confidence in a crew was so reassuring for us during this project. The work was done quickly and so thoroughly!

I called Groundworks due to a sinking sidewalk and driveway issue on my 1-year-old build that I had purchased 6 months ago. Groundworks sent out John Maness who was the most professional, and knowledgeable inspector i have ever dealt with when dealing with companies that provide home services! Even though the company is located in Fargo, they sent him out in less than a week, and he was willing to work around my busy work schedule. Johns thorough attention to detail when inspecting my home highlighted not only the issue with my concrete, but also a few hidden issues with moisture that I did not know that I had. John was prepared with all the tools and knowledge necessary to inspect my house, and had a proposal ready to fix my issues within 2 hours! What was even more mind-blowing was the actual cost to repair my concrete, and mitigate the moisture issues that I had with my home was beyond reasonable!!! Also the after service care and service that will come with my repairs and equipment is amazing!!! This company is top-notch and they will not sell you anything they do not need. I had other questions about some things that I noticed with my foundation that i had concerns about. I was informed by john that they're not here to sell me something that I don't need and he was able to show me why the the perceived issues that I had were in fact not an issue. The whole process of repairs were outlined in easy to understand videos showing the root cause of my issues and how they can fix those issues permanently, not just a bandaid! The best part about it is they will come out annually to check their work and make sure that everything is still in working order, and that the repairs that they have made on my concrete is in fact still doing its job!! They had many options for payment to include financing at an amazing rate if someone were unable to afford the repair costs. The whole process was smooth and painless. I would 10/10 recommend ground works for any foundations issues that I had to anyone!!!! Thank you Groundworks for helping me protect my investment!

Would 100% recommend this company for the services they provide. The salesman, Kendall, worked with me directly and honestly. He was very patient, answered all my questions and made sure I understood the process prior to the work being done. The Forman on site, Chad, consistenly checked with me on the work that was done to ensure I was satisfied. He even worked extra when they were not getting the answers they needed to sign off the final paperwork.

Had a great outcome on the finished product. Ty did an amazing job of identifying the issues and addressing them in a professional manner. He treated us with respect and really felt he listened to us. Leonard was involved from the beginning of the job till the end and did a great job of explaining the work he was doing and answered all of our questions in detail so we understood what to expect. Anthony and Ghaven did a wonderful job finishing up and cleaning everything up. Very friendly and professional. I would recommend Innovative Basement to anyone.

Foundation Experts in Fargo

Located on the North Dakota-Minnesota border, Fargo and surrounding communities like Moorhead, Fergus Falls, Wahpeton, and Jamestown are familiar with frigid winters and humid summers. These extreme elements put stress on a home’s foundation.

Basement and foundation issues including bowing and leaking walls are common in homes near the Red River Valley. Due to the area’s positioning on a large flat plain, flooding has also been a common issue. When that excess water pools around a home, hydrostatic pressure can build up and cause foundation cracks, pooling water in the basement, and mold growth.

While weather can be a driving force when it comes to basement and foundation damage, the type of soil around your home is also a contributing factor. For areas like Fargo where silty clay soil is common, you can expect poor drainage that can lead to pooling water around your home.

If you’ve noticed cracks or leaking in your home, you’re not alone. At Innovative Basement Authority, we’ve helped thousands of homeowners in the Fargo-Moorhead area, and we are here to help with your foundation repair, basement waterproofing, and crawl space repair needs.
