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.

Jacob, Quinton and Gabe did a great job with my house. They stopped the sinkage of my foundation and were quick and responsible with their work. They even did an above-decent job with returning my outside landscaping to the same look as before (a load of gravel is really all that is needed to fix it up). I had a problem job in that I have in floor heating, but they cleaned everything up well so I can get the appropriate people in to finish that. Just know that you may need some additional work done afterwards to get your outside space or your basement back in order. Overall, I’m really happy with the work and I’m glad that I will not have any more cracks in the walls or tiles… my house is fixed and I’m so relieved!

Zach and his crew of Jacob and Keith showed up ready to work and worked without a break for about 5 hours (when the project was complete). Zach confirmed everything they were going to do that the salesman, Rick, had set up. He walked me thru each step and when the project was complete, we went back over each area to make sure I was happy.

Needed a set of concrete steps straightened, lifted and stabilized, along with two concrete pads lifted, leveled and stabilized. John Beck immediately responded and scheduled a time to inspect this problem. He explained the process and helped me understand how it would work. He never hesitated and had an estimate in my hands in what seemed like minutes. Today, September 27, 2024, Demetrius and Josh arrived at my house exactly when they said they would, reviewed what was going to take place, let me take videos so I could show my wife and were the most pleasant young gentlemen I had the pleasure to meet. They are experts. By the way, they took less than two hours to fix a problem that would have taken a minimum of 4 – 5 days (being conservative) and probably 6 times the cost. Very reasonable expense (with a guarantee ) Among other things, my reaction and response was “wow”.

Had a potential issue with our foundation and called Groundworks to come out and check. Jeremy was friendly and looked at all concerns I had. Jeremy said that our foundation was okay and that the cracks were cosmetic. If I ever need any foundation work done, I will be calling Groundworks again. Thank you so much 😊

My garage apron was in need of repair. IBA did a fantastic raising job. Grant C and Mark F worked together very well to achieve a professional result. They were very personable, listened to my concerns and followed thru. I recommend IBA to anyone needing concrete lifting. Their product is superior to concrete filler and cures much faster. They did a good job on cleanup also.

Brian C (field engineer) and Steve (install crew leader) are phenomenal. We hired a previous company to do the install, it was botched, and these two saved the day. True professionals and thoroughly impressed with their follow through. Even after the install, they've continued to support the product on questions after the fact. Highly recommend these two for any basement project

Max came inspected the house and professionally explained what was wrong and what they needed to do to stabilize my house. Tory and Curtis then came and fixed my house. Both were nice and took their shoes off before I even asked. They were very careful to not let the cats out. A+ service all around.

Donnie provided a quote for raised foundation reinforcement. He was very professional and patient explaining the condition, considerations, and options. His quote was thousands less than prior estimates I had received and gave me high confidence the solution would be long lasting. Brett & John completed the install and were friendly, prompt, effort, and professional. They addressed all questions and concerns and left the space cleaner than they found it. Great experience!

Ian and Justin did a great job installing a sump pump system for us. Communication in advance of the job was great and they were true to the arrival times promised. They kept us up to date on the work in progress and gave a thorough walk-through afterwards to make sure everything was to our satisfaction and that we understood the system.
