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.

Jes Foundation, I can truly say there worth the money. Everyone involved was courteous and professional with me. I am greatful with the extensive knowledge and professionalism from technician Corey who serviced my home. Corey caught a mistake and explained everything to me in great detail. Corey also took it upon himself to orchestrate and coordinate the new install date along with the city permit process. What could have turned out to be a nightmare did not due to Corey’s persistent. I really appreciate the sincere effort and I would recommend Jes Foundation to any homeowner needing foundation repair with a proven warranty system.

Recently had crawl space work done by AFS. The install crew led by Javier along with Quincey and Reynaldo were wonderful to work with. Javier's timely and thorough communication was top notch. All three never seemed to slow down or take a break for the entirety of the two full day project (other than a lunch break each day). Unlike other groups I have had working on home projects (who try to rush the sign-off) Javier took the time to show me every aspect of the completed project to make sure I was satisfied. Thanks!

We have a bermed concrete house in a hillside, and a small storage unit at one side had started leaking through the floor. A heavy rain or snow melting day would leave a major puddle, so I worried about it getting worse, and mold. I saw the Groundworks ad on TV. (Good grief.) I called, had a quickly schedules visitation, an assessment, and a very fast turnaround with workers installing a sump system in 2 days of work. I have yet to go through a heavy rain, but I am very impressed with this crew. Dorothy Bradley

We are very fortunate to have Groungworks doing work to prevent water leaking in our basement. The Groundworks staff such as Candace, Chance, Jason and Brice are all very helpful, especially Brice, he did his job well and beyond! The basement part is done well, however, the stairs part is disappointing – the newly built stairs were not made to match with the old stairs regarding distance between steps, I have safety concerns for the way it was built. I hope Groundworks can find a reputable stairs contractor to recommend to the customers, or, if Groundworks has its own carpenter to do the stairs part, it would be even better! My two cents. Thank you.

We had a very positive experience with the crew from Groundworks consisting of Foreman Gabriel Amaya, and crew members Juan and Rodrigo. Gabriel was courteous; the work was done efficiently and professionally. The Foreman communicated with us regularly during the course of the week-long project. They made every effort to minimize the disruption to our household and schedule. We have every hope that our water problems have been solved.

Great experience with Groundworks. Colby and Tyler came over to inspect some suspected foundation settlement. They were very thorough with their assessment and very honest in their findings. They took the time to communicate everything and answer any questions. It makes a huge difference when a professional takes the time to sit down with you and explain things clearly. I highly recommend this company.
