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 did not include a photo because the photos you see in their ads are very accurate. I was a property manager for 20 years and I have never had anyone do a better job than this team. Yes, it was expensive, but they solved a water intrusion problem and made the crawl space clean enough to sleep in. Our crawl space entrance is in an awkward closet and they protected the floors and kept everything immaculate while digging a drainage trench, installing a thick, clean barrier and a sump pump.

Carlos and Julian were very knowledgable about the process of installing piers and working with the city inspector. They were very courteous and helped educate us on how the system works. Great job! The second step of the process was performed by Raymond and Brian who specialize in the polyfill and leveling the concrete. These guys were also very meticulous about their work and were equally as good as the rest of the Aquaguard team.

We had five piers installed last spring to stabilize our garage and family room. The only thing that we had to do was plant grass (they also planted grass seed before they left but I wanted to make sure it grew in thicker) and by summer ypu couldn't tell that anything had been done. They sent an inspector, Ryan Howard, back to our house today to make sure that the stabilization worked (it did). They will come back the next two years to check their work. We're very happy with the work they did and with their follow-up.

Cory came to our home to evaluate the radon situation, explained in detail what would be required for mitigation and had us scheduled in promptly. We were on a cancellation list so they managed to fit us in a couple of days earlier than expected. Brady and Stefan arrived on time, provided us with a rundown of what we could expect during the installation and kept us in the loop throughout the process which only took about 4 hours to complete. They were very professional, thorough and left the work areas clean and tidy. Paul popped in at the end of the job to 'inspect' and advised it was a job well done. Thanks Brady and Stefan!! 👍 If you are looking to deal with a radon or leaky basement issue and want a dependable, reliable and professional team for the job, we highly recommend Groundworks. Thanks guys!!

From the annual inspection, Nick suggested we consider adding foundation wall insulation in the crawlspace as we did not have any under the flooring and we did have this on our list to check into. He was professional and thorough. Now the hard part, the install…team was lead by Nestor Bautista and they were on time, explained/showed exactly what they would do and how. They were all friendly, professional, cleaned up completely and finished a bit quicker than expected. Nestor then walked us through the install and provided pictures of all the crawl space areas. Now the payoff, felt almost immediately warmer in den area and am sure this will provide more efficient HVAC for us. We are a Tarheel customer for over 8 years now, from Stephen Peterson to their regular service techs, Nick Harmon, to their install teams…we will be a customer for life.
