Expert Concrete Leveling & Concrete Sealing Company in Providence, RI

In Providence, RI, a concerned homeowner recently encountered a significant issue in their crawl space. While a carpenter was at work, they noticed that the makeshift supports in the crawl space were inadequately sustaining the floors above. This presented a potential risk to the structural integrity of the home. Recognizing the urgency, the homeowner reached out to us at Erickson Foundation Solutions for expertise.

Upon receiving their call, our Customer Care Specialist promptly scheduled a thorough home inspection. A qualified System Design Specialist from our team visited the property and conducted a comprehensive assessment. It was clear that the crawl space required enhanced support to ensure long-term stability. We recommended the SmartJack® system, a robust solution designed to stabilize crawl space beams and floor joists. Our production team, consisting of experienced installers, executed the plan with precision. The installation began with preparing a solid base of engineered fill to address the weak foundation soils. Then, galvanized steel columns were cut to the necessary length, placed on a 12-inch steel base, and secured with adjustable top brackets to the existing girders. The installation was seamless, with heavy-duty threaded rods providing the needed adjustment to restore the floors above to their original elevation, and to limit any floor "bounce".

By the end of the job, the crawl space was structurally sound, with the SmartJack® system in place ensuring permanent support. The homeowner expressed appreciation for our professional service and admired the swift resolution of their crawl space issue. At Erickson Foundation Solutions, we take pride in delivering superior customer service and permanent solutions to homeowners, reinforcing the safety and stability of their homes.

In Providence, RI, a homeowner envisioned transforming their front patio into a welcoming space by adding a new deck. However, this dream project was challenged by the cracked and settling concrete beneath, posing a significant concern for the stability of the deck. Recognizing the importance of addressing these foundational issues, the homeowner contacted Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Upon receiving the call, our Customer Care Specialist promptly scheduled a home inspection. Our System Design Specialist, through a thorough inspection, diagnosed the problem: an unstable concrete slab that required immediate attention for any new construction, like a deck, to be deemed reliable. To provide a lasting solution, our experienced production team decided on utilizing PolyLevel and NexusPro. PolyLevel, with its high-strength polyurethane foam, was injected beneath the concrete through pea-sized holes. This process stabilized, lifted, and leveled the slabs, filling the voids underneath and ensuring a solidified and stable surface. Following PolyLevel, NexusPro Joint Sealant was applied, effectively sealing the cracks and joints. This application protects against water infiltration, which can otherwise erode underlying soil, compromising concrete strength over time.

The outcome was significant: the concrete was not only solidified and leveled but also visibly rejuvenated with joints sealed to withstand seasonal changes. This ensured that when the homeowner proceeded with their deck construction, the new addition would be anchored on a reliably stable platform. At Erickson Foundation Solutions, we are committed to redefining the construction experience with permanent solutions and exemplary service.

When a Providence homeowner made plans to build a new deck, they quickly realized their concrete patio presented a huge stumbling block. Worried that years of unaddressed settling and cracking would jeopardize their dream outdoor space, they turned to us at Erickson Foundation Solutions for help.

Upon initial contact, our dedicated Customer Care team quickly set up an appointment, showing our commitment to solving homeowners' issues efficiently. A visit from our knowledgeable System Design Specialist revealed that beneath the cracks and settling was a case we were all too familiar with and perfectly equipped to handle. Our recommendation? PolyLevel—a powerful, proven solution designed to stabilize and lift settling concrete. Understanding how unsettling home repairs can be, our foreman Nick Melo and a team of hardworking installers ensured the homeowner was comfortable with each step of the process. With precision, we injected PolyLevel beneath the problematic patio, watching it not only lift but also level out, returning stability and integrity to the surface. This non-invasive procedure not only saved the sanctuary of their front yard but also promised a robust foundation for their upcoming deck. By adjourning the project, meticulous cleanup was the finishing touch to a job that restored both the homeowner's concrete patio and their peace of mind. The homeowner was not only relieved but thrilled to progress with their decking project without delay. At Erickson Foundation Solutions, it was another reminder of our mission—providing not just fixes, but lasting solutions and remarkable experiences to the communities we serve.
