Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Lawrence, Massachusetts, purchased their home 8 months ago knowing repairs would have to be made. The first problem they wanted to address was the floors not being level. They called EFS for a free inspection of their floors. The Design Specialist inspected the floors. They recommended installing SmartJacks and Supplemental beams to level and stabilize the floor. 

A crew from EFS installed 4 SmartJacks and 12' of Supplemental beam. They fixed the SmartJacks to the Supplemental beam which is supporting the rafters. The crew pours concrete over the footing of the SmartJacks to lock them into place. 

The floors in this home were sagging and settling more and more over time. The owners had been using temporary supports to minimize the damage, but eventually needed a more permanent solution. Erickson Foundation Supportworks installed several Smart Jack posts to address the issue. The homeowner then had a carpenter come in to help renovate the lower level of them where the ceiling and floor were affected. 

The basement area of this condo unit in Charlestown, MA had a number of old wooden columns supporting the floor above. Over the years, temporary adjustable jacks were also  installed to help with the sagging floors, but this was not a permanent solution. Our team installed 3 SmartJacks to replace the failing columns. The SmartJacks are engineered to withstand the weight of the entire structure above, and will prevent any further floors or beams from sagging. 

This homeowner in Epsom, New Hampshire had a crack in their foundation. EFS came out to the home and inspected the crack and recommended using Push Piers to stabilize the foundation. The EFS crew arrived at the home and installed Push Piers on the foundation of the home. 

A homeowner in Epsom, New Hampshire, had concerns with their foundation wall and water entering their basement. The foundation wall was leaning and had a crack in it that allowed water to enter the basement. The homeowner reached out to EFS for a free inspection. Our design specialist inspected the home and recommended installing Geolocks and a perimeter drainage system in the basement.
