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.

Excellent work! I found Groundworks on Google and after reading through all the reviews, I decided to hire them. I live up north in Ontario, CA in a Century Home and after a very intense snowy winter, water was starting to seep into the basement. The snow was melting quickly and we were receiving a lot of rain. I was thrilled to have a rep come out within the week to assess the situation and provide an on the spot quote. They seemed knowledgeable and made me feel confident that they would get the job done well. Work began only about a week or 2 weeks after. The crew sent to complete the job were fantastic! Adebayo & Vandyke were excellent to work with. The project was given an estimate of 2 days from start to finish, but they actually finished in 1 day! Throughout the day they kept me in the loop and had me approve each new step. They also brought the necessary mats and plastic to keep the site clean; everything was sealed in so that dust was not entering the rest of the house, which was a big concern of mine. Once the work was done, they spent quite awhile cleaning up, the place was left in great condition. They actually forgot to give me the manual for the new sump pump, however a few days later Adebayo & Vandyke came out of their way to drop that off for me; now that's service! I would absolutely hire again or recommend Groundworks, they did an exceptional job.

I was completely satisfied with the entire process of having a new sump pump with battery back-up installed by Groundworks. Ronald and Remi were both very professional, and courteous when they came to quote the job. And Lucio and the crew were also very professional and courteous. I was impressed with Lucios' experience and workmanship and friendly manner (same for the workers). Lots of attention to detail and they left the worksite completely cleaned up. I was completely happy with the whole job.

I had a great experience working with Emmett W. as my service tech from AFS. From the moment he arrived, he was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly took pride in his work. He took the time to thoroughly explain everything that needed to be done, answered all of my questions without rushing, and made sure I felt confident in the process. He approached the job with care and precision, and it was obvious he genuinely cares about doing things the right way. As for AFS, the company as a whole exceeded my expectations. They have always come to the rescue when my home was experiencing any issues. If you’re considering foundation or crawl space work, I highly recommend AFS—and if you’re lucky enough to get Emmett as your technician, you’ll be in great hands.

Whitney Rose, what a pleasant and thorough inspector. Her information was explained in detail. She seems to enjoy her job. She made me fill like we have known each other for along time. I would recommend her to anyone interested in your company to talk to her. Her honesty made our meeting show me that if I decided to do the project I would want her for my project manager.

I wanted to take a moment to share my wonderful experience with Alpha Foundations, specifically with two outstanding employees–Tory and Blake–who came out this morning to address a sidewalk issue at my property. From start to finish, they were professional, courteous, and went above and beyond to ensure the repair was done right. Tory and Blake arrived on time and immediately got to work, assessing the situation with impressive attention to detail. They took the time to explain the process to me, ensuring I understood the repairs and what was needed. Throughout the job, they were respectful of my property and worked efficiently, all while maintaining a positive, can-do attitude. What really stood out was their dedication to quality. They not only repaired the sidewalk but made sure it was level and safe, taking extra care to ensure everything was done to the highest standards. It was clear they take great pride in their work, and their expertise really showed. I can't say enough about how great Tory and Blake were. It's rare to find such exceptional service, and I am truly grateful for their hard work. If you're considering any foundation or concrete work, I highly recommend Alpha Foundations, and if you get the chance to work with Tory and Blake, you're in excellent hands! Thank you both for a job well done!
