Portsmouth, NH 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.

Job Stories From Portsmouth, NH
Water Runoff From Driveway Entering Garage, Portsmouth, NH

A homeowner in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, had water from their driveway coming into their garage. The homeowners have had this happening for about a year and would like to find a solution to this issue. The homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection and our Design Specialist Isaac recommended installing Trench Drain, SuperSump, and Ice Guard into the garage to collect any water and pump it out. 

Our installation team began by chipping out thin sections of concrete across the width of the garage and then up under the door on the left side of the garage. By the door on the left side of the garage, the team dug out a bigger section of concrete to fit our SuperSump. The team plumbed our sump pump through the wall to the outside of the home where we installed an IceGuard and a discharge line to send the water away from the home. From the sump, the team installed Trench Drain under the door and across the width of the garage. The TrenchDrain will collect any water that enters the garage and will guide it to the SuperSump. The team performed a water test on the TrenchDrain to ensure the system works before laying concrete around the TrenchDrain and SuperSump. 

The homeowner was very pleased with the result of the project. They no longer worry about having water enter their garage. 

Garage Items Need Protection from Water, Newington, NH

A homeowner in Newington, New Hampshire, has water entering their garage. The homeowner found that water was entering the garage from the control joints. The water was threatening to damage personal belongings in the garage. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection and our Design Specialist Jason recommended installing WaterGuard and a SuperSump to collect any water entering the garage and then using NexusPro to seal the control joints on the garage floor.

Our production team began by chipping out concrete on the right wall of the garage to install the WaterGuard so it can collect water and direct it to the sump pump. After the WaterGuard and SuperSump were installed the team then covered them in a thin layer of concrete to conceal them. Next, the team plumbed the sump pump and installed the drainage line to the exterior of the garage. Once the entire system was set up the team then used NexusPro to seal the joints in the concrete. The NexusPro will prevent water from seeping onto the garage floors. 

With the system installed the homeowners haven't seen any water entering the garage anymore.

ERV Installation, Portsmouth, NH

A homeowner in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, lived in an 1880s home for the past 10 years. Earlier this year, the homeowner's were worried about the air quality in their house. They had a radon mitigation system installed but still felt like the air quality in their home could be better. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection and our design specialist Chris Greenwood recommended installing an ERV system and a SaniDry into the basement to improve the air quality in their home. 

The production team began by mounting the ERV system to the wall in the basement. After it was mounted the team then set up the 4 outlets/intakes. After the outlets and intakes were installed the team then moved on to installing the SaniDry Sedona in the basement. 

The ERV will bring fresh air into the home and remove old stale air while the SaniDry will keep the humidity in the home at a comfortable level. 

The homeowners were pleased with the results of the installation. They are confident the air in their home is the best it's ever been. 

Mitigate Radon and Water Before Finishing Basement, Portsmouth, NH

A homeowner in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, had finished building their home in 2013 and moved in right after it was complete. The homeowners realized shortly after moving in that water was seeping into the basement and they were concerned about radon levels. The homeowners wanted to finish their basement so they could have more useable space but needed to make sure the water and radon weren't going to ruin the finished basement. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection. Our design specialist recommended installing a Radon Mitigation System, NexusPro, A SaniDry, UltraSump, and IceGuard in the basement to prevent water and radon from seeping in. 

Our production team began by setting up the UltraSump to be installed. The team chipped out a small section of concrete and removed some dirt so they could fit the UltraSump basin. Once the UltraSump was installed the team then poured concrete around the basin to lock it in place. As the concrete was curing the team used a core drill to make the extraction point for the radon system. Once the extraction point was made the team then attached a PVC pipe to the extraction point. The PVC pipe was fed to the exterior of the home where the radon fan will be installed. The team installed the radon fan on the exterior of the home and connected the PVC pipe to the fan so the radon air collected from beneath the slab can be sent out into the open air to dissipate. After the radon system was installed the team began installing the IceGuard and the drainage line connected to the UltraSump. The team attached the IceGuard to the beginning of the drainage line and then made sure the line extended 10' away from the home. 

The homeowner was very pleased with the results of the project. They won't have to worry about water and radon ruining their basement once they finish it. 

Radon and Waterproofing Concerns, Portsmouth, NH

A homeowner in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, had some radon and waterproofing concerns in their home. The home had a finished basement and a 5.5ft tall crawlspace with crushed stone along the floor. The homeowner was worried that the crushed stone would allow moisture and radon into the crawlspace and the rest of the home. Our design specialist recommended installing a radon mitigation system with 2 extraction points and then encapsulating the crawlspace with Draining Matting and CleanSpace. 

Our team began by determining the location of the two extraction points for the radon mitigation system. The team installed one extraction point in the crawlspace and one in the finished basement. After they made the extraction points they began to connect PVC to the extraction point and run the PVC pipe to the exterior of the home. Once the PVC pipe was directed to the exterior of the home the team began to install the radon fan to the exterior of the home. After the team secured the fan to the siding of the home the team connected the PVC pipe to the radon fan and vented the system above the roofline. 

Next, the team began laying down Drainage Matting to start the encapsulation process of the crawlspace. The Drainage Matting will allow water and air to freely travel underneath the encapsulation but not enter the crawlspace. After the matting was installed the team then began installing the CleanSpace over it. The team used a combination of sheets of CleanSpace and CleanSpace Tape to encapsulate the entire crawlspace.

The homeowner was happy their radon and waterproofing needs were met. The homeowners no longer have to worry about radon and water/ moisture getting into the basement/ crawlspace. 

Brick Columns In Basement Need To Be Replaced, Portsmouth, NH

A homeowner in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, recently purchased a home that was built in 1900. The home had unlevel floors that they would like to repair and the basement had brick columns that the homeowner would like to have replaced. The homeowner reached out to EFS for a free inspection, and our design specialist recommended replacing the brick columns with SmartJacks to stabilize and level the floors above.

Our team began by setting up temporary posts around the basement. After the temp posts were installed, the team began removing the brick columns from the basement. Next, the team chipped out the concrete where the old brick supports were installed. Once a section of concrete was removed the team dug down and set rebar into the hole. After, the team created a base for the SmartJack by pouring concrete into the hole with the rebar. The team let the concrete cure before installing the SmartJacks. When the concrete was cured the team secured the SmartJack to the beam above and the footing onto the newly cured concrete base. Once the team made sure the SmartJacks are leveled, they poured concrete over the footings to lock them into place. Once all of the SmartJacks were installed the team used the adjustable top to lift on the beam and level the floor.

The homeowners were very pleased with the SmartJacks installation. The homeowners no longer have to worry about the supports in their basement failing.
