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 was very helpful in explaining what was going on with the foundation of our home. He walked us through different options available and how each option worked (or didn't work) for our specific situation. I now have a better understanding of our home and the steps we can take to fix the problem.

Toy and his team were excellent to work with. They were tasked with stabilizing 3 buildings consisting of 12 condos. The team communicated multiple times during the day with management and made personal contact with residents to keep everyone informed of their progress. We were met with some challenges (not the fault of Groundworks) but the team managed the issues professionally with care and concern for the community. I couldn't have asked for any better service than what we received from Toy, his crew and Groundworks.

TarHeel Basement Systems is your go to for crawlspace issues and foundation repairs. From ordering the free inspection all the way through the end of the job my experience was smooth. Their communication was on point and if I ever had questions throughout the process I was able to call and get piece of mind. They worked around my schedule and I even had to push back my install date for personal reasons, they worked with me through it all, no questions asked. Rob Philips was the inspector and gave me a very detailed report of what was going on and talked me through the best solutions. The job site crew, Ian A., Ian B., Ethan, and Justin were very efficient and personable. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They made a stressful situation for me and my family very smooth and I’m thankful for their work!

Excellent company to do your foundation work. They were priced very reasonably. They did their work in 1 day. Their workers were very professional and kept at the job all day. The estimate process was fast, and communications with the company was very good. They called ahead to let me know when they were expecting to arrive. Very pleased with their work.

Definitely worth the call and trusting them with our home! 10/10 isn’t enough for them!

Huge shout out and thanks to David Sycz! He was amazing throughout our initial quote/planning meeting. I personally appreciated his patience and acknowledgement of our questions and suggestions (as we'd already done quite a bit of research about what we wanted and the products and methods we'd prefer). Thanks, David! Looking forward to working with you and Ohio Basement Authority soon!

Levi came out to my house and designed a solution for a complicated garage water problem. I was initially concerned by the troubled look on his face! But he explained everything. He carefully explained the cause of the water drainage and the effect of the problem on my garage floor. The problem is bad, but he went back to the office and designed a viable solution. I initially called a concrete guy who offered the WRONG solution for 3x the AFS cost! I’m glad I called AFS – but I should have called them first. Protecting my property investment is important to me. Thank you AFS!
