Arlington, MA Local Concrete Leveling Expert

Sunken and cracked concrete around your home is not only an eyesore but is also a safety hazard. As time goes by, if the problem isn’t corrected, it will only get worse. However, you have no reason to fret when you have the professionals at Erickson Foundation Solutions doing the work. Our experts use PolyLevel, a strong, and durable foam material to lift your concrete slabs back into place. We drill small holes into the slab where the foam is injected and expands, raising the concrete into place. Many other contractors will use mudjacking, but our method doesn’t disturb the area, takes less drying time, and is more affordable.

After repairing your concrete, consider a durable concrete sealant that extends the life of your slabs by 3 to 5 times overall in just one quick application. Our SealantPro concrete sealant bonds with concrete on a molecular level to protect slabs against oil, gasoline, water, debris, and more. Whether you have new slabs or existing slabs, SealantPro will work for you! We also offer a translucent tinted concrete sealer, DecoShield, which adds a unique visual appeal to your home's slabs while preventing pitting, flaking, cracks, and other moisture-related issues.

Radon gas is produced from the decaying of rocks and soil and comes up from the ground into your crawlspace and basements. The way our radon mitigation systems works in a pipe collects the gases that are coming from the soil. The gas is then piped upwards where a depressurization vent forces the radon out from your home.

Job Stories From Arlington, MA
Porch Floors Were Sagging, Arlington, MA

A homeowner in Arlington, Massachusetts, had been experiencing sagging floors on the porch at the front of their home. They have seen the issue get worse over time and decided they wanted to find a solution to the problem. They called EFS for a free inspection of their porch. Our Design Specialist Liam FitzPatrick met with the homeowner and inspected the supports under the porch. He found the support was allowing the floors to sag and proposed replacing them with Helical Piers. 

Our Installation Team led by Edward N. began by removing the outside wall of the porch to gain access to the supports. Once the supports were exposed the team then set up temporary posts so they could install the Helical Piers. The team used our hydraulic drive head to push the Helical Piers into the ground to create a strong base to have the porch sit. Once the piers were pressurized to the proper PSI, the team then attached our porch brackets and cut 6x6 pt to bridge the bracket to the floor system of the porch. Once all of the support was secured, the team removed the temporary supports and re-installed the wall to complete the job.

Protect Basement from Water Intrusion, Arlington, MA

A homeowner in Arlington, Massachusetts had experienced a few instances of water collection in their basement over the past ten years. Wanting to finish the basement, the homeowner reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions for a free inspection. After inspecting the basement, our Design Specialist Tom Armano recommended a perimeter drainage system to prevent future water damage. 

Our Installation Team, led by Anthony LoCascio, began by creating a 6-inch wide trench around the perimeter of the basement. They then laid our WaterGuard and installed the UltraSump in the lowest corner of the basement. The two systems were integrated so that any water collected would be fed into the sump pump. Finally, the team mixed and poured concrete over the WaterGuard and UltraSump to secure them in place. 

Now that the threat of water damage is eliminated, the happy homeowners can proceed with finishing their basement.

Waterproof Basement Before Finishing the Space, Arlington, MA

A homeowner in Arlington, Massachusetts, lives in a home that was built in the 1950s. The homeowners have lived in the home for a decade and have seen the basement have water seep into only a handful of times. The homeowners were looking to finish the basement but wanted to address the water concerns first. The homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection. Our Design Specialist Tom recommended installing a Full Perimeter Drainage System into the basement to keep the basement dry all the time. 

Our Installation Team began by chipping out a basin for our sump pump and then the entire perimeter of the basement to install the perimeter drainage. In the basin, the team installed an UltraSump. The team installed the pump into the basin and plumbed the system to the exterior of the home where it will pump out any water that enters its liner. After the team had plumbed the system to the exterior of the home, the team returned to the basement and installed 102' of WaterGuard to the perimeter of the basement. Once the team inserted the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement they tested the system and then mixed concrete over the WaterGuard and around the basin of the UltraSump to lock them in place. 

With the perimeter drainage system installed in the home, the basement would be dry all the time. This will now allow the homeowner to begin the process of finishing their basement. 

2 Family Home With Water Entering the Finished Basement, Arlington, MA

The owner of a 2 family home in Arlington, Massachusetts, lives in the main level and finished basement and has tenants living on the top floor. The owner has seen water coming up from the floor in the basement. The floor was ripped up once and the owner doesn't want to do that again. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their finished basement. Our Design Specialist Keith recommended installing a perimeter drainage system in the affected area of the basement. The owner only found water collecting in one corner of the basement so Keith recommended placing a SuperSump in that corner of the basement with 18' of WaterGuard that will connect to the sump pump.

Our team chipped out a long and thin section of concrete against the wall so we could install our WaterGuard. In the corner of the basement where a closet was located, the team chipped out a larger section of concrete so we could install our SumpSump and integrate it with our WaterGuard. The team installed the WaterGuard and the sump into their respective spots. The team then plumbed the sump and tested the system before covering the WaterGuard and around the sump pump with a layer of concrete. While the concrete was curing the team installed the exterior drainage line into the yard. The EDL will make sure to expel the water at a minimum of 10' away from the foundation of the home. 

The owner of the 2 family home was very happy they don't have to rip up their entire floor again. The WaterGuard and SuperSump that our team installed will make sure that water will not collect in the finished portion of the basement again. 

Auxiliary Wall Installation, Arlington, MA

A homeowner in Arlington, Massachusetts, had concerns with the chimney and wall of their 100+-year-old home. The homeowners have lived in their home for 20+ years and over the past five years, they noticed chimney movement and water entering from their garage foundation wall. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection. Our design specialist recommended installing Helical Piers to add stability to the chimney and the wall and then installing an Auxiliary Wall to the wall that the chimney was leaning on to add support to that wall. 

Our production team began by setting up the Helical Piers first by chipping out small sections of concrete in their garage. The team chipped out four holes along the foundation wall so they could install the helical piers. The team used a hydraulic drive head to drill the helical pier into the ground until sufficient pressure was achieved. Once they achieve pressure on all of the helical piers the team then attached the bracket to the top of the pier and connected it to the foundation wall. After the brackets were secured to the foundation they backfilled dirt over them and repoured concrete. After the concrete was set the team then began setting up the PowerBraces for the Auxiliary Wall. The team installed three PowerBraces along the foundation wall to then set them in concrete to form the Auxiliary wall. The team used large wall forms to create the space for the team to pour the concrete for the Auxiliary Wall. When setting up the forms for the Auxiliary Wall the team had to work around the chimney cleanout door. Once all of the forms were set up the team had a concrete truck arrive on site to fill up the forms with concrete. Once the forms were filled with concrete the team then had to wait for the concrete to set. After a couple of days, the concrete had fully cured and the team removed the forms from the Auxiliary Wall. The team then removed any imperfections from the concrete.

The homeowner was very happy with the results of the project to add stability to their chimney.

Water Leaking into Basement, Arlington, MA

A homeowner in Arlington, Massachusetts, had recently built an addition to their home. The homeowners have lived in this home for 30 years and never had water in the basement, but since they've installed this new addition that hasn't been the case anymore. Water has been entering from the basement of the addition since it was installed. Our design specialist inspected the addition and recommended installing a full perimeter drain with a sump pump and a dehumidifier in the basement. 

Our production team began installing the waterproofing system that included, 78' of WaterGuard, IceGuard, SuperSump, and a SaniDry into the basement. The team first started by chipping out the concrete around the perimeter of the foundation, then installed the drainage system. The perimeter drain is linked up with the sump pump and the IceGuard. The guard is installed on the outside of the home to prevent a discharge line from freezing and backing up into the basement. Lastly, the team installed a powerful dehumidifier to reduce the relative humidity in the basement to prevent potential mold growth. 

 

SmartJacks and Poly Wall Restoration, Arlington, MA

Tom A. of Arlington, Massachusetts has a fieldstone foundation that was crumbling, and wanted to know what options he had. Tom had called EFS to see if they could send out someone out to look at his home. Erickson Foundation Solutions sent out Design Specialist Michael Bradley to the home. Michael inspected the basement of the home and proposed a Poly Foam to coat the inside of the fieldstone foundation and then SmartJacks to add support to some of the older beams in the home. 

Crew Lead Spencer Ladd and his team came to the home and sprayed the foam and installed the new SmartJacks into the basement. After the project, Tom actually likes the look more with the white foam finish than the untouched fieldstone.
