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.

Tony Marlowe was the serviceman who service my system. Very professional, takes time to answer questions and explains what the process is. I’ve used AFS for encapsulating my crawl space, support system and a sumo pump after years of trying others. I am well pleased with AFS and recommend.

The start of our experience as rocky, but that was out of Groundworks control – or perhaps could be chalked up to growing pains of the company. That said, their work has been phenomenal, and we're truly very happy we had the work completed when we did. Ashton came to check on our supports and adjust things recently, and he's also gone out of his way to help us understand how a project we're hoping to undertake could affect the foundation. He even hoped on a call with our structural engineer to provide insight and information. This was completely beyond what we would have expected but genuinely kind. We're very grateful.

Groundworks is an amazing company with great customer service! I called and scheduled for my free inspection and Stephanie was able to arrange it for the next day. I received text message reminders and Joseph, the inspector, called me in the morning prior to his arrival to also confirm the inspection. He was running a little late but again called in advance and sent a text message letting me know what time to expect him. Once he arrived, he listened thoroughly and walked the property with my husband and I. The inspection was smooth and explained our home’s foundation flaws which were minimal. No immediate repairs were needed, I especially appreciated his honesty. I recommend this company if you are looking for foundation repairs, crawl space repairs, or concrete lifting. My husband and I are honestly impressed on how well the inspection went and the professionalism the inspector and staff work and communicate. Thank you!

Gaston and Santos really fixed a really tough situation due to some miscommunication with the office. Santos Cruz, Larry Robinson Sr, Tarik, Desean Pole and Joel Grade left our property in great shape. The other crew worked hard including Keilan and Shane. We had to iron out some issues, but the GM Ryan was gracious and responded to our feedback. Also, Aric Banks was the MVP providing a good estimate and working to communicate throughout the process.

Taylor Smith came out today to inspect my system. He was early after calling to verify it was ok. He was friendly, professional and very thorough. He gave me advice about my system and air quality. He left me with a quote for a system to purify and dehumidify the air downstairs. I will probably do that but there was no pressure to do it immediately. All in all, Taylor was awesome. Thank you!
