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.

Following extensive research, my wife and I selected Groundworks for the installation of a French drain and encapsulation in our crawl space. The project, encompassing a 40' x 80' crawl space, was completed within the promised timeframe. The final inspection included a thorough demonstration of pump operation and maintenance. The exceptional quality and dedication of their work were consistently demonstrated through their clear communication, courteous demeanor, and respectful engagement with us as clients. We highly commend Chris, Lamont, and Frankie for their outstanding contributions to our home. Tyrone and Cindy Shriver

I’m really happy with the work and conduct of the JES team. I hired them to install 6 pilings to stabilize a garage I had built 4 years ago. They arrived on time, and sent me a text on both mornings when they arrived. The crew was led by Santos Cruz, who was pleasant to speak with and was knowledgeable about the work being done. He answered all of my questions before and during the process. His team consisted of David Allerdings, Lucas Batista, and Joseph Wooten. All of the guys were very tolerant of my two Dogs who occasionally were sniffing and barking around the job site. Even though several of the holes were 5+ feet deep, they did a great job keeping them close to the building in an attempt to not dig up more than needed. The finished job looked very good, and except for the loss of grass, looked almost untouched. Additionally they buried a downspout pipe that had been previously laid on top of the ground which was a nice touch to finish off the job.

Ian, Justin and Tanner got my extremely disgusting crawlspace in good order in only three days! I have worked with many contractors in Wilmington over the years–here's what made this experience remarkable: they showed up every day and worked all day, and they were very friendly and communicative throughout. The date I was given for this back in October was the date they showed up. No delays, and once they started, they saw it through to the end. I'm very happy with tarheel basement systems and I'm glad I chose them.

Parker is a phenomenal rep, very professional and punctual! He provided all the knowledge we needed on restoring our old home. He jumped right into action on getting quotes and making sure we had everything available and ready to start our foundation repair process. Even as a former foundation repair man his walk through of all on goings in and outs and details of the job were highly respected and appreciated. This young man knows what he’s talking about and is happy to do it. 10/10

We had JJ out to look at our property. He showed up 10 minutes early and was very professional. He helped us understand the fundamental problems with water coming into our basement. He guided us in the first steps necessary to keep our basement dry. I would recommend JJ to anyone! My husband and I appreciated his honestly and directness. Groundworks is lucky to have him as an employee.

FSM completed work on my basement in November 2025. I am thrilled to say that my basement is dry this morning, after the tremendous storm last night, the pump installed is working great and my yard has no standing water. Jake Whitlow was the foreman on site and the crew was great!
