Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Methuen, Massachusetts removed drywall in the finished basement to discover water leaking through the foundation wall. With an old sump pump already installed, the homeowners realized they needed a better waterproofing system to keep the basement dry all the time. Looking to protect the finished basement, they reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Our Design Specialist, Tom Armano, recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage and our UltraSump sump pump. This system is designed to waterproof the basement by collecting water from outside wet soil before coming in contact with the interior basement, delivering it to the sump pump, and safely pumping it out of the home through an exterior discharge line. IceGuard is installed to the discharge plumbing system to prevent frozen pipes, which eliminates the possibility of pipes bursting or backing up, resulting in basement flooding.

With the basement now fully waterproofed, this homeowner has peace of mind that the finished basement is protected from water.

Older home with a fieldstone foundation. The lally columns and brick posts were failing and settling over the years, and so the homeowner was looking for a permanent solution to fix the problem. Erickson Foundation Supportworks installed several SmartJacks throughout the basement area, which was all dirt floor. The homeowners old sumppump was also replaced and upgraded.

A homeowner in Hampstead, New Hampshire, had just purchased their home and they had an inspector look at their home. The inspector noted a concerning crack in their foundation. The homeowners called EFS for a free inspection. EFS didn't find the crack to be of any concern and sealed the crack and placed a crack monitor on it. But our Design Specialist did notice a sagging beam in their garage. We recommended installing 2 SmartJacks to add support to the beam.
