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 contacted AquaGuard because I had water seeping into my garage everytime there was a heavy rain. Their rep. came out and surveyed the problem area. He proposed a solution and quoted a reasonable price. I accepted the quote and set a date to begin the work. Two young men showed up on time and ready to work. They politely introduced themselves as Tanner and Daelin. They explained what they were going to do. The job involved jackhammer work and lots of digging. They were not bothered by the degree of difficulty, they just went at it and finished the job before noon . They were very professional and efficient. I feel very comfortable calling AquaGuard if I have another issue in the future. No doubt I will definitely recommend your company to anyone who needs this type of work. Thanks Tanner and Daekin for a job well done. E. Ford

I recently had the pleasure of working with Drake Johnson (foreman), Kole sumpter (co Forman), and Bryan Robinson (labor). When they arrived they took the time to explain the process thoroughly, ensuring I understood every step of the way. They arrived on time and worked efficiently, demonstrating exceptional professionalism and expertise. They were very personable and when they were finished they made sure everything was cleaned up. From start to finish they did a great job! Thank you for a job well done! — Feel free to customize it with specific details or names!

The 3 guys who worked at my house were amazing. Gary Hacker has the best skills of any worker I"ve ever encountered. Ben Palmer and Axel Perez were also awesome. I will recommend Tar Heel Basement to everyone. I am 67 and the work that Gary Hacker, Ben, and Axel did on my floors will out last me by years. If I could adopt all 3 of them I would.

I wanted to recognize two JES employees for exemplary customer service. Stephaney Bilyard brought to my attention that JES still needed to schedule the final inspection of the work they completed. She was very pleasant and professional in her approach, which immediately put me at ease. Initially, I was concerned that this might be a scam, but her clear communication and professionalism reassured me otherwise. She worked diligently to coordinate everything and ensured the process went smoothly. The second employee I would like to recognize is Demetrius (last name unknown), who was the JES representative scheduled to meet with the inspector. Demetrius went above and beyond expectations. I had a minor issue with a door after the work was completed, and he took the time to fix it. He was easy to work with, and everything is now functioning properly. Both individuals represented JES in an outstanding manner, and I felt it was important to share my appreciation. Thank you, Jim
