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 great experience with Alpha Foundations from start to finish. Our home required a piling encasement due to a split piling—something that understandably got our attention. Our realtor recommended Alpha, and the team responded quickly and professionally. They showed up on time, ready to work, and clearly knew what they were doing. Along the way, we did run into a small hiccup—some grout leakage during the install. But what really stood out was how the team handled it. The root cause (a joint alignment issue) was identified, they took ownership, and resolved it the right way. No excuses—just problem-solving and follow-through. By the end, everything was properly sealed, the work area was clean, and the job was done with care. Most importantly, the team maintained a positive attitude throughout—there were even a few smiles and light moments along the way, which we appreciated. All in all, a professional, responsive, and customer-focused team. We’d gladly recommend Alpha Foundations. — Bob

I just wanted to share my great experience with Justin. He was super friendly and helpful throughout the whole process. He got back to me right away whenever I contacted him, and he was on time. Most importantly, he was totally honest with me, even when it meant we didn't end up needing his services. I really appreciated his upfront and fair assessment of the situation. I'd definitely recommend him to anyone who needs his help!

Jeremy got done with the job ahead of us and called to see if he could come early. When he got to our place he explained what he was going to do and did it in a timely manner. He was professional and explained everything so we could understand. While he was in the crawl space inspecting the columns he took pictures of the crawl space and showed them to us. I wouldn't mind if he came back for the next inspection.

Elliot arrived on time and was easy to talk to and understand. He went right to work checking out my crawl space on a freezing cold day. When he was done he shared his findings with me and drew up a foot print of the house and the work he recommended. It was all well explained and understandable me. He also gave me a quote for the work. It took about 2-3 hours and I'm confident he did a quality job.

From the moment Jarrod walked through the door I knew I was in good hands. He is very knowledgeable and explained clearly to me what the issues were. When he came back to do my tankless hot water heater install he even remembered my dog’s name and brought him a dog treat! He wastes no time and did great work in a very tight space. I was blown away by this man’s knowledge; he knows his job, he knows the equipment he is installing. This was a complex two man install and he did it by himself effortlessly. On time, professional, answered all of my questions, and did incredible work. If you want exceptional quality and excellence without compromise, ask for Jarrod from A1 sewer & drain. Jarrod made me an A1 customer for life.

Cody, David and Chris did a fantastic job raising our sidewalk. They raised a curved 25ft 5 step walkway 6 inches. Cody explains the whole cost and process very well. David is a true expert in his field. And, Chris worked well doing the little things to keep the job on pace. All are true professionals. It was a great pleasure interacting with them. I highly recommend them for any needs you may have regarding concrete leveling.
