Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

This homeowner was concerned with her sagging floors, caused by old wooden beams and columns failing in the basement. Erickson proposed and replaced several columns, with our permanent SmartJacks, which can even be adjusted overtime if need be.

This homeowner in Hollis, New Hampshire recently purchased the home and noticed the floor was sagging a little. The homeowners wanted to look into the options they had to permanently fix the sag in the floors. Design Specialist Michael Bierdzycki came to the home and talked to the homeowners about the options they had. They settled on installing SmartJacks in their home. Josh Provost and his crew installed the SmartJacks into the home to permanently fix the sag on the floor. 

Alexander C. of Hollis, New Hampshire was experiencing water entering his basement through two cracks in his foundation. After a big rainstorm, he reached out to EFS to see if they could come out and seal the cracks. Design Specialist Paul Magowan came to the home and inspected the cracks that were in question. He proposed that they seal the cracks using Crack Seal and then use a crack monitor on the bigger crack. The Crack Monitor will allow the homeowner to see if the crack is getting worse or remaining the same. 

Crew Lead Branden Edwards and his crew came to the home and sealed both the wall cracks and installed a Crack Monitor on the crack near the stairs. Both cracks were sealed successfully and won't allow water to enter anymore. 

Alexander was happy that water won't be leaking into his basement anymore. 

This homeowner in Hollis, New Hampshire had purchased their 1830s home a couple of months ago. During the home inspection, they noticed an odor in the basement. More recently they found out that the odor in the basement is because of water entering the basement through the walls. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection. 

Design Specialist Michael LaMalfa inspected the home. During his inspection, he found that the mortar in this almost 200-year-old basement is deteriorating. Water is coming through the holes where the mortar has deteriorated and causing water to collect in the basement. Michael recommended installing an Auxilary wall, Water Guard, Super Sumps, and Sani Dry. 

Crew Lead Nick Carelli and his team arrived at the home and installed an Auxilary wall, 109 ft of Water Guard, 2 Super Sumps, and a Sani Dry into the basement. 

When our team first visited this Hollis, NH home, the garage's upper floor was noticeably cracking – a clear sign of failing support beneath. As you can see in the before photo, the old, deteriorating support posts just couldn't hold up any longer. Our solution? We installed SmartJack support systems, showcasing a brilliant after scene. These steel support beams not only solved the problem but ensure long-lasting stability. Now, the floors above are as secure as ever – a remarkable transformation indeed.
