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.

We called Mount Valley last Friday to get an estimate on some foundation repairs that have gotten progressively worse. They scheduled an appointment that day for Wednesday of next week. Dino Rhoads was the technician who came to assess the issue. He called to let me know exactly when he would be arriving. He was very considerate and polite and had a vast amount of knowledge. The assessment took several hours and I was amazed at how thorough he was in getting exact details so that he could best create a plan for us. When he finished looking at, around, and under the house, we sat for at least an hour where he shared pictures of what he saw and explained in detail what they indicated. I never got the feeling like he was trying to sell me anything that I didn't specifically ask for and need. Dino showed excellent professionalism, and an exceptional knowledge of our situation and the best ways to remedy them. I'm very impressed! I would absolutely recommend their services! And, ask for Dino!

We had Chris H. from GroundWorks come out and he walked us through our issues. Very professional and knowledgeable when explaining we'd need piers to stabilize a corner of our garage that was falling. Richard and his crew came out and did an amazing job with the install. Couldn't be happier with how the whole process turned out.

Jarad Estes came out to my house and after doing a thorough inspection of my property he showed me everything that was needing repair and and was very informative about everything that was needed to be done, within minutes he gave me a detailed estimate and quote for the job. As a first time home buyer , I was nervous about repairs to the foundation , but Jarad reinsured me that I was in good hand and foundation recovery was the way to go. And also the Forman Willam have lie kept me up to date every step of the way during the installation. Thanks to foundation recovery my leak has stoped and I have no water in my house.
