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.

I contacted AFS to assess my home after encountering water damage in multiple areas. Devin Kimbrough was assigned to me. Devin was professional from start to finish, communicated well, and thoroughly educated me on the issues that were occurring at my home. He identified where water was entering the home, identified various cracks and, explained how they likely occurred. Devin is an SME in what he does and I would highly recommend. Thanks for everything, Devin!

Our experience with IBA was fantastic from beginning to end. We discovered some pretty bad foundation damage in our garage and IBA had someone out the next day. Michael Kurr was our estimator – he was friendly, knowledgeable, and really took the time to explain what was happening and what could be done. When the team showed up 6 weeks later, they couldn’t have been kinder and more helpful. Nick Swanson and Devon Alexander were our main team, and they always stopped to take the time and explain everything to us in a patient manner, despite fighting constant flooding in our dig. I was very impressed with how they were able to execute the plan exactly as stated, despite multiple setbacks from Mother Nature. Very impressed with these guys. I really hope I never need them again, but if I do, I know exactly who to call 🙂

Absolutely amazing transformation of our sunken slabs of sidewalk and steps! Everything has been perfectly leveled and Danila is a master at his craft. Valeri also worked efficiently and carefully through the whole process. We had a very complex section of broken concrete steps, landing and walkway that was a continuous pour up against the side of our garage. They were able to effortlessly level a 3 foot thick landing section of concrete that was 5 feet wide with steps down to an 18 inch thick connected walkway that was also 5 feet wide and 6 feet long. Truly incredible! Also, everyone connected to the company were very professional and very meticulous, from the receptionist to the estimator to the workers and communication was excellent through the whole process. We could not be happier with our results and they are highly, highly recommended!

Alexander Norris of Foundation Recovery Systems was our certified tech. He came on 7 May. he was prompt, courteous and professional. He listened to all my concerns and the went to work. He inspected every space, crawled in the crawl space and took at least two hours assessing everything. He did not rush at all he took the time to really investigate everything. Afterwords he sat down and explained in clear simple terms what he found. He explained the difference options available and was very honest and professional on all to include cost et.. I would use this guy again and I recommend him. thanks Rick
