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.

Jesus and Jose did an exceptional job arriving in time, explaining the process and working efficiently to get the job done in a relatively short period of time! The garage floor was lifted @ 3 inches and the front porch slab was lifted to drain away from the house. The work looks great!

David and Diego did such an amazing job filling in some voids underneath my driveway. I can’t recommend them enough. They were prompt, professional, efficient. The price was much cheaper than I was expecting and a fraction of the 10,000 it would take to repour my driveway.

I had a great experience working with Emmett W. as my service tech from AFS. From the moment he arrived, he was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly took pride in his work. He took the time to thoroughly explain everything that needed to be done, answered all of my questions without rushing, and made sure I felt confident in the process. He approached the job with care and precision, and it was obvious he genuinely cares about doing things the right way. As for AFS, the company as a whole exceeded my expectations. They have always come to the rescue when my home was experiencing any issues. If you’re considering foundation or crawl space work, I highly recommend AFS—and if you’re lucky enough to get Emmett as your technician, you’ll be in great hands.

When everything goes right, it’s easy to get 5/5 stars. But the place really proves itself when things start rocky. I would give 6 stars specifically to the management team, if I could. We just finished the job of leveling and resealing our concrete pool deck. The result is even better than I dared to imagine. NICK and his crew did an outstanding job and cared for every detail. Extremely happy with our pick and based on the interaction so far I KNOW that if something comes up down the line, they will not let me down. Engage with confidence, whatever they charge, they are worth it.
