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 had a consultation with Paul Grauer yesterday, and I must say I was extremely impressed with how thorough and professional he was throughout the entire process. He took the time to clearly explain the company, the foundation repair process, and how the materials would be applied, ensuring I fully understood every step. What stood out to me most was the level of care and patience he showed during our conversation. He even encouraged me to call my wife so she could be included in the discussion and have all of her questions answered as well. At no point did I feel rushed — he made sure we were comfortable, informed, and confident in the process. That level of customer service and attention to detail is exactly what earned my business. I’m now genuinely excited to move forward with the repairs and appreciate the experience Paul provided.

Exceptional Service and Trustworthy Company I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Cody and his remarkable team at AFS. When the initial installation fell short, they stepped in with unwavering dedication. Cody personally assessed the situation, and his team worked tirelessly to fix all the issues. The best contractors were mobilized, and they expedited the resolution. Not only did they address the technical aspects, but their commitment to customer satisfaction was extraordinary. Cody went above and beyond, ensuring that we were completely satisfied. He met with us face-to-face, patiently addressing our concerns and making certain that every detail was taken care of. Itâ  s rare to encounter such personalized service in todayâ  s business landscape. What truly sets AFS apart is its integrity. It stands by its product and its word. Its veteran-friendly ethos isnâ  t just a marketing ployâ  itâ  s genuine. But it doesnâ  t stop there. AFS is also family-oriented, inclusive, and rooted in human values of faith. I wholeheartedly recommend it for its exceptional work, outstanding team, and unwavering commitment to its customers.

At my request, Colby came by to have a look at a foundation issue. Turns out it wasn’t as bad as I expected. He did find a completely different problem, did his inspection and gave a quote for the potential work. ANY time a contractor says you don’t need work done, you’re dealing with an honest and trustworthy company. Highly recommend them for any work you require.

FRS will stand by their warranty and it is transferrable. Had to get a different crew out to remedy the prior team’s errors…. Night. And. Day. I salute the new crew that came out to remedy the issues I had addressed to management. They sent out the pros. It is nice to feel like the money you spent on your home looks like the money you spent. Thank you, guys.

Really great service. Punctual, great communication, and extremely thorough. I had Cody come out to look at my crawl space. He sat down with me to fully understand all my concerns and did a very detailed look around the house and in the crawl space. He was here for an hour and they didn't charge me a dime. I would hire them in a heartbeat if I needed something fixed.

Chris from JES was great when he came out to look at our basement and help us try to diagnose and solve our problem. He was friendly, informative, thorough. He listened to what I had to say and considered my ideas, went all around the house looking into every nook and cranny, spent a good deal of time talking to me about what he felt was happening and what should be done about it and why. He showed me pictures, drew diagrams, answered all my questions… I was impressed!

Just had Marshall Boyles inspect my sump pump that the company installed in my home in 2021. I would like to commend Marshall for his terrific work ethic. He is the first employee that really answered my questions in a clear and concise manner. He tightened wall anchors with care managing not to scratch my recently painted game room. He took time to clean the outside of the pump area. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you Marshall for a job well done!

Guys (Spencer & Ethan) were on time and explained what they were going to do. When the job was complete, they let me know when I could safely drive on it and answered more questions. They kept a very organized work area and cleaned up way more than I expected when they were done, I highly recommend this process if you aren't ready to totally replace your driveway – It is by far less expensive
