Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Chris S. of Durham, NH was experiencing some foundational issues under their garage that caused the concrete ceiling to start to crumble. Chris called EFS to see if they could assist in fixing his garage. Design Specialist, Nate Erickson, came out to the property and inspected the garage to see what is causing the ceiling to start to crumble. Nate found that in a cellar under the garage there is a crack that is caused the foundation to weaken. The crack has weakened the foundation which has caused movement and cracked the ceiling. Nate proposed that the Erickson Crew install a galvanized sheet to cover the crumbling ceiling, then installed a couple of beams that will span the width of the garage to secure the ceiling. Then to finish it off install PolyLEVEL to stabilize and level the foundation. 

Crew Lead Scott Crandall and his team came to the home and installed the galvanized sheets on the ceiling and then installed a couple of I-beams across the width of the garage.

After the sheets and I-beams were installed, a second crew came to the home. The PolyLEVEL Crew led by Nick Melo came to the home and injected PolyLEVEL into the areas that were out of level. 

Chris was happy to see that his garage was structurally sound again.

A condominium on Hampton Beach, New Hampshire, was experiencing a myriad of foundation issues. The foundation was cracking, shifting, and falling back into a marsh. Senior Design Specialist Michael LaMalfa came to the condo and examined all of the units and the surroundings of the building to gauge what repairs the building would need. He proposed that the first action item would be Geolock Anchors along the back wall and sides of the building. 

Crew Lead Spencer Ladd and his team came and drilled through the concrete in each of the 10 units garages to install Geolocks from the back wall to the trench in the garage. A large galvanized metal plate is put on each side of a metal rod that is drilled between the trench and the back wall to hold things in place. 

Over a span of two and a half months, the crew installed a few different foundation securing devices.
