Foundation Problems Photo Album: Geolocks Installation, Andover, NH
Harvey B. of Andover, NH was experiencing cracking in his garage wall. Harvey had noticed this issue since this past winter when the area had heavy snowfall. He decided to call Erickson Foundation Solutions about a free inspection.
Design Specialist Jason Vachon arrived at the home and inspected the garage. He discovered that the wall was bowing inward about 3/8". Jason proposed that Erickson Foundation Solutions installed a couple of Geolocks to pull the wall back into alignment.
Crew Lead Ed Nadreau and his team came to the home and installed two Geolocks to the back left of the garage.
