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 Alpha Foundations team of Jake, Charles, and Alberto did a terrific job of not just arresting the slant of our house, but making it more level. Very professional, skilled, and courteous. Jake, the foreman, made sure we were informed about the process the entire time, and answered all our questions. Great work, minimally invasive, and cleaned everything up. We couldn't be happier!

Chance Bender, Donovan Birks, and Chaastin Antwine did an outstanding job repairing the sagging floor under my house. Their work on the joists was done professionally and with great attention to detail. You can really tell they take pride in what they do. They showed up ready to work, stayed efficient throughout the job, and made sure everything was solid and secure before finishing. The difference is noticeable right away—the floor feels strong and level again. I truly appreciate the quality of their work and their professionalism. These guys definitely deserve recognition. Highly recommend them to anyone needing this kind of work done. Aslp, Rick Holt did an excellent job handling my annual maintenance and inspection. He was very thorough, taking the time to carefully check everything and make sure nothing was overlooked. He explained what he was doing along the way and pointed out anything that might need attention in the future, which I really appreciated. It’s clear he takes pride in his work and wants to make sure everything is safe and running properly. Professional, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented—Rick did a great job, and I’d definitely recommend him to anyone needing maintenance or an inspection!

I want to mention all the workers Tyler, Eric, Juan, Danny and Dante were all fantastic and did exceptional work. There attention to detail under my house was fantastic. I now have a dry crawl space. I actually went underneath to see their work and it was the first time in years I haven't gotten wet. They took the time to make sure everything was done correctly and on time. I would definitely hire them again. Job well done!

Colin spent 90 minutes inspecting a prospective house that was in a flood zone we were going to purchase. He explained in detail, using several "tools" to present strong evidence the issues he found and how Groundworks would rectify the problems and in a very quick turnaround presented us with an estimate, which we thought was very reasonably priced as we had gotten other estimates that were almost double. They managed the permitting process through the town, also, which took a lot of work off my shoulders.The Groundworks administrative team (scheduling, engineers, permitting) was very responsive to my emails and phone calls. Ultimately, we did not purchase the house, but I would not hesitate for one second to call them in for my current home or any future homes with basement or foundation issues. Every individual I connected with at Groundworks was responsive, knowledgeable and professional.

Today, Steven came out to meet with me at my house. He was on time concerned about where he would park his car, and when he came into the house, he even took his shoes off at the door. I am very very pleased and impressed by his patience and knowledge, and took so much time sitting with me, explaining everything in detail and going over everything with me in very much detail it’s very comforting to know that you can put full. Trust into Steven. I was so worried and stressed out about my house but I so appreciate him being understanding and really being patient with me. Excellent Excellent service!

I had a foundation repair 2 years ago. I had an annual follow up with Matthew Workman and he did an excellent job reviewing the home and measuring throughout the house to evaluate for any new movement to the floor and foundation and he was very knowledgeable.
