Before & After Photos

A homeowner in West Newbury, Massachusetts was concerned with the amount of water leaking through her basement walls. She turned to Erickson Foundation Solutions to solve the problem.

After scheduling an appointment through our Customer Care Specialist, a Design Specialist went to the home to conduct a free inspection. Our Design Specialist noticed that the homeowner's basement wall was heavily cracked and bowing in, which is what was causing it to leak. Unfortunately, bowing walls are a sign of much worse problems. Thankfully, our free inspection allowed the homeowner to be aware of the bowing brick and fieldstone foundation and offer a solution before potentially collapsing. Our Design Specialist recommended installing our PowerBrace Wall Repair System to stop further damage and potentially straighten the wall. We also recommended installing a waterproofing system, but emphasized that fixing the bowing wall should be the priority. The homeowner understood the importance of the situation and opted to get the PowerBrace installed.

After our installation crew installed the auxiliary wall, they also offered advice to help keep the basement dry until a waterproofing system is put in place. With this wall support system in place, the basement foundation wall is now stabilized, and the house is properly supported.

This homeowner in Marblehead, Massachusetts was experiencing some cracking and sinking in their breezeway. They called Erickson Foundation Solutions for a free inspection. A Design Specialist arrived at the home and inspected the breezeway. He recommended that the homeowner use PolyLevel and Nexus Pro to repair the breezeway. 

The EFS Crew arrived at the home and was able to lift and level the breezeway. After leveling the breezeway, they sealed all of the cracks.

A homeowner in Marblehead, Massachusetts, had purchased their home about a year ago. When they purchased the home they noticed the floors were sagging. Over the first year of owning the home, the homeowners have noticed cracks forming around the interior of their home. They decide to call EFS for a free inspection. EFS recommended installing SmartJacks in the basement to add support to the main level of their home. 

Our production team installed 4 SmartJacks XT and 20' of Supplemental beam to eliminate the sloping in the main floor of the home. 

A homeowner in Marblehead, Massachusetts, has lived in their home for the past 50 years. 30 years ago the homeowners removed a column in their finished basement to gain usable space. Now after many years the floors above have sunk and required additional support. The homeowner called EFS for a free inspection and our Design Specialist recommended installing two lally columns in the finished section of the basement to stabilize the floors. 

This homeowner in Amesbury, Massachusetts was experiencing sagging floors in their home. Design Specialist Brian Allen came to the home and proposed a Smart Jacks System to counteract the effects of sagging floors. Crew Lead Jon Provost and his team installed Smart Jacks into the basement. Installing Smart Jacks into the basement permanently added support to the interior of the home and reversed further sagging.
