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.

Kevin Estes came out to the house for a crack in the foundation , and did an excellent job in advising me on what steps to take. While there he also pointed out a few things the home inspector missed while doing his inspection. Kevin did a great job and I would definitely refer him to anyone need assistance.

AFS – Bryan Zakutansky Bryan serviced my under house “humidifier” Saturday 2/7. We discussed the amount of relatively large tree limbs in my front yard & I said my tree co. couldn’t come until 2/17 & they were too large & heavy for me to drag to the curb. Bryan said he had a chain saw in his truck & after his work appts. he would cut them up & help me drag them to the curb. He did! His kindness, consideration, & compassion make him a valuable employee for AFS, & those qualities are things we all should strive to embody. I will request him for service going forward & hope AFS knows what a great person they have in their employ. Thank you! Thank you! Bryan. Duncan Davis

5 star review but the Only issue is that 2 of the guys that were here working was using real bad language thankfully my children weren't around but they were yelling and using it across my yard at each other so my neighbors with small kids most likely heard them . They also left nail gun nails all in my driveway which could of been bad if myself or someone else ran them over. They left some trash throughout my carport.

We are so pleased with the work Groundworks did for us. Our job was completed in two phases. We were especially pleased with the 2nd crew who came in to complete the work on Christmas Eve! A Great big THANK YOU to Rosalino, Esteban, Juan and Oscar! These guys were focused and committed to doing a super professional job in spite of the fact that it was Christmas Eve! Our salesman, Zach Milligan was very knowledgable and never tired of our endless questions! We felt valued as a customer and that our job mattered to them. We highly recommend Groundworks.

Jason R and Jordan B. did a great job today. They were very thorough and offered to extend my warranty for five years from today since I had problems with their quality of work originally. I did not expect that, but that really made a difference plus them getting the job done correctly today. These guys were excellent and did an amazing job with lifting & leveling, a professional looking saw-cut to prep and then filll the cracks.

Mountain Valley sent Christian Rudd, Tyler Moreland and Cody Britton to do a 3 day job of supporting and leveling my home. They were prompt, respectful and kept me updated during the process everyday, showing me pictures at the completion. They were wonderful, my house feels so much more stable when walking from one end to the other.

Had a full inspection done with Steven regarding what me and my father thought was a foundation issue. Steven inspected the entire foundation and we even got to see the inside of our crawl space for the first time with him. Not only that, thanks to one of Steven’s fancy leveling tools, we got to see that the leveling of our bedrooms are about an inch to an inch and a half off. Long story short, after Steven’s inspection, he sent the photos to his engineers and it turned out that our “issue” all along was actually just added on concrete acting as a sort of curb meant to keep water away as he was able to feel the footing where he probed the soil (in front of said curb.) Steven did a very great job and was super friendly and honest. We may consider having our crawl space encapsulated in the future. Thank you Steven.

I really really appreciate my technician, Chad Edwards, that came out and inspected my property. He was very knowledgeable and explained everything that would need to be done. He was very personable and I felt as though he did have my best interests at heart. He also did not mind my three dogs bothering him in the meantime. While I am not sure whether or not I will be moving forward with him. I do appreciate what was done. Thank you so much for your assistance!
