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.

The crew from moberly that spent the past couple of days out at my house were absolutely 💯. Big thanks to Lee Johnson, camryn, and Ayden. They came in and went out of the way to prep what I wasn't able to and wasted no time. Kept me and the wife well informed every step of the way, and left the place looking terrific for the amount of work they put in.

Just had Joseph, Dan, Houston, Greg, and Dalin complete a full encapsulation of our crawlspace. They were amazing completing all of the work in just two days and let us informed of what was going on the entire time. Alpha Foundations as a whole including our estimator Cody were great, but the crew was amazing. If you’re in the Tampa area ask for Joseph and his crew to be your installers!

I had a very positive experience working with Prince Miles and Frank Gozman from Groundworks. They explained everything very clearly, arrived on time and finished the same afternoon. They repaired 3 crumbling spots on my foundation and leveled up the garage slab. The price seemed reasonable and the work looks good. Recommended!

The crew from groundworks Wichita ks. Chase, Richard, Brett, and James have done an exceptional job on our foundation repair. As far as we concerned they went above and beyond our expectations. The gaps we had in our ceiling and wall are completely closed up. Our inspector Brent explained what they would be doing and how it would be done but as far as we are concerned the crew went WAY beyond. Great people and hard workers. Thank yall very much. Sincerely Frank and Kathy Boyer. Fredonia ks.

We had a very informative inspector that was able to break down our situation into terms we could understand. Codi was very kind and looked out for what was best for our family, and not the bottom dollar. We appreciate him coming out and will be calling him for any future foundation needs. If your looking for a Certified Field Inspector Codi Martin is your man!

I contracted with Groundworks to demo and replace the entire foundation for my home (built in the 1930s) in Petaluma, CA. The foundation was original to the home and falling apart. This job was competitively and transparently priced by the inspector/Estimator Adam Mier, who was referred to me by a professional colleague. I did obtain other bids, but Adam was the only estimator that addressed all of my concerns and factored permitting and engineering fees into the bid upfront. Once work began, the foremen on the jobs (Tyler, Nestor) were professional and excellent communicators, and kept the job site clean and organized. With the help of Jose and Erick, they finished ahead of schedule and were able to save me costs. They worked around a number of issues on the jobsite, including access challenges and bad winter weather. I would trust this company with your foundation and concrete projects over the competition, especially projects like mine (that are extensive and potentially expensive) because they have a competent team of professionals working for them.
