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.

BAU did a great job on my ADU that had a serious moisture problem that was causing the building to deteriorate. I couldn't remove the tile without replacing it all at a large expense so they did the whole job in a very cramped crawl space. The guys they sent out were great and finished with everything in one day!!!

Foundation Recovery Systems did a great job with my garage concrete floor, sidewalk, and driveway. Grant B. was a pleasure to work with. He came to my house the next day, observed the issues, listened to my concerns, and provided me with solutions. The price was reasonable and there was zero pressure. Once I said yes, the work was scheduled. Grant stayed in contact leading up to the project date, ensuring all my questions were answered. The team that did the project was very good. They worked swiftly and left my garage as clean as they found it. They were friendly and professional. The whole process was to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Grant and Foundation Recovery Systems!

Brendan O'Hara came out to my home in San Antonio, TX and did an exceptional job in providing a thorough overview of Groundworks service, credentials, reputation, and specifically the concrete leveling service that was needed for my home. He was professional, knowledgeable, and clear in the details of the work that would take place and presented price options for the work that I wanted to get done on my driveway and entryway. Brendan took the time to listen to my concerns as a homeowner and in understanding that this was going to be a huge investment in my home, he was able to offer the best price. I truly appreciated the communication (email & text) the day before my appointment to confirm the date/time still worked for me and also the call before his arrival. The follow up with the date/time to schedule the actual job was immediate and very accommodating to my work schedule. Thank you Brendan! I will provide a follow up to this initial review once the job is completed in late May.

The services provided by Groundworks for the stabilization of our settling house have been outstanding. Stephen Kagin, the field inspector, assessed the situation and proposed a solution, explaining each aspect of the job. Kimberly John and Keeairra Broussard resolved scheduling issues efficiently and flexibly. I was particularly impressed with the project foreman, Tyler Morgan, and his field crew, Luis Bravo and Austin Huarte. They were very professional, knowledgable, hard working, and pleasant to interact with. It is obvious that Tyler and Luis have considerable practical experience, and Austin showed a high level of commitment and dedication to his job duties. They all significantly contributed to making suggestions once it became necessary to adapt the original plan based on observations in the field. They brought back Stephen and a senior member of the company to re-assess the needs and risks of the stabilization effort, resulting in a cost-effective alternative solution. It is this team's experience, professionalism, flexibility, and quality of work that not only gives me confidence that our house is safely stabilized, but also made the experience considerably less stressful than expected.

Jim from Edmond came to my house informed me what my house needed, gave me an estimate, set up the work date, called back twice to check if everything was ok, and see if I had any questions. The Supervisor Dakata called and set up a time and arrived on schedule with his partner. They introduced themselves asked if I had any questions and answered them then my wife came out and they answered her questions. On the second day an additional worker named Jose arrived. I asked to observe certain procedures and they complied with my request and explained it. Everyone was Professional, Polite; and Courteous. It was a pleasure to have met them and to know that there are still fine individuals out there working and are Proud and Happy at what they do. God Bless them all.

DFX did and excellent job. I helped my sister, Rebecca Morris get her sagging floors and foundation repaired on her home. We worked with Bryan Patrick from DFX. Bryan was great to work with and was very knowledgeable about his product and services as well as the repairs that were needed. He answered all our questions, was very punctual and accountable both before, during and after the work was completed. His team did an outstanding job leveling her floors, bracing the support beams and replacing bad floor joist. I would highly recommend DFX to anyone needing repairs on floors and foundations. Bryan and DFX were also the best price. They created drawings, and shared what all would need to be done, they were courteous and did excellent work. I would certainly use Bryan and the DFX team again. I give them 10 stars for making my sister happy. She is 84 years old and didn't have anywhere else to turn and DFX came through. Thank you Bryan and DFX. We really appreciate you. It

This is based on Quote only. We have not had work completed yet, it is scheduled. He did take a long time with us going over everything so we knew exactly what he is planning on doing. He also explained the difference in materials he plans to use with different parts of the job. The services they offered was above what others was offering even though their prices were a little higher.

I had a great experience working with Paul Kelly at JES Foundation. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He took the time to really explain what was going on with my home in a way that actually made sense, and I never felt rushed or pressured into anything. What stood out most was his honesty and attention to detail. He walked me through all my options, answered every question I had, and made sure I felt confident in the decisions being made. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing the job right and taking care of his customers. If you want someone you can trust, I’d highly recommend working with Paul. Five-star experience all around.

We invited Alan McConnell into our home to inspect our foundation and leveling of our floors. He was very professional, thorough, polite and personable. He made us feel very comfortable having a stranger enter our home. He was not your typical sales person! We really appreciated the suggestions and explanations.
