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 had our driveway done by Alpha Foundations. First, Zack did our initial inspection & presented the findings in a clear manner. Now to the work itself. Tory & Blake did a wonderful job – they have a great work ethic, kept us informed during the entire process and cleaned up the area after completion. We are very pleased with the result. It is our pleasure to give them a 10 out of 10!

OMG! FAST! I’m a short term rental Airbnb host. I had gas leak on my water heater. The gas company shut the valve off and RED tagged it! I had a house FULL of guests that were at work. I GOOGLED and found A1. Took a chance and called. I managed to get squeezed in same day! The young man came in to fix the problem just before the guests came in from work! I never had to alert my guests about the issue and didn’t have to lose in my reviews! A COMPLETE WIN! A1 lives up to the hype!! My technician was AMAZING! He shared pieces of jerky for my fur babies! He was professional, unbiased, and clean. He was in and out! My boys needs a raise or promotion to lead technician or something!

I had the pleasure of working Everett. He came to my house promptly and was extremely helpful and eager to help. Unfortunately, my situation was a bit unique, and his group was unable to take on the job. Luckily, Everett knew someone who could help and put me in contact with him. Although we did not do business together, Everett went above and beyond to help ensure that I was taken care of. -Erich

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.

Kevin Sweeney from Ohio base Authority was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He was always available to answer questions or return a call, which made my stressful situation much easier to navigate. Kevin took the time to really listen to the concerns about my home and gave thoughtful advice about the problem instead of rushing through the appointment. He explained the situation clearly, offered practical suggestions and made sure all options were reviewed so an informed decision can be made. What stood out most was how he went above and beyond to ensure everything was understood that the best choice could be made for the situation specifically. Highly recommend Kevin at Ohio basement authorities for his professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine willingness to help those in need of this type of service !!

Recently had a great experience with a home inspection for their services and look forward to working with them for a new foundation. They responded super quickly to set an appointment and Logan was very patient with me when I forgot what day it was 🫣 Logan and Jonas were very polite during the inspection and really did a thorough job and even went under the house into the crawl space. Then they sat down with me to discuss options and numbers
