A homeowner in Beverly, Massachusetts, purchased their home less than a month ago and had noticed cracks in the drywall on the main level of the home. The cracks were located above doorways and on walls.
The homeowners didn't know what was happening so they reached out to EFS for a free inspection of their home. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowners and looked at the main level and basement of the home to determine what was causing the cracks. Our specialist found that the floor system in the areas of the cracks was not supported enough. They recommended installing 3 SmartJacks in the basement. The SmartJacks will add support to the floor system where it lacks strength. The homeowner was very pleased with the results of the project.

In Barrington, NH, this homeowner faced a concerning issue – a bowing foundation wall, clearly visible in the before photo, presented a major hindrance to their planned home expansion. Understanding the need for a secure and lasting solution, we were entrusted to address this challenge. By installing the PowerBrace system, as seen in the after photo, we not only stabilized the existing structure but also laid the groundwork for their future home additions. Through this approach, we delivered on our promise for unwavering reliability and a genuinely remarkable customer experience.
This homeowner in Lee, New Hampshire has lived in their home since it was built in 2005. In the last 3 years, they have seen a crack start to form in the foundation wall of their detached garage and get larger every year. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their garage. Our Design Specialist Victor Tapia met with the homeowner and inspected the garage. Victor found that the crack was getting larger because the wall was bowing outward and needed to be stabilized to stop the wall from continuing to bow.
The first photo shows the view of the block wall cracked and bowing in due to expanding soils on the other side. The second photo shows the view on the inside of the block wall after GeoLock Installation. The anchors on the inside are held in place with bolts, stabilizing the wall and preventing it from bowing in any further
