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.

Have worked with Foundation Recovery Systems several times over the past several years, both with my own home and with my client’s homes (Realtor profession), and the service and communication has consistently been top notch. My most recent rep, Grant Butler, is easy to talk to, answers all my many questions with great patience and provides dependable customer service. I will continue to recommend/refer to Grant and FRS for anyone needing foundation work options.

FRS did a lot of work in our basement. Nathan was great to work with and very professional. They put in a drain system under our foundation (along our entire front perimeter of the house) that leads to a new sump pump. The crew was great and very respectful to our home. Highly recommend.

I had Brian Cox from FRS come out and give me an estimate for a basement water solution. Brian was friendly, thorough, professional, and honest in his assessment. He provided multiple options, explained issues with clarity, and discussed various payment options and potential discounts. All in all it was a great experience that I would highly recommend for anyone in need a thorough solution plan.

We were experiencing unstable support in our crawlspace resulting in excessive vibration when walking across the floor and started seeing sinking in our living room floor! The home was built in 1948 and issues can be expected over time! We hired Groundworks to conduct their crawlspace services under our home March 10th. Two steel beam runs were installed with their jack system. The floor was stabilized and leveled where the beams were installed, however we noticed the living room floor still showed significant sagging and had a bouncing feel when you would jump. We called the Groundworks Inspector, Ross Feezor back out to investigate. He discovered we had a broken floor joist in the problem area. We had that repair work performed by an outside contractor. The Groundworks team was sent back out April 29th and shifted a section of the original beam runs positioning it under the center of our living room floor at no extra charge to us because it was determined the beam should have been under the living room the first time but the broken floor joist prevented the first team from accomplishing that.. The team was headed up by Dustin, sorry did not get his last name or his two-man team assisting him. They accomplished the job in less than 3-hours and we are very happy now with the results. Good job Groundworks!

We really appreciated the company’s communication with us. Mr. Barnett was extremely friendly and able to assess our situation immediately. We were able to ask him to help with changing out our shower head, too, and he got that done quickly. The only thing we could want more is that he would just happen to have the parts on his truck, and therefore be able to finish the leaky sink today (Friday) instead of having to return Monday to finish. We would recommend these folks, based on our limited experience with them.

Each of the workmen worked hard and was helpful and cheerful. They each did a great job and answered all questions. Ryan and Bryan did a bang-up job lifting and repairing the steps. Curtis, Jordan and Chris went the extra mile in solidifying the foundation and dealing with the unexpected in the basement, Jabaree, Garrett, and Danny did the waterproofing work, installed the dehumidifier and finished with the final concrete work. Hollis, my project manager, was available whenever I needed an answer, My Thanks to each of them for their workmanship.

Trey Smedley was great, thorough and honest with his inspection of my home. I have an older mobile home. After finding the extent of the damage I won't be repairing it. The damage was too extensive. I will be working on a new home. I am thankful that he had photos to show what he was seeing under my floor so I could make an informed decision. Thank you Trey Regards Linda Blanton
