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.

Justin Yearwood was our representative, and we appreciated that he contacted us well before arriving. He was punctual, professional, and courteous throughout the visit. He took the time to explain every detail of what was needed to resolve the issues at our 8-unit townhouse, including a clear breakdown of the fees we should expect moving forward. We truly appreciated the thorough explanation and the time he dedicated to ensuring we fully understood the process. Highly recommend!

Zach and his crew did an amazing job repairing our foundation. He explained everything that was going to happen step-by-step, was always open to questions, and pitched in with his crew at work just as hard digging in and installing the poles to lift the foundation. They also had to saw into our wooden deck and put some temporary repairs in after the foundation work was done. All done professionally. My thanks to everyone. Crew-Zach, LJ, Anjel, kiwinoskey Field supervisor- Kazvin CFI- Kristopher All were professional, courteous and worked under some adverse conditions; we got an inch and a quarter of rain early the second morning and winds were gusting up to 45 miles an hour all day. After pumping the water out of the 11 holes dug the previous day, they still managed to finish in two days, just as predicted.

This past Friday while I was on my way out the door for work while a monsoon was coming down I went through my basement which had previously had the interior drainage done in April around 90% of my basement floor. And noticed a large amount of water running in from an old abandoned pipe that runs through the block and my sewage pipe that runs through block. I called Ohio basement authority to come and take a look to see what they can do to fix the issue and they had scheduled me with Kyle. He was very courteous and apologetic about what was going on. He presented to me what his plan was to fix the leaking issue and not only did he do that. He put on a clear paint like material on a spot where just a small amount of water was coming through and re routed my wiring that went into my sump pit to make it look more neat and presentable and to keep it from catching on the sump pump float. He told me he would do it as if it was his house and I really appreciate everything that he had done. Thanks again Kyle.

We went with BA of WV after Carrie came over to our house for the initial inspection and was able to point out several issues that both another basement inspector and our home inspector had never mentioned. She took great care to explain to us exactly what she was seeing and the steps needed to fix it. She walked us step-by-step through exactly what we would be paying to have done, and she kept in constant communication after we signed the contract. Brad and his crew were scheduled just a couple weeks after we signed, and they got the work done well ahead of schedule. I was extremely impressed with how the three men on the crew also kept us well informed each step of the way. They made it clear that they were consulting with Carrie and the supervisors through the whole process. **My favorite part about this crew was how creatively and kindly they managed to work around the unique issues out basement presented, even managing to work around issues that we had trouble getting solved before the construction date.** After this experience, we even have Carrie coming back again to discuss with us the logistics of tackling another part of our basement that has left contractors and inspectors baffled previously. Brad even said he and the crew would likely be back if we do the next project through BA. ✨TLDR: The whole team was kind, knowledgeable, consistent, quick, and reliable.
