Groundworks Provides Professional Sioux City Foundation Repair, Basement Waterproofing, and More

Situated near the northwestern part of Iowa, Sioux City is located in both Woodbury and Plymouth counties, with the majority of the city being in Woodbury County. “Siouxland” refers to Sioux City and the surrounding areas of northwestern Iowa, northeastern Nebraska, and southeastern South Dakota and is a term of endearment amongst local residents.

Situated at the furthest upstream point of the Missouri River, Sioux City is both a travel destination as well as a peaceful area to live. With an average annual rainfall of nearly 26 inches, it is slightly below the national average. However, it’s the fact that more than 60 percent of that rain falls during the summer months when humidity levels often reach 90 percent, that’s the problem. Add in the annual 30 plus inches of snow, and it’s no wonder Sioux City homeowners deal with wet basements and crawl spaces nearly year-round.

The area’s soil differs depending on where you live in Woodbury or Plymouth County. Most soil is silt loam-based with varying levels of clay. The soil across the region also has different degrees of drainage, ranging from well-drained to poorly-drained. To sum it up, homeowners in Sioux City can experience several different types of foundation problems because the soil conditions differ considerably from area to area.

CJ came out and did our free estimate and he was wonderful! He answered all of our questions, gave us great advice, and set us up with a date to get our basement waterproofed. Jose and his team of waterproofers were fantastic! They were very respectful, knowledgeable, and timely! We had nothing but a fabulous experience with everyone at groundworks. I can’t thank these guys enough for all that they do!

Micah is awesome! A very great ambassador of the GroundWorks brand and a pleasure to have in our home. After our meeting, I have all the information I need to make an informed decision. He was extremely thorough, respectful, and knowledgeable about our foundation issue, and was able to communicate the options in a way that made sense. I loved our conversation and feel like he really knows what he's talking about. Thanks for sending him to help us with this issue! Highly recommend!

I recently had the privilege of having my basement crawlspace encapsulated (3-layer protection) by Groundworks and I am beyond thrilled with the results. The project included the installation of a sum pump, 75 feet of drainage line, drainage mat, insulation, and heavy-duty plastic, and after just a couple of days, the improvements have been remarkable. In the past, my basement was plagued by a stagnant pond-like odor, a constant temperature of 59 degrees, and uncomfortably high humidity. Now, thanks to the encapsulation, the odor is completely gone, the humidity has been cut in half, and even without the subfloor installed, the temperature has noticeably risen. It’s incredible how much of a difference the encapsulation has made already. I first encountered Groundworks at the Home Show in Denver, where their display of encapsulation systems stood out as the best of the show. Their products were clearly superior to the competitors, both in quality and appearance. After receiving multiple bids, all of which were similarly priced, we ultimately chose Groundworks—especially after seeing how they provided honest, straightforward information without using scare tactics to upsell additional products. What truly set this experience apart, however, was the exceptional leadership and professionalism of the job foreman, Guillermo Hernandez. From start to finish, Guillermo and his team exceeded my expectations. Guillermo was not only professional and knowledgeable but also incredibly attentive throughout the entire process. He kept us fully informed at all times, conducting daily walkthroughs to show us the progress and outline the plan for the following day. His communication and dedication to the project were top-notch. Guillermo’s crew—Memo, Lazaro, Ulises, and Diego—were equally impressive. They were all punctual, respectful, and hard-working, giving their best to every aspect of the job. Their attention to detail and insistence on perfection were evident, and their commitment to delivering quality results was remarkable. It was some of the most intense labor I’ve ever witnessed, and I’m grateful for their hard work. Overall, I’m extremely happy with the job done by Groundworks. The encapsulation has already made a huge difference in my basement’s environment, and I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of this type of work. A special thank you to Guillermo and his crew for their professionalism, hard work, and dedication to excellence. I am attaching before, during and after pictures.

I had a great experience with Groundworks Omaha! I had bowing walls in my basement that needed support and was referred to Groundworks by a coworker who had a positive experience with them. I was contacted immediately after I submitted an online request and Jon and Mark came out within a day and conducted the inspection. They were very professional and helpful and did a great job of explaining the situation, what they recommended, and why. After accepting their proposal, the project was scheduled within a couple of days and Luis, Martin, Tyler and Jouse arrived as scheduled to do the work. They reiterated the work they were to perform to see if I had any questions or concerns and then immediately set to work and completed the project to perfection in a timely manner. All four of them were courteous and professional and very conscientious about doing a great job in a timely manner. My experience with Groundworks was exceptional from beginning to finish and I highly recommend them without reservation. Thank you, Groundworks!

I was trying to sell my home and, upon receiving an inspection, found I had a bowed wall in my basement. I called Groundworks. Sergio Robles came to my house with his equipment. He was polite, friendly and knowledgeable. He explained and demonstrated the problem so I could understand what needed to be done. The price he quoted was very reasonable so I signed up to have the work done. A couple weeks later a crew came out. It included Emanuel V, Luis V, and SaAung P. They also were very pleasant. They worked efficiently and had the job done quickly. They had to cut out drywall and I was very happy that they cleaned everything up. The dirt outside was put back and the house looks great inside and out. Thank you Groundworks for a job well done.
