Services We Provide
Problems like foundation settlement, basement water, and sinking concrete are stressful, especially if your family’s safety and home’s worth are at risk. If you notice property damage, the following factors could be to blame:
- Expansive clay soils: Areas like Western Washington are known for having soils with high clay content, which might expand and contract at different times of the year and harm your home.
- Heavy rainfall: The average location in Western Washington receives 66 inches of precipitation each year, potentially leading to soil erosion that affects your home’s structural stability.
- Freeze-thaw cycles: Freezing and thawing conditions can cause soil movement and jeopardize your foundation.
Don’t let these issues threaten your home and family’s safety. With Groundworks by your side, you can create a healthier living environment and prevent more expensive repair bills down the line.

Matvey stopped erosion behind my salt water rip rap bulkhead. They were great to work with. They are professional and capable folks. From accurate estimate by Jim W. to knowledgeable installation by Danila and Valeri, the project was trouble free.

Working with Richard, Ricardo, and TJ was a pleasure. Richard helped identify some beams that weren't fully supported and Ricardo and TJ came out to do the work about a week later. They were prompt, communicated clearly, and made sure to walk me through the project before and after. They did great work and I'll definitely be calling again if there are any issues!

Matvey/Groundworks resurfaced my garage floor in Bellingham. The team showed up early, prepared for a little rain, got to work and completed the job by about 4:00. pm. They were friendly, professional, fully independent, and did an excellent job cleaning up. The floor looks fantastic, with even disbursement of the flake and nice clean edges. Thanks guys!
