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.

We had Bryce Jacovetti out to our house as our inspector and would highly recommend using Innovative Basement and Bryce. He came out and did the most thorough job of anyone we called. I have not met someone as knowledgeable as Bryce in a long time. Strongly suggest calling Innovative and if you have structural problems no one will be able to figure it out like Bryce can!

Our sunroom (an elevated, attached structure sitting on a hill with three outside walls) was sinking at the far end and pulling away from the house on the inner wall. The crew that Indiana Foundation sent out for the fix was amazing. Anthony W. , Bruce T. and Mike A. were the hardest working crew I’ve ever observed. Never once did I see any of them just standing around. They thoroughly explained everything, Anthony kept us informed at each step of the project and they were all very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. They were also very considerate of our landscaping. To our surprise (another company had said it couldn’t be done) they were able to lift the room, level and stabilize the structure and close the gap on the inner wall. From the very beginning when we received our estimate and signed our contract (with Jim D., who was also great to work with) to the end of the project took only five days. The final cost was about twenty percent cheaper than some other estimates we received and the work came with a lifetime guarantee. So glad we chose this company. Janet and Ken C.

Groundworks maintenance technician came out today for our first annual inspection. Ashton was very professional. He gave the sump drainage system under our house a thorough inspection, I know as I crawl under the house with him. He went over every aspect of the system and answered all of my questions. Everything is working perfectly. The inspection was well worth the time. The annual service is included with the project for a period of 5 years.

The technicians from DryPro Charlotte, Jonathan, Marco, and Josiah, did an excellent job with the installation of drain lune, sump pump, dehumidifier, and complete insulation in the crawlspace of my house. They were knowledgeable and explained how the system works. I would recommend both DryPro and these technicians to anyone seeking crawlspace waterproofing. My salesman, Brandon Poovey, was also very helpful and knowledgeable.

I’m more than pleased with what AquaGuard was able to do with my brick front steps. Joseph, Brondon, and Hector were very professional, extremely polite and informative about what they were going to be doing. This after picture doesn’t capture very well what the guys were able to do but it shows how large the steps are and gives an idea of the extreme weight of them. The steps had settled/tilted away from the porch several inches and the mortar stuck between the steps and the wall and was pulling the wall with it, causing cracks in the brick wall and top brick border on the porch edge to kick up. I was worried a very pricey full tear out and rebuild was necessary. The guys lifted the steps up and back towards the house and the porch wall went back straight and the cracks closed up. In addition, the pillars will keep the steps in place and avoid future settling. I highly recommend AquaGuard. Thanks guys!!!!

The front wall of my basement was developing cracks and starting to bulge in the middle so I called Groundworks based on reviews I had read. Erik E. came to the house and gave me a rundown on what my options were and what to expect from the company. He was very informative and personable and I signed up to have the work done. Before the team showed up to work, I was given clear expectations from Groundworks as to what I needed to have completed so the team could work efficiently. When the first day of the three-day job came the work team (Mike K., Harry M., and Josh G.) inspected the job site and went right to work. At the end of each day, Mike called me and told me what had been accomplished and what was coming up the next day. Looking at the end results, the team worked well and everything was done on time. I highly recommend Groundworks and the people they have doing the work! I feel much better knowing the structure of the basement is sound and dry!
