As part of the partnership with Groundworks, we will not only invest in the business, but we will also invest heavily in the career development and training of the Alpha employees, so they are empowered to provide better service and support to our customers."

"Groundworks and Alpha Foundations are two of the industry's fastest growing brands, so this partnership is a natural progression for both our companies," said Matt Shanley, Alpha Foundations Founder.  "The men and women at Alpha are the hardest working individuals, not just in the foundation repair business, but in any industry.  I'm excited for the partnership with Groundworks because it will allow our employees to achieve new levels of career advancement and success they wouldn't otherwise be able to achieve elsewhere." 

This is the 22^nd acquisition for Groundworks since 2016, and the fifth this year. With this acquisition, the company now has 18 brands, with 47 offices, and approximately 4,000 employees nationwide.
