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.

It was great working with Adam Cronk. He was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He explained steps he performed to check & repair shower mechanism. He took time to answer my many questions, I like to understand how things work for future reference. I have an older home and Adam made a couple trips for parts he needed. He didn't leave until repairs were complete and shower worked as expected. My alloted time ran a little longer than expected but I appreciate Adam taking time to do the repairs correctly. I've scheduled appointments with A1 Sewer & Drain in the past and each time been pleased with both the technician sent and work performed. I would definitely call again if a need arise.

Foundation repair is not cheap but a necessity in the long term value of your home and peace of mind. Well worth the monetary investment. JES Superintendent Manny Chavez, Foreman-Rafael Garcia, Wilton Mendoza, Jose Lavato, and Poly Foreman-Seth Hansen did an amazing job with our foundation and driveway project. From start to completion they were true professionals. I was impressed by the quality of their work and their level of detail and care with my home. It was a great experience and I highly recommend JES to anyone needing foundation repairs. R. Moss

Trace came out to do some maintenance on my crawl space (They had encapsulated it in 2020 in addition with mold remediation and added a sump pump and dehumidifier). Trace was great, fast and efficient (When I wasn't talking his ear off) and the price was even lower than expected. I would definitely recommend Chase with AFS!

Groundworks sent an excellent crew headed by Gabriel Amaya with Juan, Mauro and John. Their first action was to ensure the work area of the basement would be dust free by enclosing the area with plastic. They were familiar with the bentonite clay soils below and had proper equipment to install new pile foundations and the two columns for support of the upper floor. I was impressed with Groundworks' versatility in handling the adverse soil conditions and their neat work habits.
