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.

I just received a visit from Inspector Andre Williams. I was happy to receive a text message to confirm the arrival time. I also received an arrival text. This heads up allowed me the opportunity to move my feisty dog to another room. Andre's visit was due to a request I put in for a warning signal that has been repeating for the last week. Andre explained the reason for the signal, and immediately resolved the problem. That definitely put me at ease. Thank you so much Andre. The signal was driving me crazy, but now I feel sanity returning. Wonderful!

Taylor Jeffries came out last year to inspect my crawlspace. He was very thorough and ultimately recommended a full encapsulation and drainage. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and the crew that installed the work was fabulous. My HVAC bill went down, my allergies have subsided, and I feel safer that my wood is not going to decay from moisture problems.

Jeremy, Edward and Samuel did a superb job installing the CrawlSeal encapsulation in our crawl space. They were courteous, professional, and on time. Jeremy communicated and showed pictures of the entire process every day so we were aware of what was being done. They laid down protection for our floors and cleaned up everything when finished. We recommend their work totally.

Very appreciate of the work done to solve water issues in my basement. Antoine Gant, Gerald Peoples, and Troy Griffin did a phenomenal job installing a drainage system and pump. Along with the installation work, they also helped clear all the sandbags away from the work area. I’m thankful for their willingness to go above and beyond the scope of the job. It was a huge help. They were tidy, patient, and open to answering any questions I had. After they were done they gave me very specific instructions on how to manage the work area. No complaints at all about the work these gentleman did in my home! Blessings.

Chris Trevitz did a great job. Called in advance to let me know he was going to be a bit late. Did a thorough inspection of the walls, drains, sump pump and dehumidifier. He fixed a problem with the original installation of the dehumidifier. The dehumidifier was installed with the controls facing the wall and I had to twist the unit around whenever I needed to access them. Chris rotated the unit around so I can easily access the controls.

The salesman that reviewed our home told us that the work identified by him would fix the symptoms that we were experiencing. When the technicians came out to do the work, the head guy looked at our issues and informed me that the prescribed work would nothing for issues. Thus, he immediately let me cancel the work with the promise of getting our deposit back. That shows me that the company is more interested in having a satisfied customer, than making a profit. Please note their salesmen need to be better trained, so that this kind of situation does not occur in the future.

Zach and his crew did an amazing job repairing our foundation. He explained everything that was going to happen step-by-step, was always open to questions, and pitched in with his crew at work just as hard digging in and installing the poles to lift the foundation. They also had to saw into our wooden deck and put some temporary repairs in after the foundation work was done. All done professionally. My thanks to everyone. Crew-Zach, LJ, Anjel, kiwinoskey Field supervisor- Kazvin CFI- Kristopher All were professional, courteous and worked under some adverse conditions; we got an inch and a quarter of rain early the second morning and winds were gusting up to 45 miles an hour all day. After pumping the water out of the 11 holes dug the previous day, they still managed to finish in two days, just as predicted.

Good day, Kevin, I am happy to report the job went as planned, and the staff were exceptional! Brandon and Imani are quite a team. Professional, knowledgeable, polite, considerate and motivated. I felt like I had family taking care of the repairs on my home. They kept me updated and explained as they progressed what they had done and what was to come. Even with the rain, they managed to stay on schedule. After the initial inspection by Chris and a thorough explanation of their recommendations to correct my foundation and having had similar work done by another company in the past, I deceided to proceed with BAU. 11 plates and pins with an additional 26 screw-jacks has leveled the entire house. I could not be more pleased with the entire experience…AND MY BEDROOM DOOR CLOSES!! I would and already have recommended this company to others. If you need foundation work, you will get an excellent job at an excellent price from BAU/Groundworks. I would gladly award SEVEN STARS! They are that good! Nora Flynn

Great work from Alpha Foundations beginning with Salesman David Premo who assured me I would be happy with their work. Today Jordan Holland and coworker George performed concrete lifting and grinding down of concrete left behind by prior contractor. The outcome exceeded our expectations and our driveway is now level and professional. Jordan and George are extremely friendly, polite, and showed up on time prepared to get the job done. They are definitely highly experienced and an asset to this company. Highly recommend Alpha Foundations!
