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.

Nathan and Morris provided excellent service installing additional jacks in my crawlspace. They were punctual, professional, and finished ahead of schedule. While a previous salesperson recommended the extra jacks to fix my shifting baseboards, Nathan (the job manager) took the service to the next level. He used a laser to precisely measure a 1.5-inch drop and actually modified the placement of the new jacks for better support. He was incredibly thorough, taking photos under the house and explaining that the builder had spaced the original beams too far apart on one side of the home. Nathan was the first person to explain the root cause of my structural issues in such detail. He set up a plan to raise the house gradually over the next three months to avoid damage and even gave me a heads-up that we might need steel reinforcement in the future due to the wide span of the wooden beams. I truly appreciate the expertise and efficiency—great job!"

John Alexander was my service tech yesterday. He completed my annual inspection on the crawlspace work that was completed with AFS. He was hands down 1 of the best service providers I’ve ever had to the pleasure of meeting. He understood my concerns, and instantly got to work doing everything he could to make it right! And he did!

I recently hired this company to install two basement egress windows in one of my rental properties, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park! From the first call, they were super quick to respond—got back to me right away, answered all my questions, and scheduled everything efficiently without any hassle. The team that came out was incredibly professional: polite, knowledgeable, and clearly experienced with egress installations. They did a fantastic job on both windows—clean cuts, solid work around the foundation, great attention to detail, and they left the site spotless when they were done. The new windows look perfect, meet code, and add real value (and safety!) to the rental. If you’re a landlord or homeowner needing egress windows, I highly recommend them. Fast, professional, and top-quality work. Will definitely use them again!

Awesome company, especially their customer rep Blake Snidow. I expected a hard sell for services I may have not needed, and instead got an amiable, no-nonsense evaluation of available options – with no upsell pressure. Blake was timely, kept me informed of his schedule, and was very professional in his evaluation and fiscally conservative on his presentation of options. The fact that they are an employee-owned company probably has the effect of producing professionals like Blake.

I had an outstanding experience with Evan, Aldo and Jorge. Evan and his team went above and beyond to assist and make sure the job was done correctly and that I was happy with everything in the end. He truly went out of his way to make things work out for me. I cannot recommend these three enough. They also got the job time in a timely manner, cleaned up their mess and were very friendly and helpful.

This team is fantastic! Mark first came to my home, assessed my needs and proposed a solution. During the preparation stage, Mark and other members of the team stayed in touch. On remediation day 1, Silvino contacted me regarding his arrival time. The excellent communication continued over the 2 days they were in my home. His team was polite, professional and extremely clean. They minimized the intrusion in my life, which isn't easy when you have jackhammers in your basement. Upon their exit, Silvino promised to send photos of the entire process. I highly recommend Groundworks!
