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.

I recently needed my crawlspace paper wrapped and a foundation wall elevated about 2in. Right after sending a yelp message I received a quick response with times to have someone come out, and once they did come out it was followed by an awesome visualization of the work they could get done. While, understandably because of demand, it did take about a month or so for Tarheel to be able to work on the project (I was noted of this in preparation). Once they were able to come out, they did so quite quickly and with very high standard. The crawlspace work was very well sealed and contained, and the foundation work was well explained and the people involved in the whole project did a fantastic job. So much so that I would like to give a special thanks to Gus J., Anthony M., Jimmy M. and Felipe L. for the work they had done, I really appreciate the help! Highly recommended company!

Mark Robichaud was the most knowledge, trustworthy, and honest foundation expert I’ve ever met. He very clearly communicated issues with my crawlspace in a straightforward but non-overwhelming way. He spent an incredible amount of time inspecting, discussing and educating me on the issues and then prepared very clear, easy to understand estimates for each phase of the overall project. I feel much more educated from our meeting and highly recommend him! Thank you!

Wanted to say how great Aaron Jernigan was in working with us on our repair situation. Last Thursday Aaron and Matt Hahn encapsulated a second area of our basement that had remained unfinished for quite some time. They were professional, courteous and did a super job. Can’t commend these two enough! Many thanks Bill & Sharon Jolliffe

I used the services twice. The first time was to stabilize 3 sides of the house. The second time was to stabilize the front of the house. The sales and service persons are professional and take time to listen to me. The first time there were some damages to the irragation and they came back to fix it. The second time was even better (Matthew K, Fernado A, Mike L, David L and Elyas V, Five stars from me). Everything went smooth. The crews were efficient and friendly. Both projects were completed as estimated. Even the price is higher than other companies but the technology and materials are different. For long term, I think I made a right decision to use GW.

I learned that 3 rooms were lower than the rest of the house and that Mount Valley had the fix! Austin and Michael promptly arrived and injected the polymer through the flooring into the ground. I found the pair to be quite knowledgeable and personable. They answered every question I had leaving me feeling very informed for the next house I buy. They were respectful of my home regarding routing their hose into my home and leaving the area as clean as possible afterwards. I'm very satisfied with Mount Valley's approach to foundation fixed.

When I reached out due to my basement leaking water everywhere, I was assigned Jason Sheppard as my representative to do my free estimate. He was thorough and made sure that he didn't miss anything. I liked the way he explained everything to me to make sure that I understood what the company would be doing when I received my appointment for installation. Now, I'm so ready for installation. I do recommend him for a person who knows how to reach the customers with knowledge and understanding.
