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.

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

Rob L. of AFS was easy to work with and very patient to explain the issues with my crawlspace and the proposal to repair it to best suit my needs. He texted me on several occasions to setup the time of the inspection and arrived on time as he promised. I appreciate Rob's patience with me, and he made sure I had all my questions answered and that I understood the proposal. I really appreciated his courtesy and professionalism.

Adam E came out and did a great job explaining what was best for our stone house. You could tell his passion for customer service, and for quality work. He spent 3x longer than the other bids we have had, and because of this was able to get to the root of our problem unlike other quotes we had received. Very thankful for Adam and his diligence.

We had an emergency with a broken sump. Daniel Cippone came out the same day to look at it. He was able to work with Groundworks to get a team fix it within 3 days. Thankfully not much rain until the day of the fix. We had two amazing men , Ade and Vandyke, completely fix and repair two sumps. They were exceptional. Rob Trevison came by as well to oversee the work being done by these two exceptional men. Thank you very much for a job well done. More expensive than we were hoping but the peace of mind is worth it.
