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.

Top notch work from the crew at Groundworks. My foremen Richard Baird and Chase Mulvaney made the project a breeze, and everything was setup correctly after a correct diagnosis from AJ LaVoie, the Field Inspector. I can honestly say that if your home is in need of repair, these guys know exactly what they're doing. Their price is fair, the work was done quickly and professionally, and their customer service has been excellent. Great job men!

Ryan came to the rescue. I was defeated and did not have confidence after previous work that our issue would be resolved. I was mistaken. He worked hours doing a three man job by himself redoing work previously done. Was quick to identify the problem and take all proper steps. It took three visits but our basement is secure. He worked tirelessly and did so with a smile. A true gentleman that takes pride in his work and who he represents. I would absolutely work with him again. He was completely honest and transparent. Thank you Ryan. Sincerely Shelly and Travis!

Guys (Spencer & Ethan) were on time and explained what they were going to do. When the job was complete, they let me know when I could safely drive on it and answered more questions. They kept a very organized work area and cleaned up way more than I expected when they were done, I highly recommend this process if you aren't ready to totally replace your driveway – It is by far less expensive

Yiannis and Bernard arrived and instantly made me feel at home with this repair. Due to curiosity, I watched their entire repair and was amazed. Both Yiannis and Bernard were great with explaining the project with each step. I couldn’t possibly be more pleased. My Valley is blessed to have these two on the team.

Wendell W. came to look at my water issue. He did an excellent job of explaining what needed to be done to correct it. Cale, Shay and Joel came to start the waterproofing project and discovered that the back wall of my house was bowing. Martin came to evaluate what needed done. The team stabilized my back wall and also did the interior work to fix the water issue. Installing the stabilizing bars wasn't easy due to so much rock. The guys worked very hard (they had to rent another machine) and got the job done in one day!! The guys cleaned up the inside and left the outside looking great!! I look forward to seeing the system do its job. I would recommend Bakers Waterproofing! Thanks

From start to finish, Groundworks provided great work. I am a new homeowner, learning about the woes of maintaining a home. Unfortunately, the foundation on my 1960s house was affecting the ability to close my front door. Daniel Raymond gave me a free, but very thorough inspection of the foundation repairs needed on my home. I was pleased to find out Groundworks offers financing without interest. I probably could have found a more affordable company, but I felt comfort in knowing that the piers have a life time warranty and the foam a 5 year warranty. When the day came to get started on the foundation work, it began to snow. Dakota (structural foreman), Philip (co-foreman) and Jose (installer) still showed up on time and got to work. Although they did not get everything done due to the weather, they returned on Saturday (their day off) to finish where they left off. I especially appreciated that they returned to re-cement a few areas where the mailman and stray cats stepped on. Very sweet of them. On a separate day, "the poly guys" came to inject the foam inside and outside my house. Joe (poly foreman) and Alejandro (installer) explained the process before and as they were injecting the foam. For each section, they made sure I was happy with the results. My pups loved them! Communication throughout the whole process was excellent. I was able to call/text any of the foremen and inspector directly about any questions or concerns I had.I recommend Groundworks to anyone looking for quality and reliable foundation repair.

We have used JES Foundation Repair twice so far in select areas at the apartment community and will continue to use them in the future! We have received excellent customer service from Rob Tennyson. Rob was so helpful and thorough guiding us in the areas that needed attention. Fantastic and efficient alternative to pouring new concrete to fix trip hazards and back filling holes to deter rodents. Looking forward to our continued relationship as issues arise!

This crew was great. Jermane, Ezequiel, & Bryan arrived on time, introduced themselves, and explained exactly what they were going to do. I really enjoyed working with them, they were both professional and friendly. They took great care to protect the areas from dust that were not in the work area. They did a great job, cleaned up perfectly and explained how the pump worked and potential issues and follow- up procedures.

We hired Groundworks to address a problem with the portion of our home's foundation on a concrete slab. The slab has been sinking on one side. Three teams from Groundworks did the work to stabilize the slab. Daniel and his team prepared the surrounding area and installed 14 push piers. Along the way, they discovered a long-buried pipe that was in the way and helped us determine if it was still functional or not. Concrete sidewalks had to be removed to do the work. David and his team replaced the concrete after the pier work was done. Geff and Anthony did the work to inject foam under the slab to further stabilize the underlayment. Each of these teams did exemplary work. It was easy to discuss the processes with them, keeping us informed of progress all along the way, obviously taking great pride in doing good work. We were totally impressed with everything they did for us. Having such consistently performed work by a service company is truly notable. Each of these team members is deserving a bonus!

Having concerns about the foundation of your home can be overwhelming. I am so grateful to have found Groundworks! From the moment I started talking with them it was clear that customer service and professionalism is their top priority. Kalen the project manager arrived right on time, and was incredibly thorough in inspecting my home and spending time with me to make sure I understood his findings. Often when I’ve had basic assessments it’s with an estimator who will have no connection to the work, and I value the fact that Groundworks sends the person who would manage a possible project for the initial inspection. I highly recommend them!
