Gopal A. of Acton, Massachusetts had some large floor cracks in their basement. They called Erickson Foundation Solutions to see if they could come out and inspect their basement. Design Specialist John Merna came out to the home and inspected the basement and found that the cracks in the basement are letting radon-filled air seep through the slab. John proposed that Gopal thinks about installing a radon mitigation system and also sealing all of the cracks.
Crew Lead Branden Edwards and his team came to the home and installed a custom Radon Mitigation System and sealed all of the cracks in the basement.
