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.

The company came out to inspect an issue at the house we were purchasing. They arrived prepared and advised us on a plan to correct a foundation problem. Unfortunately, the repair was left to the sellers to fix, and they chose another company. However, I would recommend their services based on the promptness and knowledge provided. Thank you for advising us about the potential settlement of the house.

Basement waterproof system installed in 2 days by Earle Gamble's team was done efficiently and professionally. I chose AFS because the bid was competitive with other contractors and they were able to schedule service within 2 days of signing the contract. Jason Camp was able to quickly answer questions on email and delivered on his promises. We are very happy with the results.

I had an excellent experience with Bay Area Underpinning, thanks to Steve Kagin and his unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. The project faced some delays due to the City of Oakland, which was entirely out of his control, yet Steve went above and beyond to ensure I was taken care of. Steve Kagin isn’t just a salesperson; he’s a true problem solver who genuinely cares about getting the job done right. The project was ultimately completed within the expected timeframe, and I couldn’t be more impressed with Chris and his team. They provided daily updates, detailed explanations, and pictures, keeping me informed every step of the way. Their professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. I wholeheartedly recommend Bay Area Underpinning, and if you have the chance, I highly suggest working with Steve as your sales representative and Chris as the manager on-site. You’ll be in great hands!

Ben, Israel and Angel did an amazing job at our home. Ben communicated efficiently with us what their steps would be when they arrived and told us how long the job would take. They planned for a week but were finished in less than 2 1/2 days. We are thrilled with the work they did. We will definitely be recommending them to anyone who needs foundation repair.
