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.

Ronald came to do an inspection of the basement and service the sump pump and he was amazing! He was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain what he was seeing and what he recommended. He was able to use examples and language I could understand (not being in the business). I was very happy with his work and he settled my anxiety about the leak I was experiencing. Ronald is exactly who you want to come and inspect and do work on your home. He serviced the sump pump quickly and effectively and cleaned up all the mess! We all need a Ronald in our lives!

Justin Emond arrived at our home to do what we both thought would be a normal annual checkup. Instead, I needed a new battery and a new pump and the crock needed to be flushed. All this was happening in a house where the water and electricity and gas had been shut off as a tree had fallen on our home. He did a fabulous job and improvised using a hose and hooking up to the neighbors’ water so that the crock could get flushed. He also explained to me how these pumps work which I’ve never quite understood. He worked very efficiently and I was most impressed with him and with Foundation Systems Of Michigan.

TJ was our inspector, and I greatly appreciate all of the information he shared with us about our cellar. He did a full inspection of the house and cellar space, drew up a plan, and let us know all of our options. There were no pushy sales tactics, and he was completely open to me asking questions after our appointment was over. Very responsive, and very informative. We cannot proceed on our project just yet, but will absolutely choose AFS whenever we are ready to move forward!

Indiana Foundation Service is very fast and professional. The scheduling process was easy and I was able to schedule my consultation quickly. They send you appointment reminders and have their team members contact you to introduce themselves before they come out for the consultation. They sent Kelly for my consult and he did a great job. He took the time to explain the issues to me and provided a lot of useful visuals and examples. He was very knowledgeable and experienced. Very professional company I would highly recommend them!

Archie was the tech that came to my house on March 6th 2025 and did the annual maintence for my French Drain. Archie was professional, on time and let me be downstairs in case questions were asked about the system. Archie was happy with the results of the testing. He gave me an A so everything was good.

Had our annual service done today on our dehumidifier that was install one year ago. Had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Matthew Kelly Service Technician with Aqua Guard. He did an outstanding job inspecting the space that the unit was placed in and the dehumidifier. Clean the filter and also corrected an adjustment that made the unit breeze better. We are thankful for meeting Mr. Kelly Would highly recommend him to anyone
