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.

Owen came today concerning my leaky basement windows. He helped as much as he could to stop air and water leakage until I can get these windows replaced. Also checked my foundation in a walk around for prevention sake. Thanks Owen for giving me some extra TLC!!!

I am so glad that I choose Alpha Foundations for my pool deck leveling. From the time Sam and Kevin arrived, until the job was completed, they worked as a team with precision and knowledge that could be seen right from the start. Any and all my questions were answered and explained, sometimes with a laugh thrown in. So pleasant to hear that, which is rare these days. They worked nonstop until the job was done. Very grateful for these two guys, who do great work.

Poly foam was used for leveling out a large, off set crack on my cement porch. A couple of smaller cracks were filled as well. The porch is level and looks Great. Zech and Tyler worked well as a team. They encouraged and answered all my questions. Zech and Tyler both showed integrity and a desire to do the job correctly and completely ( including 100% clean up after the job was completed). I would recommend Zech and Tyler to anyone. Thank you Lori L

Josh and Dylan are a great team. I watched most of the process and noticed how efficiently they work together. The leveling met my expectations, and the crack repair exceeded them. I was expecting a bright white filler (based on the tv commercial), but Josh used a filler closer to the color of concrete, then blended sand. The result was a much more natural look. Overall GREAT JOB!!!!!

My Groundworks people were Fernando G., C.J., and Money Mike. They kept me informed of everything that was going to be done. I appreciated that immensely. C.J. was a total trooper to come out when he had an injury! He didn't want to leave them a man down. Being prior military, that meant something to me. Fernando was such a cool foreman. Money Mike was musical and entertaining. Thanks again y'all. Great job!
