Common Foundation Problem Signs
Foundation damage shows visible signs that repairs are necessary. Look for diagonal cracks on foundation walls resembling stairsteps or doors and windows that are difficult to open and close. Although freezing and thawing cycles occasionally occur in the state, the primary threat to foundations comes from the diverse soil compositions across New Jersey. This diversity creates uneven pressure and movement on foundations: sandy soils shift rapidly, while clay expands with water and shrinks with drought, stressing the structure. Ignoring foundation issues can lead to significant damage. Maintain your home’s integrity and safety by contacting a professional for repairs at the first sign of damage.
Our Simple Process
What Causes Foundation Problems?
A sturdy foundation is crucial for the stability of your New Jersey home. The different soil types exert significant pressure on home foundations, potentially causing concrete cracks, settlement, sinking sidewalks, and bowing basement walls, among other damages.
Understanding the complex relationship between soil, weather, and your home’s foundation is vital to addressing issues correctly. Prevent further deterioration and costly repairs by taking proactive measures when you first notice signs of damage.
Groundworks’ solutions are tailored to the specific needs of New Jersey homes. Our innovative methods target the root causes of damage, ensuring a long-lasting and effective repair.

Foundation Pier Systems
Foundation piers are essential for reinforcing unstable foundations and ensuring long-term stability. Groundworks installs three types of foundation piers: helical piers, push piers, and slab piers. Helical piers are installed by rotating into the ground, penetrating deep into load-bearing soil, similar to the operation of an auger. Push piers are driven hydraulically through unstable layers until they reach a more stable stratum below. Slab piers, designed specifically for slab foundations, are installed beneath the concrete to offer more extensive support.
By transferring a home’s weight onto stable soil, foundation piers prevent settlement, potentially lift sunken foundations, and guarantee stability. Soil conditions and the current foundation damage determine the pier type used for repair.
Foundation piers provide reliable support for New Jersey homes. Groundworks offers a comprehensive, long-term warranty with every repair.
Wall Anchors
Wall anchors secure the foundation wall to the underlying soil, providing stability against New Jersey’s expansive clay soil. Constructed with triple galvanized steel plates, these anchors stabilize the foundation, preventing further movement. Any necessary adjustments post-installation ensure that the basement walls remain in their original, upright position. Wall anchor installation also minimizes landscaping disturbance, and the steel plates can be discreetly concealed during basement finishing.
Groundworks’ wall anchors come with a comprehensive, long-term warranty, guaranteeing the safety and security of your New Jersey home.
