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.

Everything went great. Gage Esry called the day before the original scheduled date and discussed setting up a new service date. Due to the recent snow our state road was completely covered. Set up a new date for a few days later. Thought this was great because in the past some techs just did not show up or even touch base until the day of. We appreciated it. John and Debbie.

Jose U. with Leveled Concrete came out on March 24th & re-leveled several panels of our driveway with their pressure “expanding foam.” He did a fantastic job! Throughout the process he explained exactly what he was doing, as well as answered my many questions! As a result of his wonderful attitude and his sincere desire to do an excellent job, I can highly recommend Jose to be your highly qualified technician to perform concrete leveling with the expanding foam utilized by Leveled Concrete!!!

When the repairman (Chris) showed up he went over in detail the plan for the repairs. He was upfront about the difficulty of my repairs. Expectations were set and I knew it wasn’t going to be an easy job even before I contacted AFS. He was upfront and honest the entire time of the project. Were all the repairs able to be completed no, but it was not because of his effort. Concrete is not an easy item to work with when trying to do repairs. Would we have liked for everything to go perfect I think we all would, but we don’t live in a perfect world. Things happen beyond our control and Chris did everything he could to get my issues into a better place than they were before he arrived. After all was said and done they adjust the price based on what they could not fix. I would recommend AFS and Chris!
