We've earned 26 five star reviews.

"Just wanted to say how extremely smooth this process was. I had my inspection with DJ, who was very knowledgeable and patient with all of my questions and concerns. He walked me through the whole process and we identified the areas of work. My living room floor was settling and we decided to provide additional support, along with the addition of a SumpPump. Fastforward two weeks…..Brian, Daniel, and Franco came to install and position the beams in place. They also filled any cracks that I had around the foundation of the house. The work was professional and clean. Brian and the team are top tier and did a great job walking me through the whole thing. If I need any additional work, Groundworks will be the first I call. Highly recommend them! Thanks!"

Types of Basement Damage in West Orange

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in West Orange

Foundation Cracks

Cracks in foundation walls or floors can let water seep into your basement, especially during heavy rain.

Poor Drainage Systems

Ineffective drainage, such as clogged gutters, downspouts, or poorly graded yards, directs water toward your foundation.

Hydrostatic Pressure

Water in the soil builds pressure against basement walls, filling the clay bowl, and forcing water through cracks and joints.

High Water Table

Rising groundwater during heavy rain or snowmelt can seep into your basement through cracks or porous concrete.

Faulty or Missing Sump Pump

Water from heavy rainfall or flooding can accumulate in your basement without a working sump pump.

Plumbing Leaks

Leaking pipes or fixtures near your foundation can saturate the soil, causing water to seep into your basement and cause moisture related problems.
