Our Services

Foundation Repair
Do you know how well your home is standing up to the test of time? Is it strong and sturdy or does it feel like it’s on shaky ground? Whether you interpret this figuratively or literally, it’s so important for your home to have a strong foundation.

Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation
Normally these areas are empty, but you never know what creepy conditions you’ll find there – mold, pest infestation, wet insulation, and much more.

Basement Waterproofing
Water is essential, but other than coming out of faucets for specific needs, you do not want water in your house. This powerful element and force of nature can wreak havoc on your home.

Structural Wall Repair
Repair your failing and crumbling structural walls with our proven products.

Had some disagreements with the sales advisor but Walker, the Sales Manager, corrected things as how it should be and things worked out. Huge shout out to the following individuals who did the deck foundation work on my property: Timothy Richter (CFI), along with Braxden Chouinard, Caitlin Hove, Chris Story, and Matt Doefler. Thanks for your knowledge and expertise.

Innovative Basements Authority did a superb job of helping us with our foundation. From Adam's first visit to assess and estimate, to Josh's hard working crew that worked their tails off over 4 days. These workers are all veterans, and they were hardworking, polite, and informative. They were a pleasure to work with. Rollie Johnson

Dustin Latterell was amazing- one of the most courteous and thorough experts I’ve had in my home. He went way above and beyond- took time to share his expertise and make sure I clearly understood the state of my existing system but also everything about the rest of my home- he took careful measurements and was able to put together drawings and specifications while still on site. He took extra care to sit down with me and run through everything he did and all of the recommendations based on the inspection. We talked about what projects that could be advantageous to do now and others that could be done later. Very informative and no-pressure conversation. I know a lot more about my house and garage and the current state of the foundation, and he was able to take a look at my deck and propose a couple quick and easy options that would prevent further sinking without ripping out the deck or yard or a bunch of construction. I genuinely felt like he was treating my house like it was his own- an exceptional level of care. It’s people like Dustin that really make the difference when choosing who to trust with this kind of work. 11 out of 10. Real pros

I had John with Groundworks come look at house after learning my floor was out of level. He drove over and hour each way two times and spent hours in my house measuring, and hours more on the phone with me and discovered a wall that was out of plumb due to rotted supports on an overhang, causing the overhang to pull on the wall. He gave me a $13,000 beam and interior support pole proposal that he said they could do in addition to the overhang supports needing to be replaced by a different contractor, but told me point blank that what he had proposed would likely be for peace of mind only and likely a “net zero” benefit after the supports were replaced by a different contractor, so there was really no need to go through with the work from Groundworks. He could have easily told me their proposal was necessary and I’d have paid it in a heartbeat. Hours upon hours he spent working hard on my issue, identified the issue, told me how to solve it, and Groundworks never charged me a dime, even though I’d have bit hook line and sinker if he told me the proposal was necessary. Really unbelievable level of effort and integrity, I was amazed at how passionately he cared about solving my issue in the best way for me. Once in a lifetime experience.

We had a fantastic experience with Innovative Basement Authority, starting off with our sales visit from David. He provided a prompt and detailed quote that was very reasonable for our project. The repair team consisting of Josh A, Greg H, Ishmaele M, and Dustin L arrived shortly thereafter and did a great job! The work was performed on-time with a fantastic attention to detail, and communication was timely throughout. We really appreciate the team's work on our project! Thanks!

Foreman Adam Skillings and his crew of Brandon and Austin did a great job on a complicated problem of supporting and raising our sunken foundation. They showed up on time, kept us updated on their progress, responded quickly and professionally to some unexpected problems, finished on schedule and left a clean worksite. On top of that, they were nice guys and hard workers.

David drove out of his way to look at our basement issues. He sat down with us and really listened to our issues. Then he did a thorough inspection with pictures. He then sat down again with us and went over a plan that fits our budget and goals. Highly suggest working with Groundworks for your basement needs.
