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.

Alpha Foundations exceeded every expectation we had for repairing our concrete pool deck! From the very first call, their team was responsive, professional, and genuinely invested in solving our problem quickly. We were especially impressed with Alex, who came out for the inspection the very next day. He was incredibly thorough, clearly explained what was causing the issues, and walked us through exactly how they would fix it. His knowledge and friendly demeanor put us completely at ease. The real standout, though, was the crew that performed the work—Jake and Josh. These guys were absolute rock stars! They arrived on time, worked efficiently without cutting any corners, and left the site cleaner than they found it. The quality of their workmanship is outstanding, and the pool deck now looks better than it did when it was new. If you're dealing with any concrete or foundation issues, do yourself a favor and call Alpha Foundations. Their speed, professionalism, and attention to detail are second to none. Huge thanks to Alex, Jake, and Josh—you guys are the best! Highly recommended!

I received several quotes for my foundation issues. The first was high for the limited scope that they were going to do, the second one told me that I needed to hire an engineer and then I got the quote from AFS. While these type of repairs are expensive to do they worked with me to come up with a plan that will take care of my issues, but that could work with a budget. Jesse, Selvin and Smith performed my repairs. They explained all that they were doing and even when we ran into an issue they addressed it and I was very satisfied with the work that was done.

I couldn't be happier with the work that Rene and his crew (Manuel, Manuel, and Ramiro) did fixing the foundation on my house. Great communication and I dare say that the garage was actually cleaner than it was before he arrived. They even set up a plastic sheet to keep the concrete dust away from where it shouldn't be. He explained everything that was being done and the reasons behind his work. Thanks!

We have a bermed concrete house in a hillside, and a small storage unit at one side had started leaking through the floor. A heavy rain or snow melting day would leave a major puddle, so I worried about it getting worse, and mold. I saw the Groundworks ad on TV. (Good grief.) I called, had a quickly schedules visitation, an assessment, and a very fast turnaround with workers installing a sump system in 2 days of work. I have yet to go through a heavy rain, but I am very impressed with this crew. Dorothy Bradley

An exceptional company with employees that are a pleasure to work with. Colton Mohr with his teammates Isaac and Jerome did a great job. On time, clean cut, no foul language, and excellent communication. I’ve never had workmen leave my home as clean as it was when they arrived. From my first contact with Tim Canning who did the estimate I was confident that this group of people were the best most trustworthy choice for solving my basement flooding issues. This is the best home repair experience I’ve ever had. Thanks Groundworks!
