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.

This is a follow up to my prior review of Alpha Foundations. After reading my initial review, Alex (The General Manager) conctacted me to chat about my experience. I left the conversation with a better understanding of the initial inspection process and thoroughly impressed with the overall customer service of everyone I came into contact with at Alpha. From the sales team, field techs and management, my customer service experience was top notch. It's obvious to me that customer service and satisfaction is at the top of their priority list and it resonates througout the organization. Although I experienced a very minor issue with the initial diagnosis of the problems my property was having, I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again in the future and would recommend them to friends and family.

I contacted Groundworks after the first company I contacted ghosted me after they said my problem was too complicated for them. The gentleman who showed up was professional and braced me for the sticker shock at the price and handled my questions. The company stayed in touch, offered me sales, and when I was ready, got everything moving forward quickly. They handled everything, got my house back straight, with professionalism and respect- stopping their generator whenever I came around to check. Thankfully they offer financing, we’re so good about communicating and making sure I was happy with the work. I tried at least 5 other companies and Groundworks was the best- not the cheapest- but the most communicative and organized. Manuel and and Emil were both informed and patient with the process as it took longer than planned. I’m grateful to have had their help with my sinking house.

Andy Hess has been a pleasure working with so far. He has been upfront in what he believes he thinks should be done, and was willing to go into the crawlspace multiple times to confirm the most cost effective way of fixing it up.

Randy was incredibly knowledgable, and took the time to assess our concerns with our foundation issues. Ultimately, he was able to put our concerns to rest, and explained the items that needed to be addressed, even those that were not in Grounworks purview. Would highly reccomend if you are concerned about your foundation/basement.

Lee came and inspected everything and made sure I understood what he was doing and why. It turned out that i had no leak and it was the water supply to my fridge that was spraying the ceiling which in turn was dropping water onto my floor. He already had the saw to cut the ceiling but because he found that where the water was coming from BEFORE he cut my ceiling, he did not need to because it would have been no use to do that. Prevented me from doing more work not to mention more expenses to patch the hole which didnt need to be there on the first place. Highly recommend them!

My home is unusualy long, large and awkwardly positioned on a steep slope. I worried for years it was too big of a task to repair thoroughly and would be far too expensive. I had quotes from various experts and never felt confident with any of their solutions. But yesterday I met Dan with Ohio Basement Authority and I have to say: MY OPINION CHANGED QUICKLY. I will never be able to thank @Dan Lauterbur enough for our home evaluation. He worked with precision and great attention to detail, addressing every nagging question, and concern I threw at him with a plethora of knowledge and expertise. His passion for construction and foundation repair was evident. Literally every minute was a fountain of knowledge; he did not rush and spent nearly 4 hours with me to complete our home evaluation, sketch and entire contract. Bringing over 25 years of experience as a general contractor, I can rest easy knowing Dan left no stone unturned during the process. Very excited to continue working with Dan as our Project Manager over the next three months and see our dreams come to fruition!!! I truly do not believe there is another foundation company out there that will have the man power for this monster of a project (32 push peirs, driveway deck, floors and more); all-the-while still making the process stress-free, smooth and affordable. Thank you @Dan Lauterbur!!! Thank you @Ohio Basement Authority!!! Best regards, Karl Rosenberg
