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.

First impressions experienced with sales consultant advisor, Daniel Raymond, were excellent. He was professional, thorough, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He offered suggestions and explained the process. Very pleasant experience. He explained the work and quote and scheduled the work in a timely manner. He helped with a great financing option to make it easier on the payout. The day of the project the techs arrived right on time as scheduled. Luke and Anthony went over the work to be performed and explained everything to my satisfaction. I even added some work based on solutions to a few other problems. They amended the work order and explained the price difference from the original bid. All quite reasonable. They kept me informed throughout the day on choices to be made and helpful suggestions. Luke and Anthony were consistently pleasant and professional and made sure I understood it was important to them that i be satisfied with the work. They finished in a timely manner, when they estimated they would be done. They walked the completed job with me to assure of my satisfaction. And they left the work sites perfectly clean. The following day I was contacted by a friendly lady named Summer who called from the office to make sure I was satisfied. Not only do I recommend this company-I will definitely use them again on a future project we already discussed. And if I have my preference I would use the same people who worked with me on this project. Bill G.

My house has foundation issues I had a professional estimator come out from groundworks Colby and Alex Colby was very professional and explained in detailed and thoroughly and was very friendly and understanding of how stressful it is to have a house with issues especially foundation issues I was impressed because I've dealt with many companies before with bad negative outcomes and experiences this company and Colby was and still is trying to help and go above and beyond they have excellent communication skills and for someone like me who asks many questions he had no problem with communication answering questions and they understand how stressful these type of foundation problems are the communication is by far the best I've seen and I've had to deal with other companies several times over the last couple years this company is definitely one of the best they have computer explanation which is simple the answer questions they did a very very detailed thorough estimates of the house condition that took a couple hours which is good because other companies I was lucky if they spent 15 minutes to somehow come up with an estimate the other companies are not good – compared to this company these guys generally seem like they want to help they did a proper inspection unlike other companies communication here is best they explain things that he doesn't have a problem answering the questions no matter how many I've got and they're trying to help with finance instead of leaving me stranded like other companies they generally seem to care and this is quite rare I highly recommend this company and Colby and Alex are very professional and top notch!

Richard, Deonte, and Javaun did an amazing job. They stayed late, and worked really hard every minute they were here. They constantly communicated what they were doing and proceeded with care as if it was their own home. We are extremely satisfied with their work. Great group of guys and would recommend them to anyone!!!!! Our garage could have collapsed at any minute and they were so careful to make sure they and my family were both safe.

Everette was a pleasure to work with today. Unfortunately after he arrived we discovered that Ohio Basement Authority does not do the kind of work needed for my project. Everette was able to offer some suggestions, and he took some pictures which he offered to forward to some contractors who may be able to complete that type of project. Thanks, Everette!
