Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

Approximately five years ago, a homeowner in Laconia, New Hampshire observed that the kitchen cabinets were detaching from the wall. As time progressed, the situation deteriorated, with increasing gaps and cracks appearing in the drywall. Concerned about her home's structural integrity, she contacted Erickson Foundation Solutions for assistance.

Our Design Specialist, Jason Vachon, recommended the installation of our GeoLock wall anchor system alongside an auxiliary foundation wall to address the deteriorating foundation. This method aims to secure the inward-bowing fieldstone and brick wall, while also preventing further deterioration. The GeoLock anchors were placed by extending rods through the foundation wall into an area with stable soil. After attaching the anchors to these rods, steel plates were secured to the inside of the foundation wall and subsequently tightened to fortify the wall against additional inward movement.

The crew began constructing the auxiliary wall by installing SmartBraces along the interior foundation wall for additional stabilization. These SmartBraces were then encased within a cement wall, forming the auxiliary wall that provides substantial strength and support to both the foundation and the home.

With the implementation of this solution, the homeowner can rest assured that the structural integrity of her forever home is permanently secured.

In the basement before the transformation, you see water intrusion that threatened the stability and use of the homeowner's space in Laconia, NH. To tackle this challenge, we installed the WaterGuard system, tying it seamlessly into the existing sump pump, to ensure efficient water drainage. We also applied the FlexiSpan on interior walls to further prevent leaks and address foundational cracks. Notice how the after photo presents a dry and secure environment, now safe from moisture concerns. At Erickson Foundation Solutions, we provide solutions for permanent peace of mind.

In Laconia, NH, a homeowner struggled with persistent basement flooding, causing frequent headaches with constant cleanups. Laconia’s wet environment often overwhelmed traditional drainage systems, resulting in recurring damp conditions. As shown in the before photo, water accumulation had become a significant issue. To resolve this, we installed our advanced WaterGuard® subfloor perimeter drainage system, the reliable TripleSafe™ sump pump, and the IceGuard® discharge line protection. These solutions, visible in the after photo, work precisely together to permanently eliminate moisture challenges, ensuring the basement remains clean and dry, offering new functional space in your home.

A homeowner of 3 years in Littleton, Massachusetts recently got a radon test for their basement. The test came back slightly high so they are looking to install a radon mitigation system. Design Specialist Brian Allen came to the home and talked to the homeowners about their options. Then Scott Crandall and his team installed the radon mitigation system into the home.
