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.

William and his crew ( Russell and Levi) from Ohio basement Authority. Did an excellent job on a recent waterproofing of our basement and encapsulation of our crawlspace. We also had a sump pump installed and did an excellent job on installing with very minimal impact to our yard. Would recommend them any time.

My experience with groundworks has been very positive. Both the digging crew of Juan P, Lalo, and Stefan and the polyfoam crew of Ivan and Diego did a great job. Everyone was very respectful and professional and got the work completed quickly. My only complaint would be having the communication between the crews be a little bit better.

Ain't sure I'm posting this right but Josh, Brendan, and Lee did an excellent job with the place. I know the foundation was a wreck but they worked with me every step and worked around the various hiccups that came about during the on site work, cant recommend them enough. Absolute saints frankly, house don't wobble when I walk now.

Russell Chilcote did a great inspection and let me know what was needed for mold remediation in our crawlspace. Juan R., Alejandro S. and Ce'sar B. did a fantastic job removing all of the old crawlspace insulation, putting in the new insulation and cleaning and removing the old mold on the wood beams. They caulked all of the seams and added insulation to fully fill in the entire space. Highly recommended.

They crew just finished fixing my driveway and pool deck (this was from hurricane damage). Yesterday they put in some pilings to lift/support a slab on the corner of my pool deck. They did an excellent job. Both crews were very nice, friendly, and professional. I will gladly hire them again. In fact, I'll likely ask them to come back in a few months and check my foundation. I would gladly recommend them to friends, family, and neighbors.

Jon Trak was our field inspector and even though we didn’t receive the best news regarding our foundation he made the whole situation extremely pleasant and he was the utmost professional. His truthful candor is without rival. His calm demeanor put us at ease and let us work through a tough decision. We will forever remember the way in with which he carried himself and the way he worked with us. We felt like more than just customers, he treated us like family. Thank you John.

Thorough and efficient. I was extra needy and they were very respectful and fulfilled all my wishes wo question. The price beats the local competition by far too. I don’t want any more foundation issues but if I had more of them, I’d use this company again.

Lee was probably the nicest plumber I’ve ever dealt with. This was an after-hours emergency and he got here quickly, figured out the problem, and fixed it within an hour! I highly recommend A1 Sewer and Drain. They are the best!
