Erickson Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Acton, Massachusetts noticed bouncy and unlevel floors in her home. Looking to get them redone, she first wanted to ensure that she had stable floors. She had temporary jacks in her basement in order to support the above floor, but was in search of a more permanent solution.

Our Design Specialist, George Gouthier, recommended installing SmartJacks in the basement to support and stabilize the home. These SmartJacks, similar to Lally columns, offer superior support and are adjustable if settling occurs in the future. Once installed, the SmartJacks are raised to level the floor, providing permanent stability.

The homeowner can now redo her floors with confidence!

A homeowner in Acton, Massachusetts has lived in his home for the past 30 years and always had water enter his garage. With the situation getting progressively worse over time, water now enters the basement as well. Basement floods have caused damage to the bottom steps, forcing him to remove them. With the stress of foundation leaks becoming too much to bear, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions to waterproof the basement.

Our Design Specialist, Mark Proctor, recommended installing perimeter drainage and our TripleSafe sump pump system. This captures water along the foundation walls before being exposed to the basement, and is then delivered to the sump basin, where our three-pump system pumps the unwanted water out of the home through an exterior discharge line.

This before and after photo comparison highlights our crew's ability to bury the discharge system while leaving a minimal trace of the ground being dug up. The 25' of discharge line extended to the end of the backyard, providing a safe location for water to be disposed of. IceGuard was installed to this plumbing system to prohibit water from freezing in the pipes. This prevents the sump system getting backed up, eliminating the possibility of the sump basin overflowing and filling the basement with water.

With the systems installed, this homeowner now has peace of mind that his basement will always stay dry!

A homeowner, having just moved into a new residence, emphasized the need to restore their pool deck. The concrete had shifted and become uneven due to settlement, posing hazardous trip risks. In pursuit of a company that could ensure the safety and aesthetic appeal of the pool deck, they contacted Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Our Design Specialist, Jim Meglio, recommended the use of PolyLevel and NexusPro for the restoration of the concrete deck. PolyLevel, which is a polyurethane foam, was injected beneath the concrete slabs to fill any voids and stabilize the structure. Slab jacks were employed to ensure the concrete was level. Following this, NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant, was applied to the joints and cracks to prevent future damage and movement.

Upon viewing the completed work during the final walkthrough, the homeowner was thrilled to find the pool in his new residence safe and prepared for use!

In Acton, MA, a commercial property faced a serious issue – a walkway turned trip hazard that unfortunately led to an injury. Our team at Erickson Foundation Solutions quickly jumped into action. Using PolyLevel and NexusPro, we provided an efficient and effective fix. As shown in the before photo, the uneven surfaces posed a danger, but post-repair, noticeable in the after photo, we restored safety and peace of mind. Our commitment to durability and customer satisfaction ensures these walkways won’t just look better—they’ll be safer for everyone.

Alberto B. of Contoocook, New Hampshire has a foundation that is a combination of concrete and fieldstone and the foundation walls have cracks in them. One of the cracks in the fieldstone part of the basement is so bad you can see daylight through the wall. Alberto wants to fix these problems for his kids. He called Erickson Foundation Solutions to see if they could come out and look at his foundation and solve his concerns. 

Design Specialist Royce Potts came to Alberto's home and inspected the foundation. Royce proposed that EFS will install auxiliary walls in the areas of concern.

Crew Lead Jon Provost and his team came to the home and installed 16' of auxiliary wall to the basement.
