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.

After IceStorm Fern, my Groundworks system was blowing water back into the crawl space. From the moment I texted my salesman Sam, to the calls to the office, and the arrival of the crew (Jamil, CJ, PJ, &Cedric) sent to troubleshoot the situation; Groundworks took care of me and my home like I was family. I’m so happy that I chose this company for my foundation/crawl space repairs/upgrades.

We had a complicated repair and I reached out to 5 companies. AFS stood out from the beginning through their sales team to their repair plan. Once my repair started, I was overly impressed with the communication technology used and I felt very informed throughout the process. The staff was knowledgeable and their end results showed they cared about providing quality workmanship. The two crews were great (Tyler, Able & Pedro / Matthew & John). Thanks very much guys. I would not hesitate contacting this company if you are in need of their services.

Luis, Ramon, and Rodrigo were amazing! The work they completed looks great and the crew were hard working, detailed orientated, and very respectful! Luis went above and beyond to explain about the work being done and what each installed feature did. He was very helpful in explaining how to take care of the french drain, sup pump, and wall braces going forward. 5 out of 5 stars!

Jesse and Cameron with Foundation Recovery Systems did a fantastic job in lifting my driveway and sidewalk as well as filing an open area under my porch. They communicated effectively with me on their estimated time of arrival and then were professional, thorough and complete in their work. I would highly recommend them and FRS for any of your home foundation or waterproofing work.

The crawl space looks great. No more dirty plastic to deal with. The crew that did out job was amazing. Wish I know their names, (my husband was dealing with the guys). We couldn't be more pleased with the Ground works company and staff. Wish we had done the work earlier. Thanks for a great job.

Had an emergency water pipe leak with water running into the basement where Groundworks had already installed a sump pump and drainage system. The pump clogged up with mud and wouldn’t work. Josh Moreno responded and worked so hard getting the system apart and cleaned out. Unfortunately he couldn’t finish until we got someone out to dig up the front yard and replace main water line. Josh was here first thing Monday morning and finished cleaning the system out, tested everything, and got everything working again. We are so thankful he responded to our home and took care of it. Thanks Josh!

Absolutely could not be more impressed with the integrity, Thoroughness, and honesty I received from Mitchell at Groundworks. I have been seeing some water seepage through my poured foundation walls as well as cracks in the basement floor. I work 2 jobs and it’s difficult to make appointments where I can be home. Mitchell was more than willing to be here on a Saturday afternoon to fit my schedule. He was here over 1.5 hours inspecting, laser leveling, and checking everything he could. As much as I wanted answers, I was terrified to have the issues looked at due to financial constraints. As it turns out, I have some poor quality concrete and some minor cracking & settling going on. No immediate repairs needed. I feel like I can breathe easy again and am so so thankful for the thoroughness of Mitchell’s inspection and his honesty about what’s going on. I will continue to monitor the situation and if repairs are needed in the future, I will definitely have Groundworks out again. Definitely give these folks a try, they are fabulous.
