Working with Dan Heath was excellent. He came, assessed our issue and sat down to go over his findings. He is very knowledgeable, explained everything in great detail and showed us what set FSM apart from other companies. He went through everything in great detail on how to prepare and set up for crew to come in and work. I also want to point out how nice and enthusiastic the crew was. They worked a very hard, long day and were polite and kind the whole day despite the cold temperatures. I have already recommended the company to others as we are very satisfied with the process from initial assessment to completed work.

We are very happy with the job our Traverse City crew of Bryant, Gabe, Logan and Jarred did on our crawl space. Bryant kept us well informed of arrival and departure times, gave us frequent updates on their progress with lots of pictures. The crew jumped right in and started working immediately upon arrival. Bryant kept us informed of issues they ran into and how they could be fixed. The crew were always cheerful and polite. They did their job quickly and efficiently and finished up a day earlier than expected. I would not hesitate to recommend FSM to anyone with crawl space issues.

Groundworks just finished a project at my house and I couldn’t be happier with the work this crew did. Hunter K, Teddy F, and River C were very respectful of my property and made sure I was happy when they finished. They went the extra mile to clean up completely when done. This was my fourth project with FSM/Groundworks and I’ve had a good experience each time. I feel they have genuine people across the board and work to take care of your issues.

How We Stabilize Your Basement

Our top-of-the-line products and installation practices for stabilizing walls and restoring structural integrity set us apart from the rest. Our commitment to customer service means we’ll make the process as pain-free as possible.  

Permanently Stabilize Basement Walls

What We Do

Your walls are the first place to look for signs of foundation problems. Vertical cracks can show up in drywall, and stair-step cracks run down cinder block basement walls. Neither of these are purely cosmetic—they’re structural too. At FSM, stabilizing walls is the first thing we do to restore your home. Using tools personalized to your home, we anchor your walls into alignment and reinforce them to stand strong.

What We Use

Permanently Stabilize Perimeter Basement Foundation

What We Do

Our team will conduct a thorough assessment of the key areas contributing to the destabilization of your basement perimeter foundation. Through the strategic installation of piers, reinforcements, and expert engineering, we ensure a lasting and secure foundation for your home.

Reach out to Foundation Systems of Michigan for Basement Repair Now! 

Say goodbye to basement troubles that jeopardize your home’s structural integrity and overall comfort. Whether you’re dealing with cracked floors or bowing walls, we’ve got you covered. Address the problem today to avoid expensive fixes in the future. 

Our customer service team is ready to walk you through our process and help you schedule your free no-obligation inspection. Or schedule a day and time that works best for you with our convenient online booking system.  

FAQs

Prevention measures include improving drainage around your home, installing a sump pump, and periodic inspections to catch early signs of bowing or cracking. Proper maintenance can go a long way in preventing future issues. 

The duration for repair varies depending on the method used and the severity of the issue. Minor crack repairs can take a day or less, while more extensive bowing solutions could require several days. 

A bowed wall can progressively worsen and eventually collapse if not addressed promptly. It’s essential to take immediate action to ensure the structural integrity of your home is not compromised.
