Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

Before foundation repair, the homeowners in Gilmanton, NH faced alarming vertical cracks, indicating severe settlement issues. These cracks threatened the structural integrity and safety of their home. Concerned for the stability and solidity of their residence, they reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions. Using our Push Pier System, we successfully stabilized the foundation and reversed the damage. As you can see, the home's foundation has been lifted back toward its original position, ensuring long-term security and function, and restoring the homeowner’s peace of mind and property value.

A home in Wilmington, Massachusetts, had an issue with the foundation sinking. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their foundation. Our Design Specialist Mark Proctor met with the homeowner and inspected all of their concerns. After the inspection, Mark recommended installing Helical Piers around the settling portion of the foundation. We installed a total of 8 Helical Piers around the sinking corner of the foundation. 

These homeowners in Mirror Lake, New Hampshire recently purchased their forever home. Before further investing in other home projects, they wanted to make sure the foundation was secure and safe. This led them to reach out to our Erickson Foundations Team to schedule a free inspection.

Justin Broussard carefully inspected the basement and then consulted with the homeowners. He noticed that one of their foundation walls was bowing extremely inward and was at risk of even potentially collapsing in. For a home that was built in the 1700's, it was crucial that this home got the support it needed. Justin recommended installing our PowerBrace auxiliary foundation wall. This wall stabilizes the fieldstone foundation. The homeowners recognized the importance of the situation and scheduled an installation date.

Once our installation crew had the auxiliary wall in place and completed the job, they had a walkthrough with the homeowners to go over the work that was done. The homeowners were very happy with the job knowing that their forever home is now supported by a strong foundation.

A homeowner in Center Barnstead, New Hampshire, had seen a crack start to form in their garage around 5 years ago. They have seen the crack get larger and decided they wanted to have it sealed. They called EFS and we found that the crack was caused by the concrete slab settling. We then recommended installing 3 Helical Piers under the right side of the garage, then using PolyLevel to lift and level the slab, and finally sealing the crack using NexusPro. 

A homeowner in North Reading, Massachusetts had been experiencing cracks in the basement. Not interested in a sump pump, he was curious to see what other waterproofing options existed. He reached out to us to further explore those options.
The common method of repairing basement wall cracks involves an injection of a polyurethane material that generally will fail over time due. This material dries into a firm substance that can't move with a wall. Since concrete naturally shrinks and is subject to pressure from soils, it's essential to have a crack repair system that can work with the wall's movement. FlexiSpan is the ideal solution to this problem. This flexible sealant is made of open cell foam and waterproof sealant.

FlexiSpan is designed to move with a wall, ensuring that the entire crack is sealed even if there is a change in the wall. This is a permanent solution that installs smoothly over a wall, and its neutral color will fit with a concrete wall. FlexiSpan can easily be covered up with a basement finishing product as well.
