Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Watertown, Massachusetts, had just moved into their home and they had their home inspected by a home inspector. The inspector recommended having the sill plate looked at by someone. The homeowners call EFS for a free inspection of their sill plate. EFS inspected the sill plate but found nothing to be concerned with. But upon examining the basement our Design Specialist found that one of the beams in the basement appeared to be sagging. We recommended installing a SmartJack under the sagging beam in the basement. 

A homeowner in Arlington, Massachusetts, had concerns with the chimney and wall of their 100+-year-old home. The homeowners have lived in their home for 20+ years and over the past five years, they noticed chimney movement and water entering from their garage foundation wall. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection. Our design specialist recommended installing Helical Piers to add stability to the chimney and the wall and then installing an Auxiliary Wall to the wall that the chimney was leaning on to add support to that wall. 

Our production team installed 4 Helical Piers to the foundation wall and then installed an Auxiliary wall to the foundation wall to stabilize the chimney.
