Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Hillsborough, New Hampshire had been experiencing sinking floors in their home. In an attempt to support the structure, the homeowners put concrete blocks under the support beam. This unconventional technique did not work, so they turned to Erickson Foundation Solutions for a professional and permanent solution.

After a thorough inspection, Design Specialist Jason Vachon recommended installing SmartJacks and encapsulating the crawl space with CleanSpace. This proposal would uplift and stabilize the home, while also providing a dry crawl space. Our installation crew started by putting the SmartJacks in place. This consisted of placing the steel plates on crushed stone to create a sturdy base, attaching the steel beams to those plates, and then attaching those beams to the supplemental support beam that was installed and leveled. With the SmartJacks in place, the team could then move forward with encapsulating the crawl space with CleanSpace. This vapor barrier was applied to the entire crawl space. Finally, our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was put in place.

This solution by our team delivers stability to the entire home and a dry and insulated crawl space. The benefits of these features include leveled floors, protection from insects and critters, a comfortable living space, and better air quality. The homeowner really enjoyed the result.

This homeowner in Hillsborough, New Hampshire, had lived in their home for the past 17 years. About a year ago the homeowners noticed an odor and moisture seeping into their home from the crawlspace. They called EFS for a free inspection and our Design Specialist met with the homeowner. Our Specialist recommended installing CleanSpace and a SaniDry Sedona in the crawlspace to address the moisture and odor concerns. 

Our crew installed over 800 sqft of CleanSpace and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to gain control of the moisture and odor down in the crawlspace. 

In North Sutton, NH, a concerned homeowner detected troubling odors and moisture in their crawl space shortly after moving in.

Our innovative system ensures this home now rests on a clean, dry, and healthy foundation, resolving pre-existing odors and moisture issues efficiently.

A homeowner of a modern-day log cabin has lived in the home for the past 10 years. About 4 years ago a neighbor built a home on the property next to theirs. The new home changed the way water drains away from the home. Shortly after the home was built they noticed that water was collecting inside their crawlspace. They call EFS for a free inspection. Our Design Specialist inspected the basement and then recommended installing SmartPipe, SuperSump, and exterior drainage to prevent the water from collecting inside the crawlspace and then pumping the water away from the foundation of the home.
