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.

First, met with Matt, the field inspector, who described the process, time involved, and project amount. He was professional and friendly. Then we met the site crew, Samuel and Kevin. Can't say enough about how hard they worked, and the amazing results. They communicated with us several times during the course of the project, answering questions, showing us what they had done, and suggesting we take photos of the project that would soon be buried under dirt, in case we had questions later. They were super friendly and professional, as well. Great job! Steve and Alana, Coupeville WA

Each of the workmen worked hard and was helpful and cheerful. They each did a great job and answered all questions. Ryan and Bryan did a bang-up job lifting and repairing the steps. Curtis, Jordan and Chris went the extra mile in solidifying the foundation and dealing with the unexpected in the basement, Jabaree, Garrett, and Danny did the waterproofing work, installed the dehumidifier and finished with the final concrete work. Hollis, my project manager, was available whenever I needed an answer, My Thanks to each of them for their workmanship.

This year was phase 2 of a foundation stabilization project at my house, with the work done by Alpha Foundations. Sam and Kevin were here today to fill voids and stabilize indoors underneath my tile floors. Both guys were very professional, very courteous and friendly. They explained things so that I could understand what needed to be done and then proceeded to do it efficiently and effectively. And as a bonus, they really liked my dogs! Yesterday, Chris and crew were here to install 9 piers to stabilize my foundation on the outside. The crew again, very professional, very courteous and did the job efficiently and effectively. I very much appreciate that Alpha Foundations will check back each year for the next few years to make sure things are still stable and to determine whether I need a phase 3 to my foundation issues.

I recently hired Ground Works to repair several sunken slabs in my garage caused by poorly compacted soil. From start to finish, the experience was seamless. The two gentlemen who performed the work (Guiles Hall and Jason Lewis) were the highlight of the service—they were professional, courteous, and took the time to explain the process to me so I knew exactly what was being done.They completed the job right on schedule and handled my property with great care. It’s clear this company prioritizes hiring good, high-quality people. I highly recommend their services to anyone dealing with concrete issues!

Steven, Chris, and Antoine did an excellent job. They even went above and beyond helping us move my aluminum wheelchair ramp out of the way, and more importantly back into the exact position it was previously. They were prompt, professional, treated my home and yard like it was their own. I would definitely recommend this crew from Alpha Foundations

We had an amazing experience with this basement waterproofing company! From start to finish, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we felt confident in the process. The work was done efficiently and with great attention to detail, and our basement has been completely dry ever since. You can really tell they take pride in what they do. The crew was respectful of our home and left everything clean when they finished. Highly recommend this company and especially Kevin Sweeney! To anyone dealing with water issues in their basement — truly a 5-star experience!

I had an outstanding service experience today. Austin was the GW representative. He communicated well and showed up 5 min early. He spent about 2.5 hrs inspecting and thoroughly cleaning the crawl space. He meticulously checked the sump pump and changed filter on dehumidifier. He gave me an overview of the status that I found very useful. I’m a business owner too. This level of service is what all companies should strive for – from perspective of the customer facing side, my experience was exemplary. I know GE is national in scope but I felt like I was dealing with a locally owned business where customers and relationships matter.
