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.

Craig and Jeremy did a great job today! There was a bit of a scheduling miscommunication to start the day (not their fault), but these guys were called in and saved the day. Good work lifting our front stoop 2-3 inches and leveling it out. Keep up the good work!

I had a great experience with Groundsworks. Scott was extremely friendly and did a thorough (and free) evaluation of our foundation. Scott informed me that our foundation is currently in great shape, and he carefully showed me his analysis of the property. Since the foundation is in good shape, he had no recommendations and told me that we don't need to spend any money on this right now. I really appreciate the honesty and helpfulness of this company; especially not trying to make any money from us when there were no problems. It sounds like, from other reviews, that they are honest and helpful when repairs are needed. I would recommend.

Colin came out and did an inspection and was very thorough and professional. Alpha handled the city permits and everything. Colin also checked in with me before and after. Logan, the foreman and Lane came out to do the actual work. We had to have some foundation work under our house. Logan talked me through the whole process and the entire job only took a few hours. He was very professional and kind. Everyone was great to work with! I chose Alpha based on recommendations from friends and I’m very happy with the work and communication. They had fair pricing and did a good job with every step of the process. Highly recommend!

AFS did a great job repairing my 2 1/2 year old driveway. Due to poor compaction during construction my driveway had several voids underneath the driveway. The driveway sank in places and was badly cracked. Josh and Jeremy from AFS did great work. I counted 47 injection sites where they injected high density foam to fill the voids and lift the driveway. They worked the cracks with a 4 inch diamond blade and sealed every single crack afterwards. They left the work site clean. Bret was my AFS representative and was very knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend AFS.
