Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, moved into their home last October. The previous homeowners noted before they sold the home that there was a crack in the foundation wall behind the garage. The new homeowner decided they wanted to fix the issues before they got any worse so they called EFS for a free inspection of their foundation. Our Design Specialist inspected the entire foundation and recommended installing 3 Geolocks onto the back wall of the garage foundation to straighten and stabilize the foundation wall. 

A homeowner in Fitchburg, Massachusetts had concerns regarding her constantly wet basement. Her existing sump pump failing had led to ankle-deep water puddling in corners of the basement and mold growth. With the homeowner's daughter being allergic to mold, it was essential to waterproof the basement.

Our Design Specialist, Mark Proctor, recommended installing our TripleSafe sump pump system. Unlike other sump systems, the TripleSafe is composed of three pumps. When water gets filtered to the sump basin, the first pump is activated to dispose of the unwanted water. When water levels rise, which can occur during heavy rains or snow melting, the second pump is activated to ensure the sump basin doesn't overflow. Lastly, a battery-powered backup pump adds an extra layer of protection in the event of emergency such as a power outage. Additionally, our installation crew installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. This eliminates moisture in the basement, promoting healthy air quality by removing mold spores and other toxins.

With our basement waterproofing systems installed, mold is subdued, and the basement stays dry all the time!

A 1920s home in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, had been purchased two years ago and the home inspector noticed that the floor system was sagging. The homeowner called EFS for a free inspection of the basement and the supports. Our Design Specialist inspected the basement and recommended installing 7 SmartJacks in the basement to eliminate the sagging and add support to the floor system. Our team installed the new supports and lift-up on the floor system to level them and stabilize them. 

A homeowner in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, had lived in their home for the past 23 years. Over the last couple of years, they have noticed their front steps were sinking and aren't level anymore. The homeowners have both had knee and hip replacements and want to make sure they can use the stairs safely. They called EFS for a free inspection of their home. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowners and inspected the steps. He confirmed that the stairs were sinking and way out of level. We recommended installing a new set of stairs and a railing to allow the homeowners to use the steps safely. 

A homeowner in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts noticed the concrete around the pool deck was sinking and becoming unlevel. Previous sealant installed to joints also began to crack, leaving an undesirable look. Looking to level the concrete before matters became worse, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.
Our Design Specialist, Jim Meglio, recommended installing PolyLevel to lift and level the concrete. The polyurethane foam was injected underneath the slabs in the sunken area, filly voids to instantly lift the concrete. After the installation crew leveled the concrete tiling, NexusPro was installed to the joints to seal them. NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially engineered to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won't crack, bubble or dry.

With PolyLevel and NexusPro installed to the pool deck, it is now lifted, leveled, and stabilized. Tripping hazards are eliminated while also providing a new attractive look!
