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.

The installation team (Robert, Keaton, & Terrance) were extremely easy to work with and had great communication. Ronnie and Bobby were good as well. The only reason for the 4 star review was the lack of communication from the initial salesman after the sale. Apparently, what he sold me was not sufficient for the square footage so they had to change the entire layout and add an additional pump which they added in the final price. Another issue, they hired a plumber to move my water heater away from the wall. That company busted my unit while moving it and tried to have me pay to have a new one installed. None of this was communicated to me along the way…not from the plumber or Tarheel Basement. After fighting with a few different managers from TB on the phone, they finally did the right thing and “covered” the replacement heater, although it ($1,695.68) was figured back into my final invoice as well. All in all, I think they did a good job and should be thankful they have a good installation crew. Otherwise, my review would be much different.

We had a great experience with the Groundworks team that came to stabilize our foundation. From the job foremen (Luis G. and Ken H.) to the installers (Mark P. and Rudy), the guys were prompt, courteous, and very hardworking. Luis was a great communicator and always kept me apprised of everything the crew was doing each day, including showing me the equipment and explaining the processes for both the underground and above ground work that was being done. We also really appreciated that the guys made sure to keep the inside areas clean when they were going in and out of the house, and also cleaned up the outside areas where all their equipment had been. We feel fortunate that we had this great group of guys assigned to our job!

John and Jerrid both were super helpful. They gave us plenty of information and even answered the questioned we thought that they would laugh at. 😃 They told us what they would fix and do personally. We felt very understood with our concerns. Loved working with them to set up our appointment time. HUGE PLUS in our eyes they didn't sit at our home until 1030pm forcing us to buy.

My experience with AFS was excellent. Caleb came out to look at my issue in my basement and had multiple options to resolve my issue in no time. After we had it scheduled a team of installers came and performed the work perfectly. The team also kept me update throughout the project with any concerns or questions the had. They had my job done in two days and it looks and functions great. I couldn’t have had a better experience with the company and the team members. I would recommend AFS to any of my friends and family.
