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.

From the initial inspection by Landon, through the foundation repait by Brantley, Pat, Julian and Bobby, through the pier and beam installation by Matt and Tyron, to include the cost saving change, and finally the concrete leveling by Carnell and Desmond all work was done completely, professionally and timely with a constant flow of information on the process. Great work, timely arrival, superb coordination, and hard work is the entire team's standard at Mount Valley Foundation.

The guys at Alpha Foundations did an awesome job on my foundation. They diagnosed the problem and came up with the plan quickly. They were flexible on the schedule, showed up when they were supposed to, were professional and polite, worked quickly, and cleaned up the mess before leaving. I was very happy with the work and have peace of mind that the job was done right! Kudos to Luke, Hunter, and Nic who showed up and made it happen.

Alan McConnell with AFS Louisville truly made their company stand out as the gold standard in crawl space inspections. After discovering excessive water in my crawl space, I reached out to three companies for inspections and quotes. Alan’s professionalism, expertise, and unmatched attention to detail made him and AFS Louisville the clear choice. From the moment Alan arrived, it was evident that he takes his work seriously. He came fully prepared with the proper tools and conducted an extremely thorough inspection of the crawl space. What I appreciated most was his balanced approach—he not only identified problem areas but also pointed out aspects that were in good condition, giving me a full understanding of the situation. Alan’s detailed report set AFS Louisville apart from the competition. It included comprehensive notes and clear pictures that documented everything he found. This report wasn’t just informative—it was actionable and gave me confidence in the solutions being proposed. None of the other companies I worked with came close to providing this level of clarity and thoroughness. Alan’s professionalism and dedication to delivering high-quality service made all the difference. His ability to combine technical expertise with clear communication ensured I felt fully informed throughout the process. If you’re looking for a company that stands out for its professionalism, thoroughness, and customer focus, I highly recommend Alan McConnell and AFS Louisville. They’ve truly raised the bar for what a crawl space inspection should be.

I had a service call today for a recent sump installation from last Summer. I unfortunately had a poor initial experience with IBA and was half-expecting a similar experience this time. But I was very wrong. Ricky Oudekerk came to my house on time, took time to listen to my concerns and expertly diagnosed. On his own initiative he took the time to walk me through the sump system and its parts and explained what he was testing. I am new to Minnesota and to sumps generally, and this time was very much appreciated. It turned out I needed a new pump due to a bad component, and he diagnosed it and replaced all within a couple of hours. I was surprised and relieved by the experience. Based on this experience, I will consider IBA again for a future project. Thanks so much.

I want to thank you for your service to our basement since we got flooded in June. Casey came explained everything to us. He made it easy to understand. We scheduled to have it done. Leonard and Anthony were sent and 2 days later they were done after working about 10 hours per day. They were so professional and answered all our questions. They were great. Can’t say enough about them. Thank you again so much. Janice B Rosebro

Brian was friendly, professional and thorough. He took a look at and addressed any of my concerns and ensured that our foundation was in good shape before leaving. He is also a wealth of knowledge, so he took his time to explain what can be done to keep our foundation and sump pump at optimal health. We appreciate his service and that of JES for making this work so accessible for homeowners like myself.
