This homeowner in Saugus, Massachusetts, purchased their home this year but hasn't moved into the home yet because of some foundation concerns. They called EFS for a free inspection and our Design Specialist Kenny Calabrese inspected their foundation and recommended installing 12 Push Piers to the right side of their home.

This homeowner in Georgetown, Massachusetts, had a foundation wall in their basement that was made up of stone and brick. The home was made in the 1800s and the homeowners have seen over the last decade that the walls seem to be flexing inward. The homeowner plans to pass the home along to their daughter but would like to have the home in better condition. The homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their foundation. After the inspection, the Design Specialist recommended installing an Auxiliary Wall over the bulging wall to prevent further movement.
A homeowner in West Newbury, Massachusetts was concerned with the amount of water leaking through her basement walls. She turned to Erickson Foundation Solutions to solve the problem.
After scheduling an appointment through our Customer Care Specialist, a Design Specialist went to the home to conduct a free inspection. Our Design Specialist noticed that the homeowner's basement wall was heavily cracked and bowing in, which is what was causing it to leak. Unfortunately, bowing walls are a sign of much worse problems. Thankfully, our free inspection allowed the homeowner to be aware of the bowing brick and fieldstone foundation and offer a solution before potentially collapsing. Our Design Specialist recommended installing our PowerBrace Wall Repair System to stop further damage and potentially straighten the wall. We also recommended installing a waterproofing system, but emphasized that fixing the bowing wall should be the priority. The homeowner understood the importance of the situation and opted to get the PowerBrace installed.
After our installation crew installed the auxiliary wall, they also offered advice to help keep the basement dry until a waterproofing system is put in place. With this wall support system in place, the basement foundation wall is now stabilized, and the house is properly supported.
