A homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire, has seen water entering their basement for the last two years. They called EFS for us to find a solution to prevent water from entering the basement. We recommended installing a TripleSafe Sump Pump in the basement to prevent water from collecting inside the basement.
Our team installed the TripleSafe in the lowest corner of the basement to collect any water that threatens to enter. The sump will keep the basement dry so the homeowner can create a TV Room/ Album Collection Room down there.
A homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire is looking to finish his basement. Leakage in the foundation was fairly minimal for the first 15 years of living in the home, but seepage has become a big issue over the past year. The homeowner is looking to waterproof the basement before finishing it to ensure that it will be protected. This led him to reach out to our Erickson team.
After scheduling an appointment through our Customer Care team, our Design Specialist Bryan Barnard went out to the home to offer a free inspection. He recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage, TripleSafe sump pump system, and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to waterproof the basement. The WaterGuard perimeter drainage system collects water along the border of the foundation footing without coming into contact with the basement walls or floor. This system then delivers the water to a basin that is made in the foundation. The TripleSafe sump pump system rests in that basin and connects to the WaterGuard system to pump the water out of the home. Once installed, these systems are cemented in place. An exterior drainage line is connected to the TripleSafe to allow the water to be pumped safely out of the home. The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier is then installed to the TripleSafe to reduce moisture and provide healthy air to create a comfortable living space.
With the waterproofing system in place, this homeowner can create his dream finished basement with peace of mind that it will remain dry!
The crawlspace on this home in Nashua, NH had a concrete wall with a large crack, which was all leaning in towards the top. Erickson Foundation Supportworks installed PowerBrace wall supports to stabilize the wall, and can also be tightened over time to slightly straighten the wall. The cracks were then also sealed.
This homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire had their house tested for radon. The test came back with high radon levels around 20 pCi/l. Design Specialist Paul Magowan came to the home and recommended the homeowner to have a radon mitigation system installed to reduce the amount of radon in the air. Crew Lead Scott Crandall and his team came to the home to install the radon mitigation system. The team was able to install the system in only a couple of hours.
This homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire, was experiencing some sagging on the main level of their home. In their basement, they have some lally columns supporting the main beam then they have some 2x6 pieces of wood supporting another beam. They were looking to replace the pieces of wood with actual supports. Design Specialist David Cormier came to the home and inspected the basement and confirmed that they should replace the wooden supports for more advanced structural supports. He proposed to the homeowners installing SmartJacks. Crew Lead Nick Carelli and his crew installed two SmartJacks where the wooden supports were.
