In Framingham, MA, a homeowner faced significant concerns as their garage floor and stoop began to show signs of distress. Both areas were sinking and developing noticeable cracks, posing a structural risk and potential safety hazard. Recognizing the need for professional assistance, they reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Immediately upon contact, our Customer Care Specialist arranged for a home inspection. Our System Design Specialist Kenneth Calabrese then conducted a comprehensive assessment, identifying the root of the issue: compromised soil beneath the concrete, which was leading to the unsightly sinking and cracking. With our company's commitment to transparent and efficient service, we outlined our proposed solution, leveraging state-of-the-art techniques. To tackle the challenge, our experienced production team utilized the PolyLevel® system. This involved diligently drilling pea-sized holes into the affected slabs and injecting high-strength polyurethane foam. Its expansion effect successfully lifted the slabs to their original positions, ensuring both stability and durability. To prevent future issues related to water infiltration and soil erosion, we applied NexusPro® Joint Sealant to the visible cracks and joints. This premium sealant outperforms traditional alternatives by maintaining its integrity through extreme weather changes, promising long-term protection against elements that could wash away soil and exacerbate concrete issues.

Following the procedure, the homeowner was relieved to find the garage floor and stoop secured and visually refreshed. Our meticulous process restored not just the structural soundness of their property, boosting value and peace of mind.

When a homeowner in Framingham, MA contacted us, their concern was centered around elevated radon levels in the home’s finished basement, which was being used as a living space for their mother-in-law. A test had revealed that the radon level was at 6 picocuries per liter, warranting immediate attention. Understanding the potential health risks this presented, the homeowner reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions for our expert service and long-lasting solutions.

Our Customer Care Specialist promptly scheduled a home inspection. Our System Design Specialist Arthur Thibeault from our team visited to perform a comprehensive inspection of the home. After diagnosing the extent of the radon infiltration, they recommended installing a radon mitigation system to bring the levels down to a safe standard. Our installation team completed the process with precision and professionalism. The mitigation system, tailored to fit the specific layout and needs of the home, involved strategically locating pipes and a fan to effectively draw the radon from the house and vent it outside. Our crew ensured minimal disruption to the home's interior, maintaining cleanliness and respecting the homeowner’s space. The result was a substantial reduction in radon levels, successfully lowering the concentration to below the EPA's safety threshold.

A family in Framingham, MA, concerned about the health implications of elevated radon levels in their home, reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions when their radon readings consistently displayed 8 picocuries per liter—double the EPA's recommended safety level. Understanding the potential risks associated with prolonged radon exposure, they sought a partner they could trust to deliver a lasting solution.

The process began with a prompt consultation arranged by our dedicated Customer Care Specialist. Shortly thereafter, a System Design Specialist from Erickson Foundation Solutions conducted a comprehensive inspection of the property. After diagnosing the radon issue, we proposed the installation of a radon mitigation system—an efficient approach to significantly reduce radon concentrations and alleviate the homeowners' concerns. Our expert production team quickly got to work, guided by meticulous foreman Kyle DeChane, to fit the radon mitigation system seamlessly within the home. Using our proven methodologies, we created a depressurization system by inserting a PVC pipe through the basement floor, utilizing a fan to channel the radon harmlessly above the roofline where it dissipates safely.

The installation was completed with precision and care, ensuring that any disruption was minimal and cleaning thoroughly after the process. After the system was fully operational, independent tests displayed a considerable reduction in the radon levels, which moved into safe territory, thus restoring peace of mind for the entire family.

At Erickson Foundation Solutions, we recently had the opportunity to help a homeowner in Framingham, MA who was facing a common but troublesome issue. Their back patio had developed unsightly cracks and had begun to sink slightly, causing concern for not only the aesthetic appeal but also the safety and integrity of their outdoor living space. Understanding the importance of a swift and effective solution, our team sprang into action.

After the homeowner reached out to our Customer Care Team, we promptly scheduled an inspection. One of our experienced System Design Specialists Mark Proctor visited the home, carefully examined the problem area, and diagnosed the root cause of the sinking and cracking patio. The recommended solution was highly efficient yet minimally invasive - installing our advanced PolyLevel, NexusPro, and SealantPro products. The real magic happened when our production team arrived. Our skilled foreman Nick Melo and installers worked diligently, first utilizing PolyLevel to lift and stabilize the underlying concrete with precision. This innovative foam injection process not only addresses the sinking issue but does so in a way that minimizes disruption and delivers quick results. Following this, we applied NexusPro to seal the cracks, providing long-lasting flexibility and protection against further damage. The final touch was applying SealantPro, a protective coating that extends the life of concrete by shielding it against various elements, ensuring that the beauty and functionality of the patio are preserved for years to come.

The outcome? A fully restored patio that looked as good as new. The homeowner was delighted with the transformation and incredibly relieved to see their outdoor space revitalized without the hassle of a lengthy or intrusive overhaul.

At Erickson Foundation Solutions, we recently had the pleasure of helping a homeowner in Framingham, MA, with a problematic sidewalk leading to their front door. As many of us know, the transition from the driveway to your doorstep should be smooth and welcoming, but for this homeowner, it had become a slanted, unsettling pathway that not only detracted from the home's curb appeal but also posed a tripping hazard.

Upon contacting our Customer Care team, we promptly scheduled an initial home inspection to understand the depth of the issue. Our System Design Specialist, Jim Meglio visited the home, thoroughly examined the sidewalk, and diagnosed that the underlying soil had settled unevenly over time, causing the concrete to shift. To address this vexing issue, we recommended a combination of PolyLevel injection and NexusPro joint sealant as the most effective and efficient solutions. Our PolyLevel product is a state-of-the-art foam that we inject beneath the concrete, which then expands to lift and level the slabs to their original position. It's a quick process with minimal disruption, and most importantly, it's a long-term fix as opposed to a mere band-aid. Following the PolyLevel injection, we applied NexusPro, a flexible joint sealant that protects against future water erosion and ensures the durability and longevity of the repair.

The homeowners were thrilled to see the transformation. Within a matter of hours, their slanted sidewalk was corrected to a level path that was both safe and visually appealing. The immediate lifting effect provided by PolyLevel, coupled with the protective seal of NexusPro, ensured that the homeowner won’t have to worry about this problem for years to come.

Recently, we had the opportunity to assist a homeowner in Framingham, MA, who faced a rather frustrating ordeal with their basement. Despite having a sump pump installed, they noticed it just couldn't keep up, especially with the added challenge posed by their home's addition. What's worse, mold began to make an unwelcome appearance due to the persistent moisture, turning their basement into a less than desirable space.

Upon contacting us at Erickson Foundation Solutions, the homeowner was greeted by our dedicated Customer Care team who promptly arranged for a home inspection. It was during this inspection that our System Design Specialist, Mark Procter, discovered the root of their woes; their existing sump pump system just wasn't equipped to handle the workload, and the lack of a reliable waterproofing solution had paved the way for mold growth. Understanding the pressing need for an effective and lasting solution, we recommended the installation of our TripleSafe Sump Pump system along with IceGuard. The TripleSafe Sump Pump is uniquely designed to offer triple the protection via our three-pump system, making it the powerhouse in managing water ingress, even during the heaviest of storms. Paired with IceGuard, a system designed to prevent clogs and freezing in the discharge line, we were confident these solutions would turn the tide against water and mold in their basement.

A homeowner in Framingham, Massachusetts, had a finished basement that the family used frequently. The homeowners were talking to a neighbor, and that neighbor had a radon system installed in their home. The homeowners were curious about radon so they did some research on it. They decided that they would like a radon mitigation system installed in their home. Our design specialist Kenny dropped off a CRM radon test kit 72 hours before his appointment with the homeowners to test the home for radon. When Kenny arrived for the appointment he reviewed the results with the homeowners. The results from the test came back at 9.8 pCi/L, which is above the recommended amount. Kenny recommended installing a radon mitigation system. 

Our production team led by Dillon installed a radon mitigation system in the home. To start the project the team determined where to drill the extraction point. On this job, the extraction point was drilled in the utility room. After the extraction point was exposed, the team used sections of PVC pipe to guide radon-filled air toward the fan. The fan will be located on the side of the home. From the fan, the team will use more PVC piping to vent the radon-filled air above the roofline. The team was able to reduce the radon levels in the home to a safe level.
