Methods of Fixing Foundation Problems
How can you fix your foundation problems? Groundworks offers two main methods of fixing foundation concerns, with a variety of options that can help you permanently.
Foundation Repair and Reinforcement
Whether you have a basement or not, there may be times where your foundation itself has sinking or settling concerns. In this situation, you may need to boost the foundation from underneath. Your local foundation repair professionals provide multiple fixes to help you boost the actual foundation itself.
Wall Repair and Reinforcement
The second method of foundation repairs is wall repair and reinforcement. Specifically, this comes into play when you have a basement that’s having foundation concerns. That can often turn into bowed basement walls, which you may need to reinforce. Your local foundation repair professionals offer three different methods of wall repair and reinforcement in this situation.
We get it right the first time, every time, and our solutions are built to last.
FAQs About Foundation Repair
No, DIY foundation repairs won’t fix your foundation problems. Foundation problems run much deeper than the surface, so you need specialized equipment and expertise.
Yes, foundation problems are pretty much always serious. Your home’s foundation supports every other element of the home, so without a strong, stable foundation, your home is at risk of collapse. That’s why it’s so important to fix every foundation problem as soon as you’ve uncovered it.
Yes, foundation problems are not something that you can just leave alone. When you start to see basement floor cracks and other signs of foundation issues, that means you’ve caught the problem early—which is great! But you need to address the problem to stop them from turning into even more serious issues.
Foundation repairs aren’t always covered by homeowner’s insurance, but you should contact your provider to make sure. Every Groundworks company offers affordable financing with reliable warranties, but read our guide on homeowner’s insurance for foundation repairs for more in-depth information.
Foundation Repair Is Easier Than You’d Think with an Expert
One of the reasons many people worry about foundation repair is because they’re concerned it’ll be difficult. This is an understandable fear, but when you have the help of an expert, it’s not that scary. You can schedule your free inspection with Groundworks today and learn firsthand how important it is to have an expert along for the ride.

Contacted Eaglelift to lift a slab in my backyard as it was dropping, we negotiated a price, and a few weeks later Nicki called and said they were coming. Pleasant lady to talk to who helped answer all my questions. She sent Forman Rodger and the crew Kevin who were very courteous, clean, and pleasant to interact with. They lifted the slab no problems, cleaned the area, and I was very impressed with the job they did. I would recommend them and if I need them again they would be the first one to call. – John in Upland

This was my second experience with them. The first waterproofing of an industrial building works perfectly for years now. We used to have massive floods after heavy summer rains. No more flooding! This time they did structural work to my home. They installed helical piers under a section that had no foundation. They added a beam across to support the piers and replaced rotted wood that they came across, as well. In the basement they installed waterproofing membrane and vertical steel beams along the wall. Looks good, we shall see if it stands the test of time.

I called Indiana foundation service and they called me immediately back or should I say I filled out a form on Facebook I got a call from Richard . He set up an appointment for today so within 48 hours I had an appointment. He arrived when he said he was going to, he was very professional and so friendly.hat He showed me all my problems going on in my basement I felt so good about all the information that he went over with me. I'm going to have his company fix my issues and finally be done with a wet basement. He's been here almost all day long explaining things going through details answering all my questions and my fears. He did an awesome job ! I would highly recommend Richard and the company he represents for anyone with basement issues. Hopefully all the other people that work at this company have the same personality as he does, because he is very friendly, professional and it was a joy having him at my house! I look forward to having my basement dry . Thank you, Richard Flores

Thank you JES for a job well done. The crew, led by Foreman Charles Byers, were very professional, conscientious, courteous, hard working young men. Charles explained everything they needed to accomplish as they went along. This was not an easy job, running into several unexpected problems due to inadequate, unstable, unusual footing work done by the builder of 20 years ago. Our pier issues were solved due to the diligent hands on hard work performed by this crew, along with the JES engineers and supervisors that were consulted. They were calm and considered this job just another problem to be solved. This two day job became a labor intensive five day job. We are so very pleased with the final outcome, knowing our house is now safe due to this wonderful crew. Thank you Charles Byers, Chris Weddel, Garrett Williams and Reed Norvel.

Everything about Ohio Basement Authority is top-notch. Starting with Certified Field Inspector Alan Lefebre, who brought a high degree of professionalism to the mix. No pressure, very informative, and let me make my decision without any "coaxing" or "directing" by him. Needed a new sump pump, with all of the rain heading to Central Ohio, and he had a crew here within a few days (1 was a Sunday). Got us bumped up several notches to "emergency" status. The installation crew arrived on time, took special care not to soil our carpeting, cleaned up the work area thoroughly, and took time to go over the installation and the equipment (includes batter backup). I highly recommend this company.
