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.

Recently purchased a commercial grade dehumidifier from FRS and had it installed in our crawl space. Timber was very knowledgeable about the product and size of unit we needed. The installation crew arrived on time and made a modification to the wooden frame of our crawl space entrance to enable the unit to fit through the opening and be properly installed. A few months later, Timber stopped by to check on things to be certain that the unit was functioning properly and that there was no kink in the drain hose or anything. As a result, the crawl space is bone dry despite the high temperatures and humidity we have had this summer. The unit is doing what it is designed to do. We are very satisfied with Foundation Recovery Systems and recommend their services.

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!

I really would like to recognize Jessie of Groundworks, I received exceptional customer service from him. Not only does he go the extra mile, he really cares about the people. I had a really major issue and he ended up really helping me in a time of need, not many people would do what he did, drop everything and just go out of his way to help out. I’m so glad that Jessie was there to help and really calmed a lot of my uncertainties in the situation that I had. I can tell you that he is a very hard worker and will step up and help when needed. You can count on Jessie! Irving, Tx

Dave Peterson was fantastic to work with! He was able to meet with me one day after I inquired, and I had a quote the same day. Work commenced shortly after and the crew did an excellent job of leveling my front porch (builder did not appropriately back fill under the concrete porch). Highly recommend Dave Peterson & Innovative Basement Authority!

AFS Nashville just finished a total encapsulation of our crawl space. From the initial assessment, proposal presentation, financing options, to the outstanding installation team…this company is 5 Star!!! Every person we worked with was both professional, experienced, delivered on their promises, and very thorough. In particular, their installation team led by Evan Jensen along with Aldo Gracia and Jorge Martinez were outstanding. They communicated extremely well, were polite, on time, were very considerate of our property, and their encapsulation install looks amazing. In our mind, there is no other choice than AFS in Nashville for your groundworks needs!
