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.

Lead man Johnny Ketrun, Michael Jordan (they call him MJ but it’s not the famous one), and last but not least Michael Sinard can to raise the floor joists on the west side of our home. All introduced themselves on arrival and competed the entire job in under 5 hours. Both my wife and I were very impressed about how organized and professionally they went about completing their work and cleaning up afterward. I was given a library of pictures documenting the work done. Great team!

I have used Select Basement which is now Groundworks for years and across several properties. In NJ there are only two outfits that deal with basements. The other one are incredibly overpriced and do not give any confidence that they are honest. Groundworks dealt with pump installs, maintenance, crack sealing with epoxy and redoing basement wells. Overall they are a consistent and quality service provider and part of my go to team for my various basements.

Owen did an outstanding job assessing our foundation needs and clearly communicating the different repair options available to us. He was extremely personable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy throughout the entire process, which made a potentially stressful situation much easier to navigate. On the final visit, he even brought his boss along to further assess our home and help solidify a repair plan. Their combined expertise and thorough explanations gave us a lot of confidence in our decision to move forward. We ultimately chose to proceed with a Foundation Recovery Systems solution, and we truly appreciated the time, care, and professionalism Owen showed every step of the way. Highly recommend!

We had our crawl space encapsulated due to water and moisture damage. The crew of David P, James C, & Michael James worked well together and took care of everything that needed to be done. The work was done in a timely professional manner and they left our property very clean. Also the crew was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions (we had alot of them). We are very happy with the work done and we recommend that you call Tarheel Basement Co.

Just had part of my house jacked up with 7 jacks. Sorry I don't know terminology. Weather was cold with one day being 15⁰. Did not expect workers to show up but they did. And worked all day to finish the job. MARK, BRANDON AND MARCOS was magnificent. They did an excellent job and did it quickly. They were kind and courteous. They did not leave a mess which I was afraid they would. I will be recommending Ground Works to my neighbors. Justus Stangl was very informative. Making the process understandable. He answered all our questions very knowledgeable. Process was a great experience. Thank you.
