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.

Jeremy and his crew did an outstanding job with regards to lifting and leveling half of my house. They answered any questions I had, and always with a smile. They were kind, professional, and punctual. The quality of work these gentlemen did in below freezing temperatures is beyond what I expected. I am a customer for life. Thank you FRS!!

JES is five star. Our Marina had a waterfront building with foundation issues. JES install push piles. After a year, it was decided the foundation needed more support and JES made it right! The real judge of a service provider like JES is their follow up and continuing customer service. Five star!

My experience with round marks was very good. Well, I had a problem with a huge cavern under my carport and an extended into the house a few feet and I’ll call them. They came out and gave me a price and they came and did the work and I think they were super so my review for them would be very high.

The design specialist was Whit. Very professional, genuinely concerned about the issues, an active listener, and provided pictures to highlight areas of concern. Whit was easy to talk with and there was no pressure to purchase any services. I did select Aquaguard for the job and I expect the work to be of quality.

Had musky smell in house and thought it was from previous owners. They had dogs. Turns out there was excessive moisture in crawl space causing smell. G.W saw that there were no gutters in some spots of house and advised to put gutters in before encapsulation and dehumidifier of crawl space. After about 2months of encapsulation, I didn’t noticed musky smell anymore. It’s a little pricey, but mold under crawl space will eventually cost more. New builds should come with encapsulation if they have a crawl space. Had a maintenance appointment with Marek G a year later. To make sure everything in crawl space was working. Very friendly and knowledgeable. My house is a mess, but they still wear covers over shoes. Very professional. If you have a crawl space and smells, I would give them a call. The initial inspection is free.

After months of hell attempting to work with a local small business to repair the crawlspace in my nearly 50 year old home, AquaGuard demonstrated why quality and integrity matter. Jim was extremely thorough with his inspection and took care to find a financing solution that worked with my budget and still managed to ensure that my home would be healthy and stable. Financing was a breeze. Joseph & Steven did a wonderful job converting my musty, molding, sagging crawlspace into an underground Taj Mahal. It's absolutely beautiful, and as a 6th generation baker, a stable kitchen is a requirement in any home I reside. Every person I had the pleasure of interacting with treated my home and little family with respect and care. Thank you for being the reminder I needed that there truly are good people in the world. AquaGuard has proven why they are clearly the best in the business.

We had JES fix our foundation and mold problems. Our craw space was in bad shape from living with a hill behind us and rain water always running in our direction. We would get a text every morning on what time they would be here. It would be three or four guys everyday doing the work. Joey Donohue, Jose Diaz and Pedro Liontop did a great job. They were very nice and answered all my question even down to checking my dryer vent to make sure in was clear. ( which I’m sure was not part of the job) They cleaned up everything when they were all done and took all trash with them. I highly recommend using JES for your craw space problems. As you can see my craw space looks brand new. Thank you JES And I almost forgot Steve Hurysz for meeting with us and going over all our needs to improve our craw space. Thank you Steve
