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.

Working with Justin to set up an appointment was very professional. We had a little hiccup but Justin and Ohio Basement Authority corrected things and made it right. That is greatly appreciated. OBA sent out a great crew of Tyler and Earl! Very professional and personable. Walked me through everything they were going to do and made suggestions along the way. They did an amazing job with the concrete lifting as well as cleaning up afterwards. After working with Justin, Tyler and Earl, I will be employing them for later projects. Thanks, OBA!

David, Bobby and Jesus were great. These gentlemen were on time and extremely friendly. They explained every step of the process just showing how knowledgeable they were. They even cleaned up behind themselves besides the obvious signs of digging you can’t tell anything was done. I appreciate their attention to detail and them teaching me something new. Thanks guys. If I ever need work again only send them.

We had an excellent experience with Ohio Basement Authority, and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome! Cory Lee, our sales representative, went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled to our satisfaction. He even came on-site to personally remove tile, showcasing his dedication and attention to detail. The entire team was punctual, professional, and highly skilled. Our foundation had dropped 1 1/2 inches in some areas, causing significant structural issues. However, Ohio Basement Authority tackled the problem with expertise by drilling 21 steel support beams down to bedrock and successfully lifting the foundation back into place. What truly impressed me was their efficiency—they completed the entire project in just three days! The results exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend Ohio Basement Authority to anyone in need of foundation repair. Thank you for an outstanding job!
