Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Hampstead, New Hampshire, had just purchased their home and they had an inspector look at their home. The inspector noted a concerning crack in their foundation. The homeowners called EFS for a free inspection. EFS didn't find the crack to be of any concern and sealed the crack and placed a crack monitor on it. But our Design Specialist did notice a sagging beam in their garage. We recommended installing 2 SmartJacks to add support to the beam. 

In Hampstead, NH, these homeowners were increasingly worried about noticeable cracks in their foundation. Concerned for their home's stability, they reached out to us. As seen in the 'before' photo, the extent of cracking raised pressing concerns. Our solution? The installation of a Push Pier system. Notice in the 'after' photo, not only is the structural integrity of the house restored, but our intervention also reassures lasting peace of mind, embodying our promise for a reliable foundation fix.

A new owner of a home in Newton, Massachusetts, purchased their home about a week ago. During the pre-purchase inspection, it was brought to their attention that one of the foundation walls was bowing. This concerned the homeowners so they reached out to EFS for a free inspection of their foundation wall. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowner and examined the foundation wall. After the inspection, we recommend installing an Auxiliary Wall over the bowing wall. 

Our installation team installed a 41-foot Auxilary Wall over the bowing foundation to stabilize the foundation wall. 

The floors in this home were sagging and settling more and more over time. The owners had been using temporary supports to minimize the damage, but eventually needed a more permanent solution. Erickson Foundation Supportworks installed several Smart Jack posts to address the issue. The homeowner then had a carpenter come in to help renovate the lower level of them where the ceiling and floor were affected. 

This homeowner in Lawrence, Massachusetts, purchased their home 8 months ago knowing repairs would have to be made. The first problem they wanted to address was the floors not being level. They called EFS for a free inspection of their floors. The Design Specialist inspected the floors. They recommended installing SmartJacks and Supplemental beams to level and stabilize the floor. 

A crew from EFS installed 4 SmartJacks and 12' of Supplemental beam. They fixed the SmartJacks to the Supplemental beam which is supporting the rafters. The crew pours concrete over the footing of the SmartJacks to lock them into place.
