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.

Our home of 31 years had developed foundation problems directly related to ground water that eroded the earth under one corner of our foundation causing a two inch drop on that corner of the house. An underground spring had erupted in the earth beneath our home that had overwhelmed our current French drains and single sump pump. Groundworks came in and engineered a ground water mitigation system with a new crawl space drainage system, two state of the art sump pump systems with backup pumps and alarms, replaced our vapor barrier and raised and underpinned our foundation corner. Their work met all engineering plans and passed all inspections. They came back out twice to make minor adjustments ensuring all was to our satisfaction. The water mitigation crew of Anthony, Jordan and Jonathan and the Foundation crew of David, Tripp and Keegan, as well as the staff behind the scenes coordinating the work, engineering, scheduling, and permitting all did an exemplary job in essentially saving our home. I can’t say enough about their attention to details and making sure all our needs were met. I most highly recommend Groundworks.

We had our yearly inspection with Caden… he was absolutely genuine and very professional. He noticed that there was black mold in the crawl space and he recommended that have it insulated and waterproofed. We also needed some electrical work done to allow our sub pump to run properly. Our project was scheduled for Feb 3rd. We were extremely impressed with how well the foreman Iran * communicated with us and made sure that the project was completed to our satisfaction. His team of Chris *. And Earl * were extremely friendly and did a great job with clearing out the mess from inside the crawl space. We are very pleased with how well the project was completed.

Justin, William, and Bryant from DryPro Systems spent the week addressing all the issues in my crawl space and there were a lot. I couldn't have asked for a better, more professional, respectful as well as incredibly pleasant team. They were easy to have in and around my home for the week and treated me with the utmost respect, explaining each step as they went along as well as any issues they encountered. They were real gems. Thank you for the excellent work and incredible employees.

Very professional and courteous. Did a great job. Explained every step and what to expect. The crew of Jakalon and Rama were beyond fantastic. I can be a bit too much looking over the shoulder with my engineering mind but they were each gracious in assuring I understood every step of this intriguing process. My circle driveway was full of obvious voids, all cracked up and warped lopsided. They raised it all, in one spot 3.5 inches to flush. Just did a fantastic job.
