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.

Ethan and his crew did great work. Best communication I have ever had out of a construction crew. They were very kind to our kids. The crawl space looks great and Ethan would answer any questions I had for them. Jensen was very knowledgeable and great to work with. Four stars only because the drainage was mis measured for the second time. I would highly recommend but ask for these individuals.

My experience with Matvey exceeded my expectations. From Matthew's very detailed accounting of repairs for our sunken walkway to Eli's brilliant workmanship of making things perfect, we are so pleased with the end result. Matthew was very patient as I asked questions regarding the repairs and was very informative on the process. Eli took time to make sure that everything was done to perfection and he did a great job of cleaning up afterward. Thank you so much!

Just had a water leak in my basement addressed by Groundworks. I first met with Joe who examined the basement inside and out and not only recommended a solution but also told me why this was best compared to other options. He also explained why the problem existed and how the proposed solution would resolve the problem. Lucio (the foreman) and his team of Brandon and Levi, came out about a week later to start work. Lucio met with me each morning to tell me what they would be doing. The team thoroughly taped off the work areas, worked effectively and efficiently on this four day job and cleaned up after themselves before leaving every day with Lucio summarizing what had been accomplished that day. I have been left feeling that the problem has be resolved with the lifetime warranty adding to that confidence. Everyone I met was friendly, polite and professional. I highly recommend my Groundworks team.

We have had a wet basement since we moved into our new built house 12 years ago. The last rain storm produced approximately 25 gallons of water sucked up by my wet/dry vac. We called Foundation Recovery and luckily were put in contact with Michael Drebes who took care of us with a complete waterproof System. We had Ricky and crew working on the system install and they did a fantastic job of getting it done. Last night we had our first heavy rain and our basement is dry as a bone for the first time in 12 years. A big THANK YOU to Foundation Recovery for taking such good care of our situation. No more worries & Let it rain

I recently had foundation work completed by Mount Valley Foundation at my property, and I could not be more impressed with the results. From start to finish, the team, Jarrod, Mason, and Kincade demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail. They thoroughly inspected the issue, clearly explained the underlying problems, and offered a practical plan that fit both my needs and budget. The three man crew arrived on time each day, worked efficiently, and kept the work area clean and safe. They communicated progress throughout the project, which gave me a lot of confidence in the process. Once the work was complete, they walked me through everything they had done and made sure all my questions were answered. The quality of the repair is outstanding—my home feels more stable, the cracks have been addressed, and I have peace of mind knowing the foundation is solid for the long term. It’s rare to find a company like Mount Valley Foundation that combines skill, honesty, and great customer service, but this team truly delivered on all fronts. I highly recommend Mount Valley Foundation to anyone needing reliable, high‑quality foundation repair work.

The Groundworks folks (formerly Bay Area Underpinning) applied their foundation-underpinning technology and expertise to extend to bedrock, level, square up the foundation for an extensive house remodel. I was most impressed by the young man onsite supervisor, Josh who answered all my work done, how and why questions. I wish this info was provided up front by the estimator. (My design-build remodel contractor referred this company).
