Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Amesbury, Massachusetts, had a musty odor coming from their crawlspace and wanted to find a solution for it. The homeowners called EFS for a free inspection of their crawlspace. Our Design Specialist looked at the space and recommended installing CleanSpace, Drainage Matting, PolyLevel Wall Restoration, and a SaniDry Sedona into the crawlspace to fully encapsulate the space and eliminate the odors. 

A homeowner in Durham, New Hampshire had been experiencing sinking and uneven floors. With concern that the situation could worsen, they reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions for a permanent solution.

One of our Design Specialists came out to conduct a free inspection of the home. Upon completion of the inspection, our Design Specialist recommended installing SmartJacks. SmartJacks are similar to Lally columns, but are able to provide better support to the home, and are also adjustable. The SmartJacks are installed by inserting a galvanized steel plate into the foundation on top of a sturdy base of crushed stone. Then, the steel post is attached to the plate, and also connected to a supplemental support beam. The system is then cemented in place.

With the system in place, the proper support is given to the home. This levels out floors and eliminates the bouncy feeling in floorboards. This homeowner can now have peace of mind that his floors are permanently stabilized!

Before diving into the heart of the Danvers home's crawl space issue, as seen in the 'before' photo, moisture buildup and less-than-ideal encapsulation allowed unwanted guests, like mice, to make themselves at home. That's where Erickson Foundation Solutions stepped in. Notice in the 'after' photo, our expert team installed CleanSpace, transforming the area into a dry, pristinely encapsulated space. By addressing the problem at its root, we ensured a healthier home environment and peace in the homeowner’s mind.

In Peabody, MA, this home's crawl space struggled with moisture, rodents, and mold, creating an unhealthy environment. Featuring firsthand images shown, the source of these concerns is apparent.
