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 have an old house on a hill, which has a lot of underground streams. Over the years the soil under our foundation has destabilized, causing one side of the house to sink. We talked to a lot of foundation contractors, but it was Matvey that really impressed us. Their attention to detail, and proper approaches (including engineering reports, load calculations etc) was fantastic and reassuring. They worked with the city to push through permitting, and kept us well updated on that process. The solution we needed was metal support piles under the foundation on one side of the house. Marco and Eduardo, the install team, were amazing. Really knowledgeable, friendly and great workers. They did an awesome job of installing the foundation supports, and left the area they were working in cleaner than before they came. Matvey were not the cheapest quote we got – but we felt that their approach was the best, and most thought out. I’d also argue your house foundation isn’t an area to cheap out on 🙂

Trevor Atwell performed our 1 year service call. Very thorough and professional. Contacted me prior to the appointment, and kept me informed throughout. Explained everything he would do and reviewed with me upon completion. He had a couple of recommendations that were sensible and appropriate. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Trevor – he's a very positive representative for FRS.

Luke and Kaly came out today to lift my concrete and did a fantastic job of getting everything as level as they could. I have a lot of cracked concrete on an 80 year old property that needed leveled and sealed. Mike the initial guy that came out to go over what insurance wanted fixed as well as my concerns worked with me to get an affordable option for the job! They also offer great financing options if needed. I did just the lift portion from them but I'll do do all the filling of the cracks just bc I know how and it saved me money. I have a 3 year warranty where they will come out and measure and check everything once a year and a 5 year warranty on the work itself! This was not the cheapest company I got quotes from but they were the most professional and also had the warranties for the work so that is why I chose them! If you need help with lifting your home or concrete I'd highly recommend Groundworks!!!

David and crew did an outstanding job! They leveled and stabilized our house in strategic areas with piers and jacks and it closed up some cracks in the drywall. They communicated well and were very professional. They also cleaned up everything well. I highly recommend these guys that came down to Durango from Grand Junction. I also want that TJ Stastny was amazing too with guiding us as to recommendations and the free consultation up front here in Durango. He was top notch. We were hoping to find a company that could do this and so happy with the result! They use lazers for determining level and are highly detail oriented. Also they will follow up to check up on things for 3 years with the plan we chose. The company was also helpful with finding financing. Thanks so much!

The job turned out to be more than originally thought but the crew working here at our house took it all in stride and carried on professionally and diligently. They kept us informed at all times on their progress and any roadblocks that were encountered. The entire crew was extremely courteous and thoughtful and always was respectful of us and our property. We give a big THANK YOU and a shoutout to Joshua Lusk, Brendon Keyes, Lee Nelson, Tyrell Jones and their supervisor Eric.

I found them by a quick google search but of course reading the reviews I decided to go with their service. I was first contacted by Peter Sirna who was the sales associate who helped schedule everything and answer every question we had. When I say every question he did, even a text on the weekend he was quick to respond. The crew came out on the day that promised and there were a couple of issues. They immediately brought them to our attention and they broke down how to solve the issue promptly. The crew ran by Joel, Trayvon, and Coleman were awesome. They got here early and stayed late if they had to. If you have any doubts on which company to use I would highly recommend them, they are extremely professional, cleaned up afterwards, and will even come back in the future to make sure that all the work they did was done correctly. Lifetime warranty is a cherry on top. Wouldn’t be the sharpest knife if you went with someone else.
