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.

Chase Clemens came out to the house and spent several hours doing a detailed inspection and analysis of our basement. He presented all the possible solutions, pros and cons of each, and pitched a thoughtful recommendation. We were ultimately sold when he sang multiple verses of “Baby Shark” including the dance. Really brought it home. It went something like…. Baby shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Baby shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Baby shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Baby shark Mommy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Mommy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Mommy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Mommy shark Daddy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Daddy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Daddy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Daddy shark Grandma shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandma shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandma shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandma shark Grandpa shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandpa shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandpa shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandpa shark

I recommend Bay Area Underpinning for an important reason: honesty. After careful inspection, their agent, Richard, told me the truth, which was that my crawlspace was fine, that I had no problem with moisture or settling. And then he took the time to show me why. He could have tried to sell me on doing a lot of work, but he didn't. This kind of honesty is impressive! Call Bay Area Underpinning to inspect your crawlspace. You can trust them. If they say it needs work, hire them to do it. I am almost sorry I couldn't!

Jonathan came to our home about a month ago to inspect our basement due to it being leaky when it rains. We tried everything in past from epoxy injections to drylock paints and nothing ever worked. The design that he came up with was the permanent solution we needed. What made us feel most comfortable about moving forward with this scope of work was the warranty foundation recovery systems puts on their waterproofing.

Wow! What a great company! Unexpectedly, we had water seeping into our basement. Jeff came promptly to look at the situation and worked out a treatment plan on the spot. It was easy to trust his plan because Jeff had knowledgeable answers to all my questions, and took the time to educate me about the issues we were facing. Installers Tosin and Francis arrived within a few days and completed some indoor demolition before knitting together the foundation crack and installing a fine sump pump system. Although they were working in tight quarters, both Tosin and Francis were pleasant and friendly; and knowledgeably answered my continued questions. They cared to make sure I understood the work they were doing and how our new system functioned. Where they had to dig a ditch through the lawn they made a thoughtful repair and even added grass seed – and inside, they did a great job of cleaning up, too. I will enthusiastically recommend Groundworks to our neighbours on either side who have issues similar to ours. We were very impressed – two thumbs up/five stars and two big smiles!

This is a Rock Star group! They proved they know exactly what they are doing! David McDaniel provided an estimate, so professional and polite. Very knowledgeable and took time to fully explain the process needed to fix our concrete issue. Daryn Holder showed up on time and ready to roll! It was like a Maestro and smiling crew. These folks know exactly what they are doing, and they get the problems fixed, all the while with a smile on their face. I will recommend this company to everyone. This company was a breath of fresh air for our community, hands down the best. Total Rock Stars!

My experience with AFS was both professional and stress free, from start to finish. It started with field inspector Mike coming in and reviewing what I was trying to accomplish, and then helping me develop a budget that I was comfortable with. It ended with installers Cody, Brady, and Aiden coming in and doing an excellent job of incapsulating my crawl space. All and all, this was one of my best experience working with contractors on a project.

A long standing moisture problem in our basement was tackled by a team from Groundworks. They were very professional, finished on time and left the site orderly and as clean as possible.
