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.

IBA has been here three times and I’ve been satisfied each time. Jake ******** and Joe ********* did the inspection for the braces which were installed a year ago. They thoroughly checked every area of the basement, tightened bolts, etc. and explained in detail what they were doing, what they were looking for. They noticed my sump pump should be replaced soon, suggested a better system. I agreed and a date was scheduled for later that week for installation Brandon, Anthony, and Shane came for the installation of a state of the art sump pump system. They prepared the area, installed, cleaned up when done. They explained exactly what they were doing for each step. Jake had called to set up the inspection appt for him and Joe. It was easy to schedule. I was informed when they were on their way. Brandon let me know when he, Anthony, and Shane were on their way I appreciate how well the company and employees communicate for scheduling and while they are doing their work. The foundation and basement have been inspected by professionals and problems have been addressed and solved. The work that’s been done and the cost involved is so worth the peace of mind I have. Thank you Innovative Basement Authority and your skilled employees! I definitely would recommend IBA! Cindy ****

Travis Drake came by to look at my foundation. He walked me through every step of the process and how he was determining if there was an issue. He made sure I understood what was happening. He was very upfront that the foundation issues weren’t a major problem but something to watch and see if it gets worse. I appreciate the openness and he wasn’t pushy about trying to sell me on unnecessary work. Thanks Travis!
