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.

A1 came on Thanksgiving morning even though our appointment was scheduled for the following day on Friday. So the technician showed up on the wrong day which we were not prepared for. Other than that , Lee was excellent. Solid professional who was courteous, respectful and had great interpersonal skills. By process of elimination like a detective he was able to find the source of our water leak. Overall pleased with his service.

First impressions experienced with sales consultant advisor, Daniel Raymond, were excellent. He was professional, thorough, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He offered suggestions and explained the process. Very pleasant experience. He explained the work and quote and scheduled the work in a timely manner. He helped with a great financing option to make it easier on the payout. The day of the project the techs arrived right on time as scheduled. Luke and Anthony went over the work to be performed and explained everything to my satisfaction. I even added some work based on solutions to a few other problems. They amended the work order and explained the price difference from the original bid. All quite reasonable. They kept me informed throughout the day on choices to be made and helpful suggestions. Luke and Anthony were consistently pleasant and professional and made sure I understood it was important to them that i be satisfied with the work. They finished in a timely manner, when they estimated they would be done. They walked the completed job with me to assure of my satisfaction. And they left the work sites perfectly clean. The following day I was contacted by a friendly lady named Summer who called from the office to make sure I was satisfied. Not only do I recommend this company-I will definitely use them again on a future project we already discussed. And if I have my preference I would use the same people who worked with me on this project. Bill G.

We had an excellent experience with Groundworks from start to finish with our foundation work. From Jason's initial visit and assessment, to working out payment options, to the work performed by Jake, Noah, and Jack, we couldn't have asked for a better crew. They were prompt and courteous, cleaned up after themselves, answered all my questions, and put up with our dog that just wanted to play with them the whole time. The work we had done was a huge financial investment into our home and the whole Groundworks crew made us feel comfortable and confident in their work throughout the project.

Big thanks and shoutout to Aaron Flowers, Andrew Welty, and Carlos Gutierrez who flew in from the Denver, CO groundworks location to address my encapsulation job in California! All three were complete professionals while completing the project. They treated our home with respect (placed plastic to protect our floors and walls as needed), cleaned up after each work day, and kept us informed on how the job was progressing. We went with encapsulation due to each time we had heavy rain, the crawl space would get standing water/muddy (it comes up from the ground). Unfortunately we had a heavy rain storm the first couple days of the encapsulation project, and as such the crawl space turned into a muddy mess. Aaron, Andrew and Carlos would come out of the crawl space looking like they had just completed a mud wrestling match. They kept a positive attitude, and pushed through the challenges of the muddy crawl space to get the project completed. Thank you Groundworks for sending such a great crew to complete my project!

We have had this company, formally Boston Basement, for over 20 years and the same friendly, knowledgable, and professional tech Archie B for 17 of them. Groundwork’s is now bigger and better! So wise to hold onto Archie! We can count on great service and a dry basement that maintains a wonderful living space. If you’re looking for the same call now… Don’t wait for the next flood!

These guys are such a blessing. We've had a flood warning and tons of rain the past few days and our basement is bone dry. Before they fixed it it would fill with multiple feet of water during most rains. Sofia Gick, Stacey Scott, and Daniel Johnson were so amazing. Very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. They made sure I fully understood our new system and they walked me thru multiple times during the job to explain what they would be doing. I would totally refer them to anyone needing a job done.
