Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire had been experiencing leaks in her basement. One area that the homeowner was particularly concerned about was the water heater. Looking for a way to keep the basement permanently dry, she reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Our Design Specialist, John Prince, conducted a free inspection of the home. After discussion with the homeowner, John recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage, TrenchDrain surface drainage, and TripleSafe sump pump system. This system captures water at the perimeter of the basement and delivers it to the sump pump, where it is then pumped out of the home through an exterior discharge line. When there are areas where WaterGuard is inaccessible, TrenchDrain is installed to continue the flow of water to the sump pump. The TrenchDrain system connects to the WaterGuard system, as can be seen in the after photo.

Once all these systems are installed, they are cemented in place. This homeowner now has peace of mind that her basement will stay dry!

This before and after series highlights the effectiveness of PolyLevel for lifting and leveling concrete slabs. This homeowner was very concerned with the individual concrete slabs he had running along his view of the Merrimack River in Manchester, NH. There were several tripping hazards, and overall it was becoming more and more unsightly. 

Our concrete repair team successfully leveled various sections of the patio for the homeowner, while also sealing all the joints and exposed cracks for additional layer of protection. With rainwater unable to seep beneath and cause more erosion, this concrete is protected for years to come.

A homeowner in Manchester, New Hampshire, had recently purchased their home in the last year. When they moved into their home there was a large rainstorm that allowed water to leak into the basement. They wanted to use their basement for storage and didn't want to worry about water entering the basement and ruining their belongings. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their basement. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowners and took a detailed look at the basement to find where and why water was entering the basement. We found the water was seeping through the 60+-year-old foundation wall during heavy periods of rain. Our Installation Team installed WaterGuard, TripleSafe, CleanSpace, IceGuard, EDL, and SaniDry Sedona in the basement to prevent water from entering the basement and ruining their belongings. 

In the before photo, notice how the concrete slabs around the pool deck in Manchester, NH have sunk by inches, a common issue caused by soil erosion. As part of our solution, we used the PolyLevel® system to stabilize and lift the sunken slabs, ensuring a safer and level pool area. To further protect the concrete, we applied NexusPro® Joint Sealant, effectively sealing cracks and joints to prevent water ingress. Our advanced concrete repair strategies are designed to withstand weather changes efficiently, upholding durability and prolonging structural integrity.

A homeowner in Acton, Massachusetts was preparing to sell his home. In order to protect the value of the home, he wanted to repair cracks in his foundation. These cracks had been present when he purchased the home 11 years ago but have been worsening much more in recent years. He reached out to our Erickson team for a permanent solution.

Mark Proctor, one of our Design Specialists, went out to conduct a free inspection on the home. He recommended installing PolyLevel injection foam and NexusPro crack and joint sealant. The PolyLevel foam is injected underneath the concrete to fill voids which cause sinking, thus lifting and leveling the concrete. Once the concrete is leveled, NexusPro sealant is injected into the cracks. This product is engineered to provide long-lasting flexibility and stand up to harsh weather conditions, which means no cracking, drying, or bubbling.

One the job is finished, a long-lasting foundation floor is created. This homeowner can now sell his home knowing its value is protected.
