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.

Foundation Systems of Michigan sent out the crew members of Jonah **, Logan **, Gabe *., and Bryant *. to put in a supplemental beam and several jacks to firm up the support of our home’s foundation. We appreciated the communication with Jonah, as he let us know the crew was on the way this morning and let us know when they would arrive. He also touched base with us several times during the process to update us on their progress, explaining the process, showing us photos of the work being done in our crawlspace, and answering any of our questions. The crew seemed to work very efficiently, and made good time in finishing the job earlier than we expected, leaving the worksite clean!

This is the second time we’ve used Groundwork’s. Jacob, Richard, Timmy and Christian were here for five days water proofing our crawl space that was filled with water and mold. They completely encapsulated it, added a sub pump and an air filter system. They did an incredible job and communicated daily on their progress and findings. The crawl space looks amazing! I want to give a shoutout to Daniel who showed up on Christmas Eve to inspect it and get us an estimate. Highly recommend Groundwork’s.

This is the 2nd project Alpha Foundation has done for me. I am very pleased with their work and how they left the work area. Clint and Hunter arrived ahead of schedule (yay!), were very communicative, professional and worked diligently. At the end, they explained the process of the work they did. I would recommend Alpha Foundation (Clint and Hunter) for your foundation/crawl space needs.

I had my first maintenance on my two sump pumps and was very impressed by the great service and knowledge of the Groundworks technician Madison Hedricks. She worked efficiently while taking the time to answer my questions and explain how the pumps were working. The layout of my house was not straightforward but Madison quickly figured out how to complete her maintenance and took extra care to clean up/put everything back the way it was.

I cannot thank groundworks enough. not just the first time but every time. Since installation ( a few years back) they send out great techs who are knowledgeable and quick. My tec Jeremy Marshall was very thorough and help replace missing part for some of my units. He followed me around the state hitting a few of my properties, checking everything and I'm glad to have groundworks as a servicer.

I had a great experience with Alpha Foundations! Foreman Will, with his crew Jacob, Broskey, and Jacob did a phenomenal job taking care of my home! Eric did a stand up job with the initial job coming out to diagnose what was wrong. I can sleep easy now knowing my house was taken care of. Kept the job site clean and did a great job communicating! Would give 10 stars if i could!!

Brandon and his crew were wonderful to work with. We had pretty extensive movement in our foundation, and Brandon was knowledgeable and took the time to carefully explain all of our options and how each would look. He and his crew were communicative and professional. Our biggest fear was that our new kitchen granite counters would crack in the lifting, but Brandon and his crew were extremely mindful of the situation, taking extra care and nothing cracked. Thank you, Brandon!

Patio slab is pulling away, Scott did a survey and has a solution. Everything was well explained, professional, and reassuring that this will do the trick. It's one of those costly things homeowners endure that's part of life, but these guys should be able to handle it.
