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 purchased an encapsulation with a dehumidifier through the Jacksonville Alpha Foundation team in February 2024. Our initial site survey was conducted by Christian. He did a great job, showed us the pictures he took, thoroughly explained all of our options and presented a very clean proposal which was great. Ethan was our installer along with his team of Andrew and Matt. They were very obviously well trained and experienced – from the first step of unloading through the installation and clean up. Super friendly, answered all of our questions, shared post install photos -GREAT customer service. They hauled out all of the empty boxes and partially cut pieces. Even though we offered, they didn't use our trash or recycling bins which would have been easy, instead they cleaned up everything and then packed it all out. Today (3/7/25), Devin made an appointment and stopped by for our year 1 of our 5 year dehumidifier maintenance service. He cleaned the filter, pump and checked up on the seams, tape and overall encapsulation install work. He took and shared pictures of what he saw under the house. Today wasn't a sale or attempt to sell – just an inspection visit. Even so, Devin, like the rest of the team, was friendly, showed great customer service and made sure we were happy with the project – even though it wasn't generating any additional revenue. However, his continuation of this cycle of GREAT customer service has locked us in with Alpha Foundation for any work we may need in the future. The entire team – from site survey through year 1 check up – were rock stars. No issues or concerns at any point during the process. I don't believe that this is a one off experience for an Alpha Foundation customer, I believe that this is their business standard. We highly recommend Alpha Foundation as your choice for any and all home improvement work you may need.

Groundworks installed a sump pump and vapor barrier in my basement and I have had them do annual maintenance ever since. Every technician in my home has been professional, courteous and knowledgeable. Most recently Sean, who took extra time to educate me on his process. Highly recommend.
