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.

Working with Foundation Support Specialists has been a very positive experience. No one wants to have a house sinking into the ground, but if you need to rectify that situation you want the company to be professional, get the job done correctly and do it on a timely basis. FSS accomplished that. Paul Rangel did the inspection and provided the bid for the job. He was very detailed in his explanation of what needed to be done and answered every question. Fernando Aleman, Justin Hammond, and Moses Martinez completed the work in the agreed time. Fernando kept me updated as the work progressed and explained the one change order that needed to take place and how it was approved by their engineering department. When the work was completed they did an excellent job of cleaning up. I now have doors that close properly. The work is guaranteed for life and the guarantee is transferable.

I had a great experience with Bakers Waterproofing today. I used their concrete lift service on my driveway and front sidewalks. The team I had was awesome. Aaron Lenker and Anthony West were fantastic. They were very professional, friendly, and efficient. Aaron reviewed the work ahead of time to make sure we were on the same page and based on his experience we avoided some potential problems. After watching the process I can say Aaron was a real artist at the lifting process and Anthony was a pro at the joint sealing process. I’m very happy with the results and the professionalism of the entire Bakers experience. I’ll add pictures soon.
