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.

AFS is extremely professional. They scheduled a time for their free assessment of our crawl space, called with 30-min notice to let us know they were on their way, and then performed a thorough inspection with a detailed report. There was no upselling, as our crawl space was in great shape, and they could not have been any friendlier. I’ll refer for sure.

Spencer and Ethan did a great on my small driveway lift project. Although at an additional cost, they went out of their way to grind off some sharp edges and fill in a large joint with calking. I look forward to working with DryPro in the future.

I was in the process of deciding whether to do a new front porch or try to get my front porch leveled. I called Indiana Foundation and was put in touch with Kevin Clinebelle for an appointment and was extremely satisfied with the level of knowledge from Kevin and how Kevin took the time to explain things to me. We decided to go with a new porch due to the fact as Kevin indicated, that the brick may not be salvageable. I can tell you this, if I was going to have my foundation or porch leveled I would use Indiana Foundation because of Kevin. Kevin was polite, Knowledgeable and genuinely cared about how I was moving forward and agreed with the process we chose. He was not pushy and he was not a typical salesman who only cares about making a sale. Don’t get me wrong, Kevin would’ve loved to have the work, but it just didn’t make sense as that was explained to me after I told Kevin of the situation. Just for Kevin to take the time and talk to me and listen to me means a lot In today’s business world. It is truly nice to know that there’s businesses like Indiana Foundation and people like Kevin who are not just focused on getting the sale at any cost. Thanks again Kevin for all the great advice!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Clarke Miller from JES Foundation Repair, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From the moment he arrived, Clarke was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly thorough. He took the time to carefully inspect our home, patiently explained what he was seeing, and answered all of our questions without ever making us feel rushed or overwhelmed. What truly stood out was Clarke’s honesty and integrity. He didn’t try to upsell us on anything we didn’t need—instead, he offered clear, practical solutions and helped us understand every step of the process. It’s rare these days to come across someone who is not only an expert in their field but also genuinely cares about doing right by their clients. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your home as if it were their own, Clarke Miller is the person you want. Thank you, Clarke, for giving us peace of mind and for going above and beyond. JES Foundation Repair is lucky to have you on their team!
