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.

We just had our basement water proofed and sump pump installed. The experience with Foundation Recovery was top notch from beginning to end. The crew they sent out, Brady, Davon, Dave, Nate and Billy, were very polite and respectful. Their work ethic and knowledge of the work to be done was outstanding. Brady explained everything from start to finish in way that was very understandable. Highly recommend this company and crew.

AFS was absolutely amazing from start to finish. My crawlspace was in such bad shape. Eric came out for an estimate super quickly and I was so impressed by his professionalism and expertise that I decided to hire them on the spot. And I'm so glad I did. Within a week, Evan and his awesome crew came out and transformed my tight, smelly, humid crawlspace into a clean environment that I am sure will leave me and my family feeling physically better. I mean, it was so bad that the smell was getting into the house. I am so incredibly pleased that I hired these guys. Just such a great experience from start to finish. Thank you all so much 🙏

Josh and his helper put the foam under our garage and sunroom floor to keep it from settling any more. Josh was very good at explaining what they were going to do and answering questions. I feel like they did a good job. I guess we will know more in a year when Dakota comes back to see how things look. John Luthi

I've had Matvey/Groundworks come out twice and they did not charge us for their time. First time was for something more aesthetic related to flooring and then we called them again for foundation/concrete assessment. Gardner was detail oriented, easy to communicate with, prompt and did not push any product in his presentation of scope/findings/solution. Big fan! Highly recommend.

Robert and his team started earlier than expected which is always good. They put piers under my foundation and drywall cracks closed up and doors latched without lifting them instantly. They cleaned up and repaired concrete they had to get under and were gone in a few days. I would suggest them. I have a few in process pics other than the seed, straw and some newer concrete you’d never know they were there.

Groundwork’s just completed repair on our sunken walkway and cracked driveway. We have lived in our house 27 years and our aggregate walkway sunk down from our driveway approximately 3 inches. It was becoming dangerous and a serious tripping hazard. They came out to look at it, scheduled us in, and were able to complete our repairs a week earlier than planned. They showed up on time and completed the work in the time they estimated. The workers were respectful and professional. The repair work was better than we expected. It was completely cleaned up, swept clean and perfect. We highly recommend Groundworks and will call them again for any future repairs.
