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.

Tim was very thorough and efficient. He was here on time, considerate of my privacy, even offering to help with moving some heavy items back into their original position. He explained what he had done and alerted me to possible changes in the foundation. I am more than satisfied with his demeanor and efforts. Ralland (Ron) Fortier

I had an issue with my sump pump and Caleb and Tyler came out to replace my pump with a new one. They arrived on time and were very professional and friendly. When they completed the installation they went over exactly was done and answered any questions I had. They cleaned up the area they were working in and I couldn't be happier with their service. Caleb was especially thorough and wanted to ensure I was satisfied with the job. Groundworks is the best investment for your home if you have issues with water in your basement. I would highly recommend their business for any of your waterproofing needs.

Working with Alpha Foundations was an exceptionally positive experience from start to finish. The project manager, Joshua, came out to look at our cracking concrete patio, diagnosed the issue, and had a cost-effective solution for us. He also provided all the information we needed to get a quick approval from our HOA. The team that did the work, Tory & Blake, were on time, efficient, and highly skilled. Not only did they stabilize the concrete patio using their foam injection process, they spent a lot of time caulking and smoothing all the cracks (literally on their hands & knees) doing a meticulous job. The process worked so well, it actually lifted one section and eliminated a 1" difference in height so no more trip hazard either. This company clearly invests in a high quality product and skilled professionals. We are very glad we found them.

I scheduled BAU to come out and do and inspection and confirmed that the misc cracks were being caused by settling foundation. The inspector, Chance, was outstanding making sure to explain what was happening and how to correct it. Our house needed 16 push piers to stabilize parts of the house that were settling up to 1 3/4”. I’ve never been more stressed out. Enter Luis, Ken, and a few others whose names escape me. They were fantastic completing the work in about a week. It’s hard to explain exactly what was done, but I ca. tell you that these guys know what they’re doing. BAU also did some concrete work that also turned out great. Im extremely happy with my decision to use BAU/Grounworks and would not hesitate to use them again or refer them to others needing g this type of work. Well done! and thank you!

Did everything wanted/expected and more. The last inspection I had was by Steven Fortae he was extremely knowledgeable was able to answer all my questions and explain the why behind the answers. He took his time laser measured everything and explained what to look for outside and I side the house. He even showed me the area of my house were it was engineered wrong (built in 1966). Fortunately for me I already fixed that and he explained what I did right and why and how it should have been designed originally.
