Photo Album: Sunroom Needs to be Stabilized, Boxford, MA
Erickson Foundation Solutions recently finished a project on a sunroom in Boxford, Massachusetts. The project was to install EZ posts and SmartJacks. The homeowner had to replace the roof because the water was entering and causing damage. Before the homeowner replaced the roof they wanted to stabilize the foundation of the sunroom.
The homeowner met with Design Specialist John Prince. John found the 6 original supports of the sunroom are sinking. John had also noticed that there is some sagging on the floor in the sunroom. John recommended installing 6 Helical Piers and 3 SmartJacks with a Supplemental beam under the sunroom.
