Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Carlisle, Massachusetts, had found that the corner of the pool deck was sinking. They got referred to EFS by their landscape company. EFS recommended installing PolyLevel to lift and level the slabs. 

This homeowner in Wayland, MA was interested in learning more about radon systems. They had been testing their radon levels with an electric radon detector which the basement was averaging 2.8 but has spiked to as high as 6 pCi/l. The Design Specialist came to the home and explained to the homeowners about the potential issues and risks of radon. The homeowners chose to have a radon system installed after they met with the Design Specialist. Scott Crandall and his team installed the radon system into the home. 

A homeowner in Wayland, Massachusetts was concerned about their radon level in the home. Just having a newborn baby, this family wanted to take all the measures to ensure their home was safe. They trusted Erickson Foundation Solutions to ensure the safety of their home.

Our Design Specialist, Mark Proctor, visited the home to conduct a free home inspection. Upon inspection, Mark noticed that the existing sump pump in the home had stopped working and was leaking water. This created concern for mold growth, as well as potential basement flooding. Learning this new information, the homeowners decided to prioritize waterproofing the basement. Mark recommended installing our TripleSafe sump pump system. This system works better than a single sump pump due to the three high quality pumps all in one system. This system sits in a basin and pumps out all the water that comes into it. The first pump disposes of water at a normal rate of 1/3 horsepower. A second pump is activated at 1/2 horsepower in situations where heavy rains or melting occurs. Lastly, a third battery backup pump operates in the event of an emergency such as a power outage.

With this updated and upgraded sump pump system, this family can have peace of mind that their basement will be safe and dry. A great home starts with a strong foundation!

A homeowner in Wayland, MA conducted multiple radon gas tests in their home. One test revealed radon levels at 6 picocuries per liter, surpassing the Environmental Protection Agency's safety threshold of 4 picocuries per liter, thereby necessitating the installation of a radon mitigation system. Another test indicated radon levels at approximately 3 picocuries per liter, which is below the safety limit. Radon, a hazardous gas linked to health issues such as lung cancer, can fluctuate within a home due to various factors. These variable radon levels raised concerns for the homeowner, prompting them to seek a reliable solution. We installed our radon mitigation system, ensuring their home was safeguarded and providing the homeowner with the peace of mind they desired.

A homeowner in Warwick, Rhode Island, was worried about his son's safety due to tripping hazards near the pool. The soil had settled over time, causing the concrete to sink and tilt, leading to protruding edges. To address this, he contacted Erickson Foundation Solutions for concrete lifting and leveling.

Our Design Specialist, Jim Meglio, recommended the use of PolyLevel and NexusPro for lifting, leveling, and stabilizing the concrete. PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam, was injected beneath hazardous areas to fill the voids under the concrete. The installation team employed slab jacks to raise the concrete to the desired level. PolyLevel quickly hardens after installation, creating a permanently stable foundation. Once the pool deck's concrete was set, NexusPro was used to seal cracks and joints, offering additional protection against movement and cracking, as well as enhancing the appearance.

Upon completion of the work, our team cleaned the workspace and conducted a final inspection with the homeowner. Following the presentation of the work and addressing any remaining questions, the homeowner was delighted!
