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.

Everything went smoothly from start to finish. Jay Hyman, came right out and identified the problem. He told me what my options were, and how much everything would cost. A date and time was scheduled for the work to be done. Abdoul and his team came out on the scheduled date and time and did a great job. They were very polite, friendly, and professional. Abdoul welcomed questions and was very knowledgeable. They also cleaned up very well afterwards. I would highly recommend JES Foundation to anyone who needs this type of work done.

Our front steps had pulledaway from our front porch.Your crew of Isaac and Way Lay raised the steps to where they were where they had been before. At the same time they raised part of the driveway and re-caulked the driveway. They were very professional and very efficient. The finished product improved the front of our house.

Our service tech Sam was great. He was on time and was very professional and respectful. He worked very hard in the hot sun kept us informed as to his progress in completing the job. He had about 70 feet of sidewalk to level back up and when he was done it looked great plus he did a fabulous job cleaning up. He certainly represented the company and himself very well and We highly recommend this company and Sam. Michael and Judy Gregg

Shane, Michael, and Heli did an excellent job overall! Shane reinforced an interior (leaning) wall with Heli's assistance and Shane showed and explained the work he did. Michael was also very professional in explaining to me the work he was doing in trenching and laying pipe to more adequately deliver the overflow. Both Shane and Heli pitched in to help complete Michael's project. All 3 were extremely focused and efficient, as well as keeping me informed. I will always be an AFS/Groundworks customer if/as needed

I can only speak to the Service end as my wife set up the appointment and work to be done. Moses, Mark V, and Danny were great. They were professional and worked very hard. Danny kept me informed at every stage and gave me *and my wife via Facetime* some valuable advice and recommendations. So, in the end, yeah, I trust these guys. They were very sincere and honest in all transactions and communications. AND they finished early!
