Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In Newmarket, NH, a homeowner faced a troubling sight: their cherished home's integrity compromised by a fieldstone foundation wall bowing inward, visible in the 'before' photo. Recognizing the critical need for stability, we at Erickson Foundation Solutions jumped into action, offering a robust, lasting remedy. Notice the transformation in the 'after' photo – utilizing StableLock, we integrated PowerBraces with rebar-enhanced concrete, crafting a resilient auxiliary wall. Witness our commitment to ensuring home safety and delivering peace of mind through tangible results.

A homeowner in Newmarket, New Hampshire, recently purchased their home but during the inspection of their home, the inspector noted a slope in their main floor. The homeowner was concerned with the stability of the floors for future projects. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their floors. Our Design Specialist recommended replacing the wooden support in the crawlspace with SmartJacks. 

Our team installed 11 SmarkJacks into the crawlspace to lift, level, and stabilize the floor above. 

This homeowner in Amesbury, Massachusetts was experiencing sagging floors in their home. Design Specialist Brian Allen came to the home and proposed a Smart Jacks System to counteract the effects of sagging floors. Crew Lead Jon Provost and his team installed Smart Jacks into the basement. Installing Smart Jacks into the basement permanently added support to the interior of the home and reversed further sagging.

Chris S. of Durham, NH was experiencing some foundational issues under their garage that caused the concrete ceiling to start to crumble. Chris called EFS to see if they could assist in fixing his garage. Design Specialist, Nate Erickson, came out to the property and inspected the garage to see what is causing the ceiling to start to crumble. Nate found that in a cellar under the garage there is a crack that is caused the foundation to weaken. The crack has weakened the foundation which has caused movement and cracked the ceiling. Nate proposed that the Erickson Crew install a galvanized sheet to cover the crumbling ceiling, then installed a couple of beams that will span the width of the garage to secure the ceiling. Then to finish it off install PolyLEVEL to stabilize and level the foundation. 

Crew Lead Scott Crandall and his team came to the home and installed the galvanized sheets on the ceiling and then installed a couple of I-beams across the width of the garage.

After the sheets and I-beams were installed, a second crew came to the home. The PolyLEVEL Crew led by Nick Melo came to the home and injected PolyLEVEL into the areas that were out of level. 

Chris was happy to see that his garage was structurally sound again.

In Lynn, MA, the homeowner faced the challenge of sunken kitchen floors due to failing wooden and temporary support posts in the basement. As you can see in the before photo, this compromised not only the floor stability but also the overall safety of the home. To address this issue, we installed the SmartJack® System. In the after photo, note how the galvanized steel columns securely lift and stabilize the crawl space beams and floor joists. Our solution effectively restored the floor to its original elevation, ensuring long-term stability and peace of mind.
