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 found myself in the unfortunate situation to have a wall in my basement stabilized as it was gradually falling in. I had many options but chose JES Foundation Repair. What a fantastic choice! I received a phone call and a text message from the job foreman Joel Grade about 30 minutes before they were scheduled to arrive to start the work. Joel and his crew, to include Bryen Hailey and Karon Sherman arrived and were extremely professional from the jump. They explained the scope of the work, and made a conscious choice to minimize any impact to the rest of the house as they completed the job. The job took two days to complete and the guys walked me thru what was completed on each day, and were sure to make sure I had no concerns. I’m more than impressed with their work, and their customer service. I’d highly recommend JES for your foundation service needs. Doug Menapace Baldwin Maryland

OMG! FAST! I’m a short term rental Airbnb host. I had gas leak on my water heater. The gas company shut the valve off and RED tagged it! I had a house FULL of guests that were at work. I GOOGLED and found A1. Took a chance and called. I managed to get squeezed in same day! The young man came in to fix the problem just before the guests came in from work! I never had to alert my guests about the issue and didn’t have to lose in my reviews! A COMPLETE WIN! A1 lives up to the hype!! My technician was AMAZING! He shared pieces of jerky for my fur babies! He was professional, unbiased, and clean. He was in and out! My boys needs a raise or promotion to lead technician or something!

Foundation Recovery Systems did a great job installing piers and IntelliBraces throughout our basement. The whole crew was nice and professional and finished the job early! Thanks to Devan and his team that were here all week making sure our foundation is secure. (Note: In the photos attached, the piers and IntelliBraces were what their team installed. No demo/crack repair was in scope of our project.)

Jeff was straightforward and compassionate in a very stressful pseudo crisis basement situation, getting us through the inspection/assessment process, proposal and scheduling the project all within 24 hours. He communicated clearly and rolled with all of my questions and ‘big expensive decision’ jitters – addressing my concerns without making it worse.

So far I’ve just worked with Michael from Groundworks and got a quote for some cement leveling. The process was easy and communication all-around has been very thorough. Micheal reached out before the appointment to introduce himself and confirm the information. He showed up on time and was very informative and the quote was within what I had researched. He followed up quickly with a date to get the work scheduled as well. Look forward to getting the work done.
