Before & After Photos

This homeowner in North Andover, Massachusetts noticed their concrete driveway and walkway have settled a couple of inches. The settlement had produced some cracks in the driveway and the homeowners are looking to repair the concrete. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection. 

Design Specialist Isaac noted that there are some areas on the driveway and walkway that have sunk up to 4". Isaac recommended injecting PolyLevel under the concrete to lift and level the concrete. 

Crew Lead Nick Melo and his team injected PolyLevel into the driveway and walkway and were able to lift the concrete. After the concrete was lifted, the team sealed all of the cracks with NexusPro. 

A homeowner in North Andover, Massachusetts, had EFS inspect their home for radon, but concerning cracks were found on their foundation wall.

A foundation crew from EFS installed 15 Push Piers on the right side of the home. 

A homeowner in North Andover, Massachusetts, has lived in their home for the past 8 years. In the past month, they have noticed that there is a large crack in their foundation wall. They called EFS for a free inspection and our design specialist found that the crack was caused by the settlement of the foundation. EFS recommended installing Push Piers to the footing of the foundation to lift the foundation to its original position.

These homeowners in North Andover, MA were looking to add a porch to the front of their home, and before doing so were aware they first needed to fix their leaning foundation wall. The cinder block foundation wall was starting to bow inwards due to the soil on the exterior adding pressure, mostly from the weight of rain water building up. The extra pressure on the soil was potentially going to the cause the wall to collapse at some point, and so they knew they needed to make some repairs to stabilize the wall. The time to do it was now, before they built their front porch.

Our team proposed and installed a wall anchor system with our GeoLock supports. The wall anchors extended from the interior of the foundation wall, going out 10 feet from the home, into firm compacted soil four to five feet down in the ground. With 6 of these wall anchors secured in place, the wall is now permanently stabilized and supported, and any extra weight our pressure from compaction will not effect the wall. In the basement where the end of the anchors were visible, our team also installed covers to provide a nice, clean look that would not stand out.

They now have peace of mind to move forward with their new porch construction and not have to worry about the foundation wall of their home beneath it.
