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.

We used Alpha Foundations from Tallahassee, and the experience was exceptional! They came out the day after Thanksgiving and explained everything they were doing that day and explained a few different options for us. Rich was very professional and easy to talk with and had answers for everything we were concerned about. They scheduled the work to be done in two weeks, and Zack and his team were thorough and got the work done the same day and left the work area clean! We are very very happy with Alpha Foundations and will recommend them to anyone needing Foundation work done. Thank you, Rick, Zack & Omar!

Worked with Justin S, he was awesome! Helped us understand the issues we were having and how to solve them permanently! He was fast and efficient with his inspection, but took his time when explaining everything to us. He was also easy to get ahold of after the initial consultation.

It was a big job to level our sidewalk, but Rob and Trevor handled it like the pros they are. Plus, they both started and finished ahead of schedule, and they even paused working to move the truck when the street sweepers finally came by. Above and beyond. Thank you Groundworks!

John and Jerrid both were super helpful. They gave us plenty of information and even answered the questioned we thought that they would laugh at. 😃 They told us what they would fix and do personally. We felt very understood with our concerns. Loved working with them to set up our appointment time. HUGE PLUS in our eyes they didn't sit at our home until 1030pm forcing us to buy.

We had a garage floor that had a corner dropping. I also had a toolshed with a similar problem. Finally, we had a poorly laid driveway that had horrible cracks. Groundworks created a plan for the work. The garage floor was fully lifted, the shed is level again and the cracks are sealed in the driveway to give us a little longer before having to have a whole new one poured. The crew were professional. We had to have the job done in parts due to snow on the driveway. They were great about helping us schedule. Very happy to recommend them.

The crew that came out to install pump in crawlspace and do some repair work on my foundation was awesome. Ricardo S. kept me in the loop on the work with detailed clear information and he was always open to my questions. The crew: Zack M, Alija M., and Uriel V.) were down to earth, professional, and trust worthy. They cleaned up everything nice and neat. I am pleased with the job and will use Groundworks again. Shout out to Mel for initial inspection!

This review is very overdue. We had our basement work done in early September, Adam and selvin were great to work with. They were fast, attentive and informative providing updates every step of the way. We are in Asheville North Carolina and two weeks after the work was completed we were hit by hurricane helene. Previously with even a moderate rain we would find water in our basement. As you probably know this was a devastating amount of rain, and our basement is dry. The battery backup on the sump pump was perfect! When we lost power the pump kept running. We cannot thank Adam, Selvin and team enough. 100% recommend!
