Photo Album: Back Corner of Garage has Cracked and Sunk, Nashua, NH
Gerald G. of Nashua, New Hampshire had recently moved into his new home. Since moving into his home, he noticed that the back corner of his garage is cracked and has sunk. He would like to get this repaired so he can work on his jeep and do other home projects in the garage. Gerald decided to call Erickson Foundation Solutions about a free inspection.
Design Specialist John Prince arrived at the home and inspected the garage and its foundation. John found that to lift the garage slab EFS would need to install 4 Geolock Wall Anchors to secure the wall first. John recommended that Gerald have EFS install the 4 Geolocks Wall Anchors and use PolyLevel to lift and level the garage slab.
Crew Lead Spencer Ladd and his crew arrived at the home to install the Geolock Wall Anchors. After the Geolocks are installed, Nick Melo and his crew arrived at the home and installed PolyLevel and NexusPro to lift level, and seal the garage slab.
