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.

We had OBA lift our concrete home entrance pad and connected walkway. Over the years this had become a safety hazard. The work was done as agreed too: curing the hazard and improving the look of the walkway. The OBA project team, Ryan an Bryan, were excellent to work with. They explained what they were going to do and kept us informed periodically as they progressed. We are pleased with the results.

This is for the workers. They were polite, very helpful and they worked so hard getting my house jacked up and secured all with me living in it. They helped to move stuff around for me, so they could take up floors. I can’t say enough good things about Walter Z. Yzquierdo, Freddy Zavaleta, Walter Zavaleta and the rest of their crew.

I hired AquaGuard to stabilize my foundation and waterproof my basement and their crew was awesome! Very respectful and explained the process to my full understanding. Found issues that weren't uncovered until the paneling was removed and we were able to get everything handled and stabilized with my home. The job was major but with the professionalism of Joseph, Nick and Kavon and their work ethics I can rest assured the work was completed with team work and integrity!

JES encapsulated and installed a sub pump in my crawl space 2 years ago. All was going fine then recently within the last month the sub pump alarm sounded 4~5 times. Chris Lamb came out today (Saturday) and troubleshot the issue to a faulty pump. It will be replaced this week. Great Job Chris for actually troubleshooting and determining the root cause. JES should give this guy a pay raise on the spot now!

I had some work done to resolve water collecting under an addition of our home late last year. Crew did a great job, were professional, and was happy with the end product. Recently had some rain and some concerns came up. Stopped by local shop and JR and his crew were unloading from another job. Talked with him about concerns and he followed me out to my house immediately. Checked everything to make sure it was working properly and did some additional work to resolve some other issues not covered under warranty/service plan. JR and his crew also hung around to discuss some other concerns not related to their work. Extremely helpful, professional, and would definitely recommend them.

I couldn’t think of anyone to do the job better. Thank you guys.
