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.

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.

Didn’t believe that the sump pump and inside French drain could be done in two days. That is exactly what happened. Two days and the project completed. Luis S. Gustavo G. Gerson M and Devon W. Did a great job. On time, professional, personable. Clean up, yard and basement, better as can be expected. They did such a nice job, that I will never have to see them again on this property project. 😀 If needed, I would definitely use them again. From getting the bid (Dale K), to the completed project, all questions and concerns were answered. Had water intrusion in the past, nothing recently, My project was more a preventative issue going forward. So waiting for the next big storm to test the system. ⛈️ As a final note, any call I placed to FSM was returned within, or less, then the next day. Office staff, exceptional.

Excellent experience. Spent plenty of time with the staff member (even crawled under the house together to hear their thoughts in real time). Spent over an hour going through the recommendations and collaboratively came up with a phased approach to meet our needs and budget. Didn’t feel pressured or upsold on unnecessary work.

Jonathan Cossey did an exceptional job of making sure that my basement pumps worked properly. He was very professional and cleaned up after himself. He left our home better than he found it by taking extra time to make sure that everything was clean and tidy. He changed his shoes outside before coming in. Even stayed late to complete the job and make sure that I was satisfied with the system. Answered all of my questions and concerns.

Ohio Basement Authority gave us a very reasonable estimate for leveling out several problem spots in our concrete driveway and walkway to our front door. Then they contacted us when a spot opened on their job schedule a few months sooner than expected. Their crew, Nick and Earl, were on time, very personable, kept us fully informed on their progress, and did a great job. Our driveway, walkway, and front-door entryway look much better, with tripping hazards gone. Very happy with the OBA's work!

I had a great visit with Sean Melquest who was able to correctly assess my issues during his first visit. The team that came out to perform the work was also very professional and treated me with the upmost respect. I cannot recommend this company enough to anyone who has any similar issues. The work was also completed in the quoted timeframe and the worksite was cleaned completely afterwards. This company was very helpful and greatly appreciated! – Ann Campbell Whitley

We had Amanda Bradburn come out to our house for a foundation issue and she was the absolute best about it. Not only on time and very professional but straight to the point which I appreciated. She is a straight shooter who will get you moving in the right direction. She went above and beyond to make sure our problem was taken care of, not just the portion she had to do for her job. I would only recommend her to come see what you need. Thanks Amanda!
