Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Nashua, NH, with a mostly finished basement and a one-year-old child, discovered radon gas levels exceeding 5 pCi/L, surpassing the EPA’s hazard threshold of 4 pCi/L. Initially, no action was taken. After learning about the dangers of radon gas, the homeowner became concerned for their family’s safety and contacted Erickson Foundation Solutions to install a radon mitigation system.

We began the project by creating an extraction point through the foundation, allowing a PVC pipe to funnel radon gas. Next, we installed a radon fan on the exterior of the home to actively draw radon from the soil beneath the foundation. Additional PVC piping was then extended from the radon fan to surpass the roofline, safely expelling radon gas away from any entry points of the home. Lastly, we sealed all foundation cracks to further prevent radon from seeping into the basement.

Following the installation, the homeowner can now rest assured that their home is protected from radon gas.

In this foundation repair project in Nashua, NH, the homeowner turned to us due to significant horizontal cracks and an outward-bowing foundation wall, noticed in the before photo. To address this problem, we removed concrete from the garage floor, excavated beneath, and installed the GeoLock Wall Anchors. This system uses heavy-duty steel anchors embedded in stable soil, connected to wall plates, securing the foundation wall and preventing further movement. As evidenced in the after photo, this provides a permanent, stable solution that restores value and peace of mind.

In this crawl space transformation in Nashua, NH, the homeowner faced concerns about the structural integrity of their home, with sagging floors and insufficient temporary supports, as seen in the before photo. We addressed these critical issues by installing the SmartJack® System to stabilize the crawl space beams and floor joists, lifting them towards their original position. To further enhance protection, we encapsulated the previously damp area with our CleanSpace® liner. This solution provides a clean, dry, and resilient foundation, consequently safeguarding the home against moisture and structural damage.
