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.

Tajh inspected my system, was very informative and gave me the instruction manual I wish I'd had during our Michigan flooding in April. Groundworks should have an emergency line as I was frantic when the sump alarm went off and there was no one to talk to.

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.

I rarely write reviews but I just had to rave about Ajeet Ryatt of JES Foundation. I'm experiencing interior cracking and was afraid there was a foundation issue. From the moment he arrived Ajeet was the model of professionalism. He explained the evaluation process and answered all of my questions. Thankfully, my issue was not related to the foundation. Of course I would never wish foundation issues on anyone but in the event you need foundation repair, I highly recommend JES and Ajeet.

Alan and Aldo did an outstanding job with my crawlspace encapsulation installation. From start to finish, they were friendly, polite, professional, and extremely hardworking. Their attention to detail and quality of work truly exceeded expectations. The job site was kept clean throughout the entire process, and all debris was completely removed before they left. It’s clear they take pride in their work and care about customer satisfaction. Very pleased with the entire experience and would highly recommend Alan and Aldo to anyone needing crawlspace work completed. Five-star service all around!

Fantastic service! Luke & Anthony are amazing! They are professional, punctual, knowledgeable, kind & provide great communication. I truly appreciate the time they took in explaining the process, answering all of my questions, & ensuring they could achieve the results I wanted. It's very evident Luke & Anthony take pride in their work! I had a cavern underneath my newly purchased home's driveway from years of gutter outflow draining into unsealed joints causing an uneven surface, collapsing support, rough edges & cracks. Luke & Anthony used their expertise to level the sections, shifting them back into their original position & then smoothed & caulked the joint spaces. I can't believe how good it looks & am even happier that we are no longer at risk of collapse! I highly recommend Groundworks & Luke & Anthony.

I had a great experience with Groundworks in Ontario, CA. Mike, Angel, and Andrew handled everything professionally and kept the process pretty smooth from start to finish. They showed up when they said they would, explained what was going on without overcomplicating it, and got the work done without any issues. Everything was left clean afterward, which I always appreciate. Overall, solid crew and easy to work with. I’d use them again if needed.
