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.

Excellent experience with Alpha Foundations. Hired them to level a cracked driveway slab and address additional crack and other areas of potential future trouble. It was more than a repair and included injections to level one slab, and fill and reinforce areas below to prevent recurrence. Initial visit was thorough and got great explanation of scope of work and process. The day of the actual work — George and James — they were super professional, thorough and did an amazing job! Very pleased with the experience. It was not inexpensive but a great value that saved us from pouring new slabs. Highly recommend.

OUTSTANDING JOB, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Aaron Hudson and Dray Fields, were the crew working our home project and they did an excellent job! We couldn’t be happier with the work and to finally get our concrete front porch insulated with foam underneath to protect from the little critter who had dug it over the past couple of years. They were prompt, professional, highly skilled, and knowledgeable about the entire process. They both paid close attention to detail, and worked at a smooth/quick pace. They obviously had a system they employed and diligently worked through the process greatly to our total satisfaction. Despite us having some scheduling setbacks early on, Aaron made contact, and helped us get rescheduled and planned for a time that worked best for us. He was very thorough in explaining the process for our specific project, which also gave us the opportunity to send him photos of some areas that needed special attention and some concrete repair. That exchange can always help to ensure they are fully prepared with a gameplan ready once they show on the scheduled date. I was grateful to have had such a top notch crew as theirs that could arrive at our agreed upon time, fully prepared to work smoothly and confidently as a team to project completion. I’d put either one of these two up against the vast majority of workers I come across these days, fully deserving of any promotion they may be considered for. Our sincere gratitude to Aaron, Dray, and the Groundworks team for working with us, managing the details, and the. knocking it out- protecting our foundation from any further damage and erosion! Thank you all!

From the first inspection and estimate, through my numerous questions regarding the wall anchor installation and foundation stability, and through project completion, Baker’s provided the most outstanding and professional service I’ve received in any home project I have had undertaken. Brad did a brilliant job offering initial advice concerning repair options and financing. Afterward, Charlie and his team did outstanding work in installation, respecting our property while improving it immensely. Their patience, attention to detail, and courtesy is unparalleled in my experience.

Angel M. And his team were great. They arrived on time, were knowledgeable and efficient. Communication on the plan, many updates throughout and actually finished ahead of schedule. Also, Rocco was always available to answer any questions as the came up through the planning phase and during work. Our foundation is now secure and we enjoyed working with Groundworks. We had the push piers with leveling completed and it was a pleasure having these guys do the job! Thank you Angel, Rocco, & crew!

I am very pleased with the service of Mount Valley foundations. My service men who are: William Cheek, Rashad Hayward and Aveion Jacobs did an excellent job. When they arrived here exactly on the time that they said they were going to be here I felt confident this was going to be a good experience. Mr. Cheek communicated with me throughout the whole process. After about 4 hours they were completed. He came inside my house and made sure everything was level as well as cleaned up their mess outside. He was very courteous and answered any questions that I had. If I have any other problems again, I will call Mount valley foundations.

Great experience all around. We had a pipe break in our crawlspace and we needed it fixed as soon as possible. Groundworks was amazing. Start to finish. Parker came out fast and had a bid on the spot. Sandra got us on the schedule super fast, and the crew they sent out, Blake, Bwes, and Duncan got my crawlspace fixed in record time. It was amazing. Highly recommend.
