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.

Craig, Nate and Sam did a great job on our garage wall. They took precautions to the surroundings of the work area and got the job done. They needed to remove multiple shrubs to access the wall and when they were done, they placed them back where they had been without us asking them too. We’re very grateful for the job they did!

The AFS team did a great job, and did everything they promised. Dustin worked diligently with me to be sure the contract specified the things I wanted. Nathan, Ben, and Tyler worked continuously to ensure each task was completed until the entire job was complete, and once done they made sure everything was cleaned up. They were professional, pleasant, even cheerful while working, What a nice surprise.

I was very pleased with the service I got for water proofing my basement. They were able to do it all in one day. I feel so much more comfortable now. They explained things as they were doing the work. I took pictures of how it was being done. They were pleasant. They were on time coming and they stayed until it was done. They came from Twinsburg. So happy I called them. Steven was my person that came and I worked with on the entire process. The guys that came to do the work was Jaden, Nelson, Oscar, and Gabriel. Jaden was the right there everytime I had a question.. I am not sorry I contacted Ohio Basement authority. You would be pleased if you had them. Thank you.
