Foundation Problems Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Milford, New Hampshire lives in an older home and they were concerned with the floor system. They called EFS for a free inspection of their floor system and our Design Specialist recommended installing SmartJacks into the basement to add support to the floor system. 

This homeowner in Milford, NH was concerned with a crack they discovered in their basement foundation wall beneath a cast iron drainage pipe. The crack had been there for several years, however over the past year had started leaking small amounts of water. Not wanting the problem to get worse, they reached out to our Erickson team for a solution. 

Our design specialist, Anthony, was able to determine there was no movement or deflection in the concrete wall itself. The amount of water coming in through the crack also did not warrant a perimeter waterproofing system. The best solution was for this type of crack was Flexispan crack seal. The homeowner was pleased with the proposal and explanation from Anthony, and hired our Erickson team for the repairs. Our service technician, Branden Edwards, completed the Flexispan installation in half a day, and also recommended a SaniDry dehumidifier for the basement since the humidity rating was above 70%.

After a clear design and installation process, and the crack being properly sealed, the homeowner was very pleased with the results. 

This home in Mont Vernon, NH had some concerns with sloping floors and sagging beams. Our team proposed and installed lally column replacements, called SmartJacks, to permanently stabilize the floor system. 

Before tackling a kitchen renovation, the homeowners in Ayer, MA faced sagging floors and falling insulation, clearly seen in the previous photo. Notice how the first photo shows the stark reality of compromised support and wear millions of houses endure. We stepped in with our SmartJack solution - a strong, adjustable system designed specifically for such predicaments. As the after photo proudly displays, the ground is now uplifted and stabilized, ensuring a solid foundation for any upcoming remodeling. Our commitment shines through in delivering not just a fix, but a transformation.

This homeowner in Pepperell, Massachusetts had an issue with sagging floors in their house. They wanted new lally columns to help support the floor. They decided to give Erickson Foundation Supportworks a call and they set up an appointment. 

Brian Allen was the Design Specialist on this project. Brian came to their home and walked them through some options to reverse the effects of sagging floors. Brian recommended that the homeowners use SmartJacks to support their floors. Jon Provost was the Crew Lead on this project. Jon and his crew successfully installed the SmartJacks in the homeowner's basement. The SmartJacks made it so the floor was no longer sagging anymore.

The picture will show what the basement looked like before and after the SmartJacks were installed.
