Quality Workmanship
Your home deserves expert care. That’s why our certified technicians handle every repair with precision, delivering long-lasting protection.

When Jesse and Stella Waltz founded JES Foundation Repair more than 30 years ago, they built the company around a simple idea: earning a homeowner’s confidence is just as important as earning their business.
What began as a local family business has grown into one of the Mid-Atlantic’s most trusted foundation repair companies and has expanded nationally as Groundworks to help more than 1.5 million homeowners across North America.
While we’ve grown over the years, our approach remains the same. We believe homeowners deserve honest recommendations, quality workmanship, and solutions tailored to their homes.
That’s why our Trained and Certified experts work alongside licensed engineers to design repairs that deliver long-term protection and peace of mind.
Because at the end of the day, we’re not just repairing homes– we’re helping families protect the place they call home.
