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.

We had a problem with mold and moisture in our crawlspace that caused serious problems with my respiratory condition. A year ago we contracted a service that charged us a lot for what turned out to be a very bad job that left us with even more problems. We decided to seek bids to finally address the problem. We chose AFS because their representative, Alan McConnell, took time to evaluate the crawlspace and carefully explained what needed to be done. It was a multistage operation with Alan and AFS Crew Chief Sebastian coordinating with our electrician and HVAC contractor to get the job done in a timely way. Sebastian kept us informed of progress every step of the way. They left everything clean neat. We are very pleased with the results. You need to seek no further than AFS if you need a remedy for mold and moisture in your crawlspace. Thank you to our new friends Alan, Sebastian and crew, and AFS! A super company to do business with!

Had an emergency water pipe leak with water running into the basement where Groundworks had already installed a sump pump and drainage system. The pump clogged up with mud and wouldn’t work. Josh Moreno responded and worked so hard getting the system apart and cleaned out. Unfortunately he couldn’t finish until we got someone out to dig up the front yard and replace main water line. Josh was here first thing Monday morning and finished cleaning the system out, tested everything, and got everything working again. We are so thankful he responded to our home and took care of it. Thanks Josh!

Clay came and did an exceptional and very thorough inspection of our foundation, basement, and crawl space. In fact, it was the most thorough evaluation I’ve experienced. (My husband and I have had some very bad experiences with evaluations and work done by other companies.) Clay was respectful and genuinely cared about our experience. He wasn’t pushy AT ALL. Also, he took the time to answer our endless questions. He never rushed us. We never felt that we were a burden or had a stupid question. He took the time to show us pictures and measurements to back up his analysis and recommendations. If you have foundation, basement, or crawl space concerns, contact Foundation Systems of Michigan and ask for our “house doctor” Clay!

I recently had an issue with dripping water in my basement and the service from Groundworks was outstanding. Kenny Melford was the person who did the inspection and the work. Kenny was exceptional from start to finish – he explained everything he did, was very pleasant, and was very efficient. I'd highly recommend Groundworks and ask for Kenny if you're in their New Jersey service area.

Jordan came out to evaluate my foundation wall cracking. What a refreshing experience. Jordan’s amount of knowledge, empathy , and non pushy attitude was a welcome change. When we have that occasional eed for a contractor, we almost dislike to personal experience more than the problem. NOT in this case. AFS and Jordan are a true pleasure to deal with. The level of professionalism and knowledge was awesome! Even though it turns out we do need some work to stabilize our foundation, the price was fair, the value is fantastic, and the communication is the kind of stuff you wish for but rarely get. I’d give Jordan and AFS 10 stars if I could. Call these guys! You won’t regret the service or the experience.

It was such a big commitment and I couldn't be happier!
