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 recently had the privilege of having my basement crawlspace encapsulated (3-layer protection) by Groundworks and I am beyond thrilled with the results. The project included the installation of a sum pump, 75 feet of drainage line, drainage mat, insulation, and heavy-duty plastic, and after just a couple of days, the improvements have been remarkable. In the past, my basement was plagued by a stagnant pond-like odor, a constant temperature of 59 degrees, and uncomfortably high humidity. Now, thanks to the encapsulation, the odor is completely gone, the humidity has been cut in half, and even without the subfloor installed, the temperature has noticeably risen. It’s incredible how much of a difference the encapsulation has made already. I first encountered Groundworks at the Home Show in Denver, where their display of encapsulation systems stood out as the best of the show. Their products were clearly superior to the competitors, both in quality and appearance. After receiving multiple bids, all of which were similarly priced, we ultimately chose Groundworks—especially after seeing how they provided honest, straightforward information without using scare tactics to upsell additional products. What truly set this experience apart, however, was the exceptional leadership and professionalism of the job foreman, Guillermo Hernandez. From start to finish, Guillermo and his team exceeded my expectations. Guillermo was not only professional and knowledgeable but also incredibly attentive throughout the entire process. He kept us fully informed at all times, conducting daily walkthroughs to show us the progress and outline the plan for the following day. His communication and dedication to the project were top-notch. Guillermo’s crew—Memo, Lazaro, Ulises, and Diego—were equally impressive. They were all punctual, respectful, and hard-working, giving their best to every aspect of the job. Their attention to detail and insistence on perfection were evident, and their commitment to delivering quality results was remarkable. It was some of the most intense labor I’ve ever witnessed, and I’m grateful for their hard work. Overall, I’m extremely happy with the job done by Groundworks. The encapsulation has already made a huge difference in my basement’s environment, and I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of this type of work. A special thank you to Guillermo and his crew for their professionalism, hard work, and dedication to excellence. I am attaching before, during and after pictures.

After weeks of communicating with Brandon via telephone, weather finally cooperated for us to meet and to discuss our project need. Basement authority could not have a more friendly, cooperative and professional front man. His patience in adjusting and rescheduling appointments due to inclement weather was bar none. We are a hard sale customer, and Brandon met the challenge with ease. His expertise was evident, and his attention to site detail was beyond expectations. He readily answered all questions, and thoroughly explained the onsite process. Attention Management: Brandon should be considered a gem to your organization. He is indeed a great representative for you! We signed on the dotted line and very much look forward to working with him. Thanks much, Brandon!

Called to get an estimate to lift the concrete decking around the outside edge of my pool. The outside of that portion of the deck had subsided making the deck unlevel and left a gap between the deck and pole tile. Lee Davis came out within a couple of days. Very friendly and professional. The estimate was actually less than what I feared. Work was scheduled for the end of October, but I got a text later that said they could do it on the 1st. The only complaint I have is that when the 1st came, I didn't hear from anyone until 2pm that they were on their way (weather was iffy). Suggestion, give an arrival window like other companies or call the day before or both. I wasn't sure anyone was going to show. Shawn and Chris arrived. They are actually with a sister company from Atlanta up here helping out. They went right to work and knocked the project out very quickly. The pool is very old, so I wasn't expecting any miracles. It's not perfect due to the age of the pool, but it looks a lot better and you can feel the difference when you walk on it. 5yr warranty. Highly recommend.

Tim McGrath game out to our home to inspect and recommend a solution for our crawlspace. He was a pleasure to work with and gave us a complete explanation of the work that needed to be done. On the scheduled day, Foreman John J. and Jared did an excellent job! They arrived on time, and worked hard to meet high standards. Their dedication made me feel confident and reassured. John J. and his team explained the process to me. The team continuously pointed out important details and shared information as they worked to ensure I understood the project. Everyone was very informative and professional. They patiently addressed any concerns, which helped me feel more at ease. I am very pleased with the results. I will choose Groundworks for future projects and recommend the company to others! Thank you again! Susan Romano

Jacob was professional and knowledgeable. Eased my mind on a wall I was concerned about and didn't try to just "sell a fix". These are the people you want to do business with when you're taking about repairs that could get costly should you need them. Would highly recommend doing business with them.

We are still making decisions on who to perform the work, however John was extremely thorough and helpful in his evaluation of work that should be completed and I never got the sense he was just trying to make a sale.

This is the second time we’ve used Groundwork’s. Jacob, Richard, Timmy and Christian were here for five days water proofing our crawl space that was filled with water and mold. They completely encapsulated it, added a sub pump and an air filter system. They did an incredible job and communicated daily on their progress and findings. The crawl space looks amazing! I want to give a shoutout to Daniel who showed up on Christmas Eve to inspect it and get us an estimate. Highly recommend Groundwork’s.
