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.

I had an incredible experience with Ohio Basement Authority. I needed significant work done in my basement to help stabilize the floors and support lifting the house over time, and the entire process exceeded my expectations. Scot, the sales rep, was outstanding. His communication, clarity, and ability to walk me through the “what,” “why,” and “how” made a huge difference. As a homeowner, I felt informed and confident every step of the way. He also set the project up seamlessly for the installation team. Daniel, the foreman, and his crew were equally great. He was very communicative, clearly explained what would be done over the two days, and kept me updated throughout the process. The team worked efficiently, stayed on schedule, and did a great job minimizing disruption. They were also very respectful of the space and made sure everything was cleaned up afterward. Overall, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Their communication, efficiency, and attention to detail really stood out. I would highly recommend working with them, quality work!

I'm very impressed by the customer service and diligence of the workers here. Tyler Grace spent hours with me identifying my foundation issues. Corey and his crew then did an amazing job correcting the issues AND saving me money by not doing unneccessary work. I never would've known, so you can trust these guys! I'm very much appreciative of their hardwork. Thank you.

Austin T, Wyatt S, Zane H and Bryce J did a fantastic job on our basement house leveling project. They all were efficient, professional and knowledgeable. They were able to reuse the cement footings rather than pour new, which adjusted the price and saved us money. Very honest and trustworthy company. Definitely will use them for future needs and highly recommend.
