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.

A 20×6 foot section.of my concrete slab had cracked and sunk 2 inches along a downhill side. Groundworks crew Oscar Gonzalez and Riccardo Vargas drilled about 20 quarter-inch holes and injected expanding foam under the sunken slab to level it with the surrounding slab and tiles. The foam expanded laterally as well as upward and after curing is expected to stabilize the treated area to minimize further cracking and drifting. The foam is also waterproof and the slab started to dry out immediately after the treatments so tiles will not loosen from constant underground wetness. Crew was efficient, expert, clean and communicated well by explaining procedures in detail. Best repairoption for me and far less expensive than demo and repouring a steep concrete slab that would soon crack because the soil isn't stable with its high water content.

John and I are extremely impressed with Groundworks! Nate is an excellent Service Technician and he conducted a courtesy follow up, a year after. We couldn’t be happier, Nate’s assessment confirmed what we believed to be true and that is the work is holding strong. The work that Daniel and his team did stood the test time and will maintain our indoor garage. The communication from The entire team, but specifically, Nate and Daniel was absolutely outstanding. Many other companies can take a page out of the outstanding customer service of Groundworks. Bravo!
