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.

My husband and I had foundation systems of Michigan come out to do our crawlspace. The installers that came were very professional cleaned up after themselves and did a very good job. The installers names were Jonah Hamilton, Logan Dean, Bryant Dozier, and Kiko Hartley. All four of these men did a great job and were very professional. I would definitely recommend having them out to do work at anyone’s home!

AFS hit a home run when they hired Tony Marlowe. Tony came to our home in the afternoon and stayed late in the afternoon trying to save our outdated sump pump. It was beyond repair. Tony came back two days later and installed a new one. Tony was very knowledgeable and very mannerly I will always ask for Tony for any of our services

Zach Sanders was very professional, courteous and personable. He called the day prior to the appt. and 30 minutes before arriving. He succinctly described his inspection and gave us a "thumbs up" for our first annual check-up. He also chatted up my husband about their shared interest in SCUBA diving. A++++

Derrick (sp?) performed service at our rental. He was incredibly professional, well spoken, informative, and polite. He really made us feel comfortable with what he was doing and that we could count on his work. I'd be happy to have him and Groundworks back in our home for any service, and I'll be sure to recommend them to friends!

I had an appointment today to evaluate some structural concerns with my home, and the experience exceeded expectations. The inspector, Adam Chaney, was extremely thorough and professional throughout the entire process. He took the time to clearly explain what he was seeing, what the underlying issues were, and how they could be addressed. What stood out most was the level of detail and patience – this was not a quick in-and-out visit. He spent a couple of hours walking through everything with me, and made sure I fully understood the situation before wrapping up. It’s rare to come across someone who combines technical knowledge with strong communication skills. Adam represents the company very well. Honestly, give this guy a raise or something – he’s outstanding. I would absolutely recommend this company based on my experience.
