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.

Mike came to carry out the annual inspection of our house to ensure no settlement had occurred since JES had fixed our foundation issues a few years ago. He explained everything very clearly and made sure I could see for myself how the laser showed perfect alignment still. He was very thorough and most personable. I look forward to seeing him again next year.

Our initial sidewalk lifting & repair was was not what we expected, however the company sent another crew that did an exceptional job! They were professional, knowledgeable and went above & beyond in their effort to improve the initial repair. The completed job was very good and we appreciate the company standing by their claim to meet customer expectations. The workers Patrick & Raphael not only did an outstanding job, they were also meticulous in the clean-up. They truly exhibit a positive customer service attitude for which we were very grateful!

We had a great experience working with Shayan from Groundwork's. He was incredibly thorough and detailed throughout the entire process. From the very beginning, he took the time to carefully assess everything and made sure no detail was overlooked. His knowledge really stood out — he clearly understands his field and was able to explain everything in a way that was easy to follow and understand. What we appreciated most was how clearly he walked us through each step. He answered all of our questions patiently and made sure we felt confident and informed before moving forward. On top of that, he was very friendly and professional, which made the experience comfortable and stress-free. Shayan was also punctual and respectful of our time, arriving exactly when scheduled and staying organized throughout the visit. Overall, we are extremely satisfied with the service and would absolutely recommend Shayan and the Groundwork's team to anyone looking for knowledgeable, detailed, and reliable service.

Ishan from Groundworks was outstanding to work with. He was professional friendly, and communicated everything clearly throughout the visit. He completed a proactive service check on our sump system and basement liners, thoroughly tested all water ports, flood-tested the sump, and replaced an aging battery before it became a problem. He also found that our current dehumidifier had an issue getting rid of moisture which was causing our mold problem, explaining how the downtime had affected basement humidity and addressing it with a replacement. Everything was handled efficiently and transparently. Highly recommend Ishan and Groundworks.

Look no further—hire Alpha Foundations! After a few no-shows for other quotes and one company leaving us feeling stressed/scared, Alpha stepped in and saved the day! From their presentation/quote to the installation, we were thoroughly impressed every step of the way. We now have the peace of mind of knowing our house isn't going to collapse. Thank you, Alpha!

I hired Baker's Waterproofing when a recent plumber found a leak possibly in my foundation and recommended them to me. Baker's initial inspection uncovered that my foundation was built of cinderblocks and was leaking water from the hill behind my home as well as groundwater from below. They scheduled the work and sent out Victor and Miguel to complete a full waterproofing, French drain, pump installation and backup system. From start to finish of this project with Baker's Waterproofing, every person I spoke to was extremely professional, everything was explained clearly and concisely, and pricing was not only competitive, but extremely reasonable for the quality and quantity of work completed. Special thanks to the incredibly hardworking, polite, and professional Victor and Miguel. I highly recommend asking for them by name to ensure your work is done quickly but completely.

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.

I'm very pleased with the work done at my home. Lee, Camryn, & Joshua did a great job with our project. They made sure I got the repairs I expected. They cleaned up my yard and basement. They cared about about the quality of their work and did the little extras. This FRS crew was one of the best to work on our home.
