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.

I met with Vincent Palmer to get my estimate. He explained all the details clearly. He responded to all the questions we asked. On the installation day the foreman Joel Lugo and his team members Jose Garcia Roberto Lemus and Jose Alejandro Vazquez showed up. They were very skilled and knew a lot about their work. They explained how the process works. They ensured that I was happy with the service we got.

I am very pleased with the service received from Tar Hill Basement and the outstanding job done by Service Tech Josh Lichtenberger. I was very pleased with this young man's professionalism, ability and customer care. He very efficiently diagnosed the problems with my sump pump and dehumidifier. He then proceeded to clean and replace/update or repair old or worn out parts. I asked a trillion questions and he very patiently explained to me my system(s) and how they worked. His commitment to go the extra mile is much appreciated. I highly recommended the company, the equipment and the service tech.

Approximately 2 years ago Bay Area underpinning repaired my foundation settling. Aston Price representing the Service department came out for a follow up validation to ensure all was still as expected. Upon completion of his audit he reviewed the detailed results with me and next steps in the process for one minor localized adjustment. His customer oriented approach, professional yet personable attitude is a continued testimony why I chose Bay Area underpinning over the competition. Richard Eagleston

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

Had Jeremy come out! He was great!! The thing I liked the most about him, he didn’t try and force us to get something we didn’t need! He was honest and his integrity stood out when he told us nothing that his company does would be a solution for our small problem! I would use this company again and request Jeremy as the person to come for my inspection!
