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.

Howard came out to do an inspection in my basement for water damage/leaking. He was absolutely amazing! I liked that he had videos detailing exactly what they were going to do. He gave me an opportunity to ask questions before I had the work perform instead of during. I would definitely recommend him to everyone.

I recently had my crawl space encapsulated by Groundworks, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From start to finish, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond. My salesman, Andy, was fantastic. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood exactly what my home needed. His expertise and professionalism gave me a lot of confidence moving forward. Groundworks also coordinated a subcontractor to replace the floor under my shower, and they did an excellent job. The repair was done right, and the craftsmanship was top-notch. The encapsulation crew, led by Alex, was equally impressive. They communicated with me throughout the process, worked extremely hard, and paid attention to every detail. You can tell they take pride in their work, and it really shows in the final result. Overall, I’m very happy with the work Groundworks did. My crawl space looks amazing, and the entire team exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Groundworks to anyone considering crawl space repairs or encapsulation.

Very happy with all aspects of my crawl space encapsulation performed by the JES crew! The crew consisted of David Hill (super), Steven Steadman and Jerom Highter were all efficient, professional and considerate of our property! Especially notable was the text tracking the teams progress to the job site and the continuous briefing by David of what was to be accomplished each day, any issues encountered! Highly recommend JES for this task and any other foundation issue you may have

The team I worked with at BAU was great. I hired them to repair some minor vertical and horizontal foundation cracks that were found in a recent general home inspection. Everyone who came out was upbeat, professional, punctual, thorough, and highly detailed. Hunter came out first to check the entire foundation and give a free estimate. They then split the work up into two dates, and each crew was great. Michael and James came out first for the initial round, and then Alexander and Gabe came out to wrap up the last few areas. The guys were always on time, which is greatly appreciated. Both repair teams also did their own additional checks of the surrounding areas, also greatly appreciated. They were also able to provide before and after pictures, and were respectful of the property.

Wes Woodin and Dry Pro did an amazing job with our crawl space encapsulation. Wes was even able to identify a few areas that needed attention (plumbing and hvac exhaust pipe leak) that we were never aware of. I highly recommend them for crawl space needs and they were in and out in 3 days! Thank you everyone for your hard work and responsiveness!

Chance Bender, Donovan Birks, and Chaastin Antwine did an outstanding job repairing the sagging floor under my house. Their work on the joists was done professionally and with great attention to detail. You can really tell they take pride in what they do. They showed up ready to work, stayed efficient throughout the job, and made sure everything was solid and secure before finishing. The difference is noticeable right away—the floor feels strong and level again. I truly appreciate the quality of their work and their professionalism. These guys definitely deserve recognition. Highly recommend them to anyone needing this kind of work done. Aslp, Rick Holt did an excellent job handling my annual maintenance and inspection. He was very thorough, taking the time to carefully check everything and make sure nothing was overlooked. He explained what he was doing along the way and pointed out anything that might need attention in the future, which I really appreciated. It’s clear he takes pride in his work and wants to make sure everything is safe and running properly. Professional, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented—Rick did a great job, and I’d definitely recommend him to anyone needing maintenance or an inspection!

Alpha foundations is one of the best companies we have worked with in a very long time. Our entire experience, from start to finish, was pleasant. Our foreman, Will, was an absolute professional. He and his team (Jake & Hunter) did a stellar job on our encapsulation and even stayed late the first day on the job to ensure they got to a point where they knew they could finish it up on time the next day. He even discovered a pest situation we weren’t aware of under our home and when the pest control man went under the house, even he was impressed by their work! He said he’s seen a lot of encapsulation jobs under homes and ours was by far the best he’s ever seen. We highly recommend this company and you will be even luckier if Will, Jake, and Hunter are your assigned team to get the job done.
