Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Manchester, New Hampshire, purchased their home in August 2022. Recently they have noticed some bounciness in their floor system. They called EFS for a free inspection of their basement. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowner and recommended adding SmartJacks into the basement to stabilize the floor system. 

Our Installation team installed 5 SmartJacks into the basement to stabilize the floor system. 

This home in Manchester, NH was dealing with very wet soil on the property due to a wet, rainy year. The saturated soils on the exterior of the foundation walls were pushing against the concrete and causing it to crack and bow into the basement. The project included rebuilding a section of wall, installing a waterproofing sump pump system, and reinforcing a section of foundation wall with PowerBrace wall anchors. 

This before and after features a view of the wall anchors installed in one section of the basement. The wall cracks are visible, and were caused by soils pushing against it with incredible force. With the PowerBrace supports in place, the concrete wall is permanently stabilized and will not bow in any further. The water is now also diverted to a sump pump system, which will help relieve the pressure in the soil.

At Erickson Foundation Solutions, we recently transformed a basement in Manchester, NH from damp and dreary to dry and delightful. As you can see in the before photo, the old and rusted window wells were hardly serving their purpose anymore. The transformation is clear in the after photo, where we installed our innovative SunHouse Window Wells and Covers. Not only do these solutions brighten and protect the basement, but they also ensure a watertight seal, proving our commitment to delivering remarkable customer experiences and dependable solutions.

In Manchester, NH, a homeowner faced issues with a wet crawl space, which led to the rim joist insulation starting to fall. As shown in the initial photo, moisture was a clear issue, emphasizing the need for a reliable solution. We resolved these challenges using our CleanSpace system, including Drainage Matting and TerraBlock. The after photo highlights a transformed, dry, and insulated space. With the water redirected efficiently and vapor barriers installed, the crawl space is now a stable foundation, demonstrating our commitment to providing exceptional service and tangible results.

In Manchester, NH, a homeowner faced issues with a flooding crawl space and fragile cinderblock supports, putting their home at risk of mold, wood rot, and sagging floors. Notice in the before photo, the signs of potential structural damage and water issues.

As depicted in the after photo, our solution not only stabilized the structure but also ensured a dry, resilient, and healthy living environment.
