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.

Unfortunately we were among many in our neighborhood who needed foundation repair. We were evaluated and put on the schedule with a month time and a surprisingly low quote after I had been hearing my neighbors quote at least 3 times what we were quoted. The crew that came were prompt, checking in by text. They removed then replanted some shrubs and removed a small tree. They repaired a concrete hole in the driveway. Over all cleaned up nicely removing trash and sweeping dirt from the driveway. I hope I do not have to but I would hire them again. Highly recommend.

Nathan Goddard came in was very knowledgeable. Let me know exactly what I needed and what it would cost. The crew did an amazing job as well. They don’t sub out work which was a big one for me. It seems the other waterproofing companies in Pittsburgh do and that and it didn’t sit well with me. I highly recommend Nathan and his team!

Some times you have a company come out and the employees just stand out and do great work and deserve recognition. The crew from AFS Anthony, Devin, and Hunter were absolutely amazing. Anthony stayed in constant contact with me, from before they arrived each morning to each time they were leaving the property to get supplies, to when they were completing each work day. The professionalism from the three workers truly shows they take pride in their work. They kept their job site clean and managed throughout the day. Thank you for the respect and professionalism.
