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.

riendly, professional, and a great result! We feel a newfound confidence in our house again with a clinically clean encapsulation system complete with dehumidifier and two sump pumps! Having previously gotten work with Alpha on our foundation we were impressed with the results by Keith and team, so we had our house crawlspace encapsulation service done by them as well. We learned about our need through the inspector Jordan who was very helpful and worked through options/payment plans to find something that worked for our house and budget. Will, Chris, and Freddy from Alpha came out about a month later for the two day job. They were very friendly and approachable and communicated the whole process clearly. They were even accommodating to our particular requests, such as our request for them to evacuate any frogs before laying down the system, haha. Our crawl space used to be nothing but dirt and debris(and frogs) and a sauna of humidity but now it just what the word sounds like, encapsulated. Effectively a basement of sorts. Clean and white, like a hospital clinic! See below pics for more to see the sump pump (black circle with pipe) and dehumidifier (the box). They were able to already start bringing the humidity down with the new system before they even left the second day. We are so thankful for their friendly demeanor and it was a pleasure welcoming them into our home (or rather under it) as they delivered a great result! We will now sleep easy at night knowing our house is on literal solid ground!

Foundation work can be expensive, but it can help to lessen the bite when you deal with good people. Groundworks of Grand Junction, CO recently completed a significant stabilization project for us. The crew foreman was an impressive young man named Talon (yes, like the bird claw). He and his crew got after it, completing the project before the scheduled finish date. He was knowledgable, personable, helpful, and clearly interested in doing the job right. I also dealt with Groundworks' service tech Jeremy Brown before and after the project. He surveyed the situation and worked with his people to develop a stabilization plan that was approved by my structural engineer. After the stabilization work was finished and had a few months to settle in, Jeremy retuned recently to re-measure floor elevations to see if they were where they were meant to be, and everything checked out. Jeremy is a good guy to work with; I trusted him and was always pleased to see him show up at the job. Kudos to both Talon and Jeremy who inspired confidence in the work Groundworks performed at our house.

Derek Olsen visited for initial inspection of our house crawl space. He was thorough in his inspection and discussed various solutions. He was very professional and on time, and spent serval hours assessing the condition of crawl space and foundation. I highly recommend Groundworks for initial assessment.

Phil Ralph’s came to our home to perform an evaluation on our failing concrete. He was extremely thorough of the process, and very respectful. He even took the time to educate my family as to what causes concrete issues. He was understanding of our needs, and paid attention to what our concerns were. I would highly recommend him.

Compared to the other companies that c ame out and gave me estimates, groundworks was without a doubt top of the list. Groundworks representative spent an hour mapping out all the hollow spots in my driveway. The other companies spent less than 10 to 15 minutes and ended up not finding several of the spots that were actually hollow. So if I would have hired them the job would not have been completed properly. Luke and Anthony came out and did a superb job drilling the driveway and filling it with the polyfoam. They ground out the 20-year-old seals and replace them with the good stuff and I am extremely pleased with the job. Groundworks is top-notch in my book. They're the ones you should call honestly.

We were very concerned about the pool issues being able to be fixed at all. Alex Young and Matt Wertz were absolutely incredible at raising our cement (while Rod Bixler and I were asking a million questions) and recaulking the whole pool area. They were both very personable, and we could not have asked for a better experience with them and Groundworks Co. Our friends will definitely be hearing about all the outstanding effort they put into fixing our pool! Thanks so much !!
