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.

Service technician Chris Trevitz arrived promptly for my scheduled annual maintenance visit on Wednesday last week. As promised, I received a text notifying me when he was on the way. He completed the checklist to verify that all systems were in working order, checked the dehumidifier filter and made recommendations for updates. His explanations were clear and complete.

Zachariah Milligan, Groundworks Certified Field Inspector, went above and beyond helping us with our crawlspace issues. Zachariah took the time, and utilzed photos, to bring to light current issues that had not been remediated by previous contracted companies. His personable approach and willingness to ensure all of our questions and concerns were addressed made us feel confident that his team at the Groundworks Company would produce a quality outcome.

we had concrete pads added after home construction. One pad had a 2 inch settlement on one corner. Complicating this was a stone wall sitting atop the pad. Excellent restoration was done by Groundworks From Bozeman. After a thorough evaluation by Ben, Chelsea and Tyler were prompt, educational and successful. I Highly recommend this company for your concrete/foundation needs.

Trevor, Brennan, James, and Jamari were the crew to do the push piers on our foundation and we couldn't be happier with their work. They were punctual, polite, finished ahead of schedule and left the place just as clean as they found it. I am thoroughly satisfied with the company as a whole. From the sight survey and evaluation all the way through completion they went above and beyond. Always communicated with me and kept me informed of expectations, changes, and arrival times. If you are considering using AFS… I couldn't recommend them enough. I am one happy customer!

We have a bermed concrete house in a hillside, and a small storage unit at one side had started leaking through the floor. A heavy rain or snow melting day would leave a major puddle, so I worried about it getting worse, and mold. I saw the Groundworks ad on TV. (Good grief.) I called, had a quickly schedules visitation, an assessment, and a very fast turnaround with workers installing a sump system in 2 days of work. I have yet to go through a heavy rain, but I am very impressed with this crew. Dorothy Bradley

JES encapsulated and installed a sub pump in my crawl space 2 years ago. All was going fine then recently within the last month the sub pump alarm sounded 4~5 times. Chris Lamb came out today (Saturday) and troubleshot the issue to a faulty pump. It will be replaced this week. Great Job Chris for actually troubleshooting and determining the root cause. JES should give this guy a pay raise on the spot now!
