Ashland, MA's Professional Foundation Repair & Concrete Leveling

Recently, we had the privilege of serving a homeowner in Ashland, MA, who was facing a frustrating challenge. With plans to sell their home, they were hindered by water damage issues in their basement. Water was infiltrating their home through the foundation walls, threatening the appeal and value of their property by damaging the drywall in their well-appointed basement space.

Our journey began with a call to our friendly Customer Care team, leading to an in-depth inspection by one of our expert System Design Specialists, Jim Meglio. After a thorough analysis, we identified the best course of action: the installation of our reliable WaterGuard and FlexiSpan systems, accompanied by the UltraSump System and IceGuard for comprehensive protection. The WaterGuard system was strategically installed along the basement perimeter to capture any incoming water, directing it efficiently to the UltraSump sump pump system. Meanwhile, our FlexiSpan technology provided a permanent solution for sealing wall cracks, preventing any future water leaks. We rounded out the waterproofing with the IceGuard system, preventing backups due to frozen discharge lines during those cold Massachusetts winters. Completing the job was a team of our proficient installers, who ensured everything was installed precisely and cleanly, leaving the homeowner’s basement dry, damage-free, and ready to impress prospective buyers.

In wrapping up the project, we were not just delighted to solve the homeowner's immediate predicament but also to provide them with peace of mind, knowing their basement was safeguarded against future water issues. The homeowner was elated with the transformation – a dry, secure basement adds not just to their home’s inviting atmosphere but its market value too. This is just one example of how we strive every day to provide a remarkable customer experience while delivering reliable, long-lasting solutions.

At Erickson Foundation Solutions, we recently had the pleasure of helping a homeowner in Ashland, MA, tackle a nagging issue in their basement. The homeowner had noticed that their existing sump pump just wasn't up to the task of keeping their basement dry, especially since they were keen on finishing part of this space. They envisioned transforming it into a useful area of their home but knew that the waterproofing had to be spot on. The stakes were higher since the homeowner, eager to pass on a sturdy and secure home to their son, needed a solution they could trust for years to come.

Our journey began with an initial call to our Customer Care team, who quickly arranged for a detailed home inspection. Our System Design Specialist Gerald Martin was dispatched to assess the situation thoroughly. They recommended a comprehensive waterproofing solution designed to provide lasting relief. Implementing the proposed solution, our experienced production team got down to work. The install included our top-notch WaterGuard drainage system, designed to efficiently catch any perimeter leaks or wall seepage. However, the centerpiece of our installation was the TripleSafe Sump Pump, chosen for its reliability and its unique ability to adapt to varying water levels and pumping requirements. To ensure the system would operate flawlessly throughout the harsh winter months, we also fitted an IceGuard on the exterior discharge line, preventing backups due to frozen pipes.

The homeowner was thrilled with the process and especially the result— a completely transformed and dry basement ready for finishing touches. This not only solved a persistent headache but also brought them closer to handing down a well-maintained, comfortable home to the next generation. Seeing homeowners relieved and satisfied with their newly waterproofed basements is why we do what we do.

When the Ashland homeowner reached out to us at Erickson Foundation Solutions, they had a vision of a beautifully finished basement, free of water worries that too often dampen such projects—literally. The problem? Their basement, like many in our area, was prone to water intrusion, making their dream seem like a distant possibility.

Our approach began, as always, with a sense of dedicated care. After contacting our Customer Care team, the homeowner was visited by one of our expert System Design Specialists, Jim Meglio. Upon a thorough inspection, it became evident that we needed a comprehensive solution. Our recommended installation of FlexiSpan, WaterGuard, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and IceGuard was the ideal package to ensure their basement remained dry, comfortable, and livable for many years to come. FlexiSpan was the first line of defense, sealing off cracks and preventing any water entry, while our WaterGuard drainage system was tactically installed at the basement's perimeter, ready to intercept any water that dared try to seep in. Our TripleSafe Sump Pump system, powerfully efficient yet whisper-quiet, addressed any water the WaterGuard collected, pumping it far from the basement, ensuring peace of mind during even the heaviest of storms. The IceGuard system complemented our installation, ensuring flawless operation even in the freezing winters Ashland is known for.

The results? Spectacular. Not only did we tackle the water intrusion problem head-on, leaving the basement bone-dry, but we also paved the way for the homeowner’s basement renovation vision to become a reality. By transforming a once-unreliable space into a cozy and dependably dry extension of their home, we once again lived up to our mission of delivering a remarkable customer experience.
