Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Lowell, Massachusetts, had sagging and bouncing floors on their main floor. The homeowner wanted to have the floors fixed correctly so they reached out to EFS for a free inspection. Our team inspected the home and recommended installing lally columns and SmartJacks into the crawlspace.   

This homeowner in Windham, NH had a crack in their foundation wall, which had been patched over the years, but still let in moisture. They needed a more permanent fix. We sealed the crack with a polyurethane injection, which expands inside the crack as a foam and reaches far into the cravice to prevent the water from coming through. The surface of the crack is then coated with an epoxy to add an extra layer of protection. This two part system guarantees no further moisture will come in through the foundation crack.

In the before photo, taken in Windham, NH, you can see the issues caused by cinderblocks failing to support a home's foundation, as they had sunk into the soil. Fortunately, Erickson Foundation Solutions provided a permanent remedy by installing our Helical Pier system, effectively relocating the load from unstable soils to stable ground. By attaching a block of wood to the piers under the siding, we ensured lasting stability for the home. Our expert intervention safeguards the homeowner's asset, maintaining property value and enhancing overall quality of life.

This older foundation on a home in Derry, NH was part stone and part concrete. The stone parts were crumbling and allowing for soil to be pouring into the basement area. The overall stability of the wall was poor, and so Erickson installed an auxillary wall along with some PowerBraces to fully stabilize the wall and clean up the look of the basement.

This homeowner in Derry, New Hampshire has lived in their home for the past 49 years. Over the last 2-3 years they noticed a crack in their detached garage. They are worried about a collapse in their garage. So the homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection. 

A Design Specialist inspected the home and recommended a solution. The solution for this homeowner's garage was to install Geolocks at the back of the garage. 

The EFS Crew installed 4 Geolock onto the back of the home.
