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.

Aquaguard waterproofed my basement efficiently and professionally. I can't say enough good things about this company. Blake, the sales representative for this project, demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise. His extensive knowledge was particularly impressive. Kornbread, serving as the project manager, along with his team members -Wheeler and Jojo – demonstrated exceptional professionalism throughout the project. The team was punctual, maintained clear communication, respected the premises, provided thorough explanations at each stage of the process, and consistently delivered high-quality results. Kornbread possesses extensive knowledge and a high-level of expertise on basement waterproofing. He also showed me photos of my basement to highlight pre-existing conditions, and he provided photo updates as work progressed. Kornbread, Wheeler, and Jojo installed an interior drainage system and vapor barrier to ensure the basement remained dry. Their integrity was evident in all aspects of their work. The team ensured the worksite was clean throughout and upon completion, leaving behind workmanship of the highest standard. I highly recommend this company.

Our crew – Uber, Jorge, Marco and Fernando – who serviced our house was professional and extremely hardworking. The foundation work was more complicated and difficult due to terrain and landscape. They communicated well, set expectations and worked late each day to complete the job. Thank you AFS.

Louis, Gerson, and Carlos were on time and got right to work on our crawl space. They were professional and friendly. They were done earlier than they said, and the work was perfect. They even found an issue we need to call a plumber about. Great team!! We are happy we went with this company for sure. Well worth the money.

The team I worked with at BAU was great. I hired them to repair some minor vertical and horizontal foundation cracks that were found in a recent general home inspection. Everyone who came out was upbeat, professional, punctual, thorough, and highly detailed. Hunter came out first to check the entire foundation and give a free estimate. They then split the work up into two dates, and each crew was great. Michael and James came out first for the initial round, and then Alexander and Gabe came out to wrap up the last few areas. The guys were always on time, which is greatly appreciated. Both repair teams also did their own additional checks of the surrounding areas, also greatly appreciated. They were also able to provide before and after pictures, and were respectful of the property.

I have some minor cracks around my home I wanted a professional opinion on. The Groundwork’s team and Rory W. were great! He worked around the times I was available. Then he came out and did an inspection on my home free of charge. He explained all the technical inspections he was doing and made sure I understood everything. I can’t recommend this company enough. Super helpful and professional.

We called Groundworks to have them look at the leaking basement floor. A man named Kyle came a week later to give an estimate, gave us a fair price and gave us a date for the following week. We needed drains put in as well as two sump pumps installed. A week later Ricky and Logan came. They set everything up, covered everything in the basement in plastic for protection. They proceeded to work hard, doing a lot the first day. Then came back with a third man named Cameron on the second day and worked all day, even staying a little later to finish. All the gentlemen that came were professional and friendly. The final product looks great. Once the rain commences we'll see the system in action. Overall, Groundworks did a fantastic job and I highly recommend them. Also, they guarantee their work.

We had a wonderful experience with JES. We started noticing some cracks in our walls/floors and called for a consultation. Brian was extremely thorough and explained everything that would be necessary to get things fixed. He detailed all the options for payment/financing (since foundation work is not cheap!) and helped ease our fears a little bit about completely breaking our budget. JES took care of getting all permits for us. The true reason for 5 stars, however, is Santos and his crew. They were INCREDIBLE. They went above and beyond to make sure the work they did was done well. The whole team was incredibly friendly and very communicative throughout the process. There were a couple a snags at the beginning that could have been problematic, but Santos and his crew ensured that everything ran smoothly. The one thing that really stood out to us – Santos changed the original plan to make it more appealing, even though it was a little harder and more work for him. He said "if it were my house, I would want it to look nice, not the easiest solution." Highly, highly recommend if you need any foundation repair!
