A homeowner in Rye, New Hampshire. has lived in their home for the past 55 years. The home is over 100 years old and the homeowners plan to keep it in good condition to pass along to their children. They have been fixing the old home in phases. The current phase is to address the supports within the basement. 

The homeowners called EFS for a free inspection of their basement. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowners and recommended installing 5 SmartJacks into the basement to replace the current wooden supports.

Our installation team installed the 5 SmartJacks under the main beam to add support to the floor system. We used the adjustable top to lift and level the floors above. The homeowners were very pleased with the results of the project. 

This home in Manchester, NH had issues with water getting into the basement. With nothing in place to remove the water, the customer became concerned.

A homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire has lived in his home for over 40 years. Several years ago, he noticed that his basement would leak. In order to fix this, he had a sump pump installed. This pump isn't working as it was intended to, resulting in the basement flooding. Looking for a permanent solution keep his basement dry; he reached out to our Erickson team.

Our Design Specialist, John Prince, recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage, SuperSump sump pump, and FlexiSpan crack sealant. Our crew started installing this waterproofing system by chipping our concrete along the border of the basement floor to make space for the WaterGuard drainage. This system captures water at the perimeter of the basement before being exposed to the walls or floor. The water collected then flows to our SuperSump sump pump. A new basin was created for the sump pump to sit in since the previous basin was not in the ideal spot. A feed line was installed connecting the old basin to the new basin in order to allow the new sump system to pump out the unwanted water. Once these systems were installed, they were cemented in place. An exterior discharge line was then installed to the sump pump to direct water safely out of the home. IceGuard was installed to the discharge line to prevent the pipe from freezing, which prevents sump pumps from backing up and flooding. Lastly, FlexiSpan crack sealant was used to seal a large crack in the basement wall. This sealant stops water from making its way through the crack, and is able to adjust to settlement, making it a long-lasting solution.

With the job now complete, crew lead Ryan Champagne went over a final walkthrough with the homeowner. He was thrilled that he would never have to deal with the annoying cleanup process again!

A homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire had been experiencing leaks in her basement. One area that the homeowner was particularly concerned about was the water heater. Looking for a way to keep the basement permanently dry, she reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Our Design Specialist, John Prince, conducted a free inspection of the home. After discussion with the homeowner, John recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage, TrenchDrain surface drainage, and TripleSafe sump pump system. This system captures water at the perimeter of the basement and delivers it to the sump pump, where it is then pumped out of the home through an exterior discharge line. When there are areas where WaterGuard is inaccessible, TrenchDrain is installed to continue the flow of water to the sump pump. The TrenchDrain system connects to the WaterGuard system, as can be seen in the after photo.

Once all these systems are installed, they are cemented in place. This homeowner now has peace of mind that her basement will stay dry!
