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.

Paul, Yughurtha and Walter did excellent work at our home! They were friendly, prompt, and kept us appraised about our project as the installation was unfolding. They were very helpful with the information we needed to make some decisions at the last minute. We appreciated their knowledge and craftsmanship. We had a sump pump, radon mitigation system, partial basement gutter installed and cement work done. We also want to thank Caleigh who worked with us throughout the initial stages of planning. Great job!

We just finished our waterproofing installation. WOW! Miguel A did an outstanding job leading Luis S and Gerso G. They were amazing installers! They were kind and polite and helpful. They cared about my belongings in the basement. They did a lot of hard work in one day to be ready for the city inspector the next morning. They cemented and cleaned up the next afternoon. A lot of good work was accomplished timely due to their dedication. Miguel also did an excellent job communicating with me about the job itself, how the system & sump pump work, and maintenance. They are a top notch crew! Thank you!!!!

I will continue to recommend/refer to Grant and FRS for anyone needing foundation work options.

We bought a home that had a 1960s bomb shelter built into it. It has been the bane of our existence because it was always wet being it was under our breezeway and just below basement level. We hired Groundworks to help us waterproof the room which we could step into via our basement. Hopefully, this will be the fix to keep us dry for years to come. It looks like a different space that is no longer gross, wet, and mucky. I cannot praise Josh and Kendrick enough. They really had a challenge in this project. I am sure they are still sore today. The worked really hard with great communication. They were professional, just plain awesome guys! Thank you!

We had work done last year by AFS and it exceeded our expectations. During our annual warranty inspection, it was discovered that we needed additional foundation supports. Yet again AFS exceeded our expectations. Yoni Morales and Alex Garcia were very professional. They completed the work quickly and cleaned up the work site when they were done. Yoni and Edel Sanchez made sure that I was updated during the entire process. I couldn't be more pleased with AFS.
