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 called Alpha Foundation off of Google and I’m so grateful I did! I’m a single female yet Sterling (my field inspector) was very helpful Extremely Knowledgeable professional personable and Honest! Sterling answered and easily explained all of my concerns. I do not need any assistance now yet he explained what to look for if there are any concerns and took pictures as a base. This was done as a free inspection I even offered him a payment as he put my mind at peace and he said it’s no charge! I’m so grateful for Sterling and Alpha Foundation I’m so glad I called! I would use them anytime and would Definitely refer them to anyone! Thanks so much! Carol T.

Great company, great team. From bid process with Brian to execution with Mark and Brandon everyone did exactly what they promised when they promised. I couldn't be more pleased with the final result. My patio no longer drains to the foundation but away as it should even in the heaviest rain. Would use these guys again in a heartbeat! Thanks!

Jordan came out to look at some of these cracks in my basement walls, they just showed up one day and nearly gave my girls a panic attack!! He was SUPER knowledgeable and you can tell he’s been doing this for a long time. Even when we were talking numbers, I never felt like he was rushing me. He went over all my options in detail and I really felt confident knowing the next steps. I’d totally recommend him to anyone needing an inspection!!!

We had some sinking concrete from errosion. Alpha Foundations did an excellent job using foam filler to raise concrete and also fill in other areas where there was errosion, but concrete had yet to sink. Everything was clearly explained from the consultation to start of work to job finished. Garrett and James were courteous and professional. I recommend Alpha.
