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.

I had a sump pump installation done by Andrew Latour. He was professional, personable, knowledgeable and incredibly quick. His explanation of the new system was clear and he left the job site clean and in great condition. Groundworks should be very proud to have an individual like Andrew representing the company. I can't recommend strongly enough.

From start to finish Michael and his crew were outstanding. As a manager of Sherwin Williams, I see all types of construction crews and these guys are hands down the most polite, professional, trustworthy guys I’ve ever met. The communication as to what they were doing and letting us know time frames were spot on. These guys worked like a well oiled machine with the final product turning out phenomenal. They replaced several floor joists in our bedroom due to moisture issues , installed pumps and drainage lines, then encapsulated the entire crawl space. We’ve had several companies out to try to fix our issues with very sub par work. Not these guys. They walked in like an army of Spartans and took care of business. If you use anyone else besides these guys, I’m sorry.

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!

Smooth experience with Alpha Foundations. They did the permitting for us and were professional. We installed spacers for our crawl space and pillars for an exterior wall to keep it from leaning. The installation crew of Nick, Nick and James were very professional and tidy. Bradley our rep was really nice and kept up updated throughout.

We cannot say enough good things about the help and care Ernest Vigil gave us from the start of our crawl space project to the end. He returned our calls and emails promptly and helped guide us each step of the way. He went above and beyond when a problem arouse to find local help to quickly come out to help address and fix the problem. Mathew from Puget Sound Water Rescue one of the local company is a good company to have on call. And your team members from Georgia were outstanding. We have several neighbors who have watched the care and quality we received with ground works and have said they will be the first company they will call when they are ready to have work done on their homes. Thank you, Ernest and the rest of your team for treating us like you would a member of your own family. It has been a pleasure working with you. Cindy and Alan D.
