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.

This is a long overdue review of our experience working with matvey (now groundworks) this year. We had the unfortunate experience of needing fairly major foundation work done on our new (to us) rambler home in Woodinville. The project was large and challenging, adding 45 push piers, mostly installed within the crawlspace, which had tight access. The team was a pleasure to work with – Zac was professional and communicated clearly about the scope and requirements of the project. The construction team, Alex, Luis, and Kender, worked incredibly hard under tricky conditions. Alex made a point of giving us regular updates on, and sharing pictures of, their progress. Foundation problems are not a fun thing to have to deal with…. But we are very satisfied with the experience working with matvey.

Marc took his time with our annual inspection. Cleaned out our sump pump, checked out every nook and cranny, made some recommendations with no pressure, explained everything to me clearly and went on his way. I feel good knowing that everything is in good shape and ready for another year.

I am very pleased with the job completed by AFS. Everything was done as promised and on time. Casey did a great job giving me the total price, explaining the process, providing the timeline and keeping me up to date. David, Bobby, Zeus and David did a great job installing the pilings and Cameron and Eric did a great job with poly. Everyone on both crews were professional, friendly, and informative. They are true ambassadors for you company. All of the employees kept me up to date on timelines, the process and what to expect. They treated my property like their own and cleaned up better than any group that has ever done work for me. I selected AFS because of what I had been told by word of mouth by others. After having AFS do the work, I now understand why everyone talks so highly of AFS. Your people do a great job and go the extra mile. Great job and I will recommend AFS to those that need your services in the future.

After months of hell attempting to work with a local small business to repair the crawlspace in my nearly 50 year old home, AquaGuard demonstrated why quality and integrity matter. Jim was extremely thorough with his inspection and took care to find a financing solution that worked with my budget and still managed to ensure that my home would be healthy and stable. Financing was a breeze. Joseph & Steven did a wonderful job converting my musty, molding, sagging crawlspace into an underground Taj Mahal. It's absolutely beautiful, and as a 6th generation baker, a stable kitchen is a requirement in any home I reside. Every person I had the pleasure of interacting with treated my home and little family with respect and care. Thank you for being the reminder I needed that there truly are good people in the world. AquaGuard has proven why they are clearly the best in the business.

Alpha Foundations, especially inspector Justin Hurd, is our go to when we need solutions and quotes. (We buy old homes in the Jax area and flip them to revitalize the community). So we run into foundation issues all the time with these homes. Alpha Foundations is always on speed dial for us. Justin Hurd was an amazing communicator, he showed up on time and gave us good details on-site. Afterwards he emailed us the inspection report in even greater detail & included drawings. It's so helpful to us and Justin is great to work with! Thank you!

Nick came out to give us a quote for French drains today. This was the third company that we had out as we wanted at least three quotes/recommendations. Nick gave us a thorough walkthrough of the plan and was so patient with our questions. His plan made the most sense for our situation. Nick made us feel comfortable and confident enough to move forward with scheduling. Thank you Nick!
