The company works directly with homeowners, offering free inspections to diagnose issues and provide estimates for its patented repair solutions, and then completes the home improvement projects for a fee. Unlike many contractors that operate locally without standardized processes, Groundworks' model centers on a nationwide network delivering consistent, direct-to-consumer service on home repairs. The company’s goal is to help homeowners fix structural and moisture problems to protect their properties and improve long-term durability.
