Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

This home in Manchester, NH was dealing with very wet soil on the property due to a wet, rainy year. The saturated soils on the exterior of the foundation walls were pushing against the concrete and causing it to crack and bow into the basement. The project included rebuilding a section of wall, installing a waterproofing sump pump system, and reinforcing a section of foundation wall with PowerBrace wall anchors. 

This before and after features a view of the wall anchors installed in one section of the basement. The wall cracks are visible, and were caused by soils pushing against it with incredible force. With the PowerBrace supports in place, the concrete wall is permanently stabilized and will not bow in any further. The water is now also diverted to a sump pump system, which will help relieve the pressure in the soil.

A homeowner in Manchester, New Hampshire, purchased their home in August 2022. Recently they have noticed some bounciness in their floor system. They called EFS for a free inspection of their basement. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowner and recommended adding SmartJacks into the basement to stabilize the floor system. 

Our Installation team installed 5 SmartJacks into the basement to stabilize the floor system. 

This homeowner in Manchester, New Hampshire, had a 20-year-old crack in their basement wall. They had the crack repaired around 20 years ago. Now the crack has started leaking again.

Josh Provost was the Crew Lead on this project. He and his team were able to make a permanent fix to the crack in their basement.

This homeowner in Manchester, New Hampshire has owned their home for about 5 years. They were having concerns with their supports and were worried about the floor collapsing. Our specialist designed a new layout for supports and our expert crews installed and replaced several lally columns, as well as some supplemental steel beams for reinforcement.

A contractor in Manchester, New Hampshire purchased a home in 2020 that the top floor caught on fire. The contractor planned to repair the home to make two rental units out of the property. They started repairing the top floor and they began to notice sloping and sagging on the main and second floors. The contractor/homeowner called EFS to come and inspect the home for a solution. Our team installed 6 lally columns under the main beam in the basement.
