Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Georgetown, Massachusetts, has lived in their home for the past 10 years and had noticed the doors and windows of their 4 season porch were difficult to open and close. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection of the porch to determine what had caused this issue. Our Design Specialist discovered that the difficulty of opening and closing the doors and windows stemmed from the supports under the porch being settled. We recommended installing 3 Helical Piers with porch brackets under the porch to stabilize it. 

A homeowner in Revere, Massachusetts, had called an engineer because their floors looked like they weren't supported and they were sloping. The engineer recommended installing supplemental beams. The homeowner called EFS for a free inspection of their basement and our Design Specialist recommended supplemental beams but to additionally replace the existing supports with our SmartJacks. 

This homeowner in West Newbury, Massachusetts had a fieldstone foundation that is starting to bulge in one corner. Design Specialist John Merna inspected the fieldstone foundation and proposed that Erickson Crew install an auxiliary wall to the foundation to stop the bulging and reinforce that area. Crew Lead Jon Provost and his crew installed the auxiliary wall and were able to secure the fieldstone foundation. 

This homeowner in Newmarket, New Hampshire has the concrete slab in the basement that was sinking. Recent storms have allowed water to start entering the basement. The homeowner would like to prevent water from getting in and fix the concrete slab. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection. 

Design Specialist Michael Bradley inspected the home. Michael recommended our team demolish the old slab, pour a new slab with a soil vapor barrier, and install 11 SmartJacks for support.

Crew Lead Chris Tremblay and his team arrived at the home and demolished the slab, installed a vapor barrier and gravel fill, then installed SmartJacks, and finally poured a new slab. 

A homeowner in Newmarket, New Hampshire, lives in a home built over 100 years ago. The homeowners have concerns with the floor system of their home and decided to call EFS for a free inspection. We recommended installing 6 SmartJacks into the basement to strengthen the floor system of the home.
