Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A home in Wilmington, Massachusetts, had an issue with the foundation sinking. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their foundation. Our Design Specialist Mark Proctor met with the homeowner and inspected all of their concerns. After the inspection, Mark recommended installing Helical Piers around the settling portion of the foundation. We installed a total of 8 Helical Piers around the sinking corner of the foundation. 

In this recent basement waterproofing project in Wilmington, MA, the homeowner faced challenges due to a failed sump pump that left their finished basement water-damaged. As solution innovators at Erickson Foundation Solutions, we applied a comprehensive strategy: installing WaterGuard®, TripleSafe™ Sump Pump, and IceGuard®. These features work seamlessly to channel and remove intruding water, showcased in the after photo. Further stabilization was achieved using the SmartJack® system, while the aesthetics were restored with our ThermalDry Flooring and EverLast Half Walls. With expertise and cutting-edge systems, we have redefined the construction experience.

In Wilmington, MA, a homeowner faced a safety concern with their sunken walkway, experiencing a 2.5-inch trip hazard and a total depth decline of over 6 inches. Utilizing our PolyLevel® system, we efficiently lifted and leveled the concrete with high-strength polyurethane foam, returning it to its intended elevation. Our experts also applied NexusPro® Joint Sealant, ensuring that all cracks and joints are sealed against water infiltration, preventing further soil erosion beneath the slabs. As demonstrated in the photo, Erickson Foundation Solutions provides reliable and effective concrete repair services.

A homeowner from Belmont, Massachusetts has a finished basement that kept leaking. This has caused mold and other undesirable affects. The homeowner wants to create a livable space for family members to use. In order to achieve this, she reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

One of our Design Specialists, Scott Ruisi, came out to the home to complete a free home inspection. Within 90 minutes, Scott diagnosed the issues with the basement and proposed solutions that met the homeowner's expectations. He ultimately recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage, TrenchDrain surface drainage, a TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. This waterproofing system collects water at the perimeter of the foundation before entering the basement, filtering it to the sump pump, and then expelling it from the home through a drainage line. The dehumidifier removes moisture from the air, thus eliminating mold spores and other toxins, which creates better air quality. Our installation crew chipped out the perimeter of the basement floor and wall to make space for the WaterGuard system. Once space was made, WaterGuard was laid in place on top of crushed stone. TrenchDrain is used in areas where WaterGuard in inaccessible.  These two systems connect to each other, forming a path that allows water to flow to the sump pump. A basin was created for the sump pump to sit in and collect the water. Once the drainage system was connected to the sump pump, everything was cemented in place. The exterior drainage line was then added to the sump pump.

Our installation crew made sure to keep the space neat and tidy. Once the job was complete, they gave the homeowner a walkthrough of their new waterproofing system. They were thrilled with the result.

We recently tackled a challenging repair in Fremont, NH, where a homeowner faced a frustrating issue - the right side of their garage floor had sunk by 3 inches. As you can see in the before photo, the imbalance was quite noticeable and problematic. By leveraging our cutting-edge solutions, PolyLevel and NexusPro, we effectively raised and stabilized the sunken concrete. The after photo showcases the seamless and level surface - testament to our commitment to delivering durable solutions and an exceptional customer experience.
