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.

Aaron came out and looked at our issue we were having with a concrete slab. He took his measurements and provided us with the information on the issue. Even though it was considered a small job for them, Aaron still provided the estimate and important info, and treated the estimate like any other large project that they do. He also offered to look at any other issues we had, but we didn't have any others requiring that type of work. I was sad to make him drive all that way for our small project, but would definitely recommend them to anyone for foundation or concrete issues, and they would also be my first call if we have any larger issues arise. I appreciate his honesty on the estimate and the information he provided even though it wasn't a project we could team up on. It's people like Aaron that renew my trust in contractors after having the other concrete contractor create my issue. Keep up the great honest work!!!!!

I cannot speak highly enough of the field supervisor, Frankie Jasinski. He was extremely responsive to the issues we experienced at our home following the installation. When we called regarding water entering the basement after the install, he came out promptly to assess the situation. Within just a few hours, he had a crew scheduled to come out and make the necessary repairs. After the recent rains, the repair proved successful, and we are happy to report that there is no longer any water entering the basement.

Nick Cianciolo with AFS in Nashville came to my home today for the annual inspection. I noticed some issues with my flooring and bought them to his attention. After his inspection, he made a detailed plan to resolve the issue and explained everything in detail so I knew exactly what caused the issue, but more importantly how to correct the problem. Nick was meticulous and even found a slight plumbing leak during his inspection. He is a true professional and a great asset to AFS.

I had Jamie Tobin come by for an appraisal of the work I was asking to be done. He was punctual despite the cold weather. Jamie explained the company history and current status with BBB. Then we went outside where I explained what I was in need of. Jamie then went to work with his tools and later asked me to come back outside so he could explain additional items I was not aware of. He explained well and proved his points with a laser light level. We went back inside where all the work was again explained to me and an estimate was provided on the spot. I decided it would be best to get fixed as soon as possible to avoid further changes or damages from occurring. It was a pleasant experience, and I would recommend Groundworks for anyone that is uncertain on how to proceed with uneven or not level concrete issues.

The guys did a great job and busted it out in 2 days. I no longer have to worry about a wet, unstable laundry room. They were friendly, communicated effectively, and left things tidy both days. I definitely recommend them, and look forward to working with them on future projects. Shout out to Bryant and his crew, Gabe, Ethan, and Jarred. You guys rock! I've attached a before and after photo.
