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.

We called Mount Valley last Friday to get an estimate on some foundation repairs that have gotten progressively worse. They scheduled an appointment that day for Wednesday of next week. Dino Rhoads was the technician who came to assess the issue. He called to let me know exactly when he would be arriving. He was very considerate and polite and had a vast amount of knowledge. The assessment took several hours and I was amazed at how thorough he was in getting exact details so that he could best create a plan for us. When he finished looking at, around, and under the house, we sat for at least an hour where he shared pictures of what he saw and explained in detail what they indicated. I never got the feeling like he was trying to sell me anything that I didn't specifically ask for and need. Dino showed excellent professionalism, and an exceptional knowledge of our situation and the best ways to remedy them. I'm very impressed! I would absolutely recommend their services! And, ask for Dino!

Josh Brown and Manuel Cruz did an outstanding job. Before and after photos speak for themselves. Josh and Manuel were very professional yet friendly. Josh kept me informed of each step and even allowed me to go in the crawl space to see for myself. Of course I had 50 questions which he took the time to explain. Not once did he get upset or say I was in the way. I looked forward to them showing up on time each day. I even got a notice to confirm their location and travel route to my house. Interesting to note, the inspector for Stafford County commented he was impressed with the work completed by Josh and Manuel citing he had never seen such an awesome job. Since completion, I have shown people at my church the before and after pictures as well as everyone that visits must see the work completed by Josh and Manuel. I am beyond pleased. I am grateful!

Five stars, hands down. Before the repair, my crawlspace was the kind of place you open once, shine a flashlight into, and immediately say, “Nope. Not today.” It was dirty, cramped, and probably had its own ecosystem with spiders, roots, and three generations of previous owners’ discarded hubcaps and bad decisions. I first worked with Matt, who didn’t hesitate to crawl under there for a full inspection. He took pictures, explained everything clearly, and somehow made it sound manageable instead of catastrophic. He even came out between Christmas and New Year’s while I had time off, which I appreciated. Thanks again, Matt. Then Logan, Tori, and Corey showed up for the install. These guys spent days crawling around under my house dragging plastic encapsulation, supports, and tools through conditions that would make most people suddenly remember they had somewhere else to be. Crawlspace work is tight, dirty, uncomfortable work, and they handled it like pros. They explained the process, answered my questions, worked quickly, and didn't laugh at the repairs I had made before calling them. The transformation is honestly impressive. My crawlspace went from something I actively avoided thinking about to clean, dry, fully encapsulated, and properly supported. It’s now structurally sound, sealed up tight, and honestly better put together than some job sites I’ve seen above ground. I never thought I’d feel proud of a crawlspace, but here we are.

Aaron and Londynn arrived to help with a sloping patio addition, and also to level the driveway as it enters our garage. We knew the patio was going to be a challenging job; I already had a structural engineer give us her opinion about possible fixes. When Aaron looked at things, he had concerns about columns for an overhanging arbor which were piercing the patio slab, believing that these could be significant friction points during slab jacking. Unfortunately, and despite applying many tons of lifting force on the edge of the patio with jacks, the slab refused to budge. His concern at that point was that the slab would fracture at the weak point where the columns pierced the slab. With his recommendation. we elected to stop the lift at that point. Only a little disappointed, I realized his expertise had truly saved us from an unhappy result. They did inject foam to stabilize the patio at its current position, until we decide if a full replacement is in the cards. They then moved on to leveling the driveway slabs where it enters the garage. This part of the job was fast and very straightforward. They replaced all the deteriorating wooden strips at expansion joints. Everything there looks A++. We were charged only what we had placed as a downpayment for the entire job, despite them spending as much time at my home as they might have, had everything gone 100%. At the end of the day, I can say that I am very happy with the work that Aaron, London, and Groundworks did for us. And I am particularly impressed with the expertise of the men that Groundworks sent to take care of us. Although we weren't able to get done everything we'd hoped, I can confidently say that I would wholeheartedly recommend them for minimally invasive lifts of slabs, foundations, and driveways.

The FRS Team from start to finish has been a top tier team. Terry Bentz got us started with his annual review of a past project and a the evaluation of past measures. He set the stage for both a pier project and a poly project. We had to be prepared for a week of work. Landen’s crew came in and got the piers installed with professionalism and enthusiasm. Landen was great at communicating daily work efforts and the status of work. He also took the time to introduce us to his team giving credit for their hard work. Jeremiah and Jake followed on the heals of the pier work with poly work in both our garage and basement. This duo completed their part of the project ahead of time. So planned one week project finished in four days! Listen carefully to the engineer lead so you are ready for the FRS team and for the follow up you will need to do. We recommend their work and the quality of their follow ups. Thanks once again to Terry, Jeremiah, Jake and Landen with his super crew!
