Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A resident of Dover, New Hampshire had intended to replace the windows in their old home from the late 1800s. However, the window technician who came to assess the project noticed that the windows were no longer square and difficult to open. The technician advised the homeowner to have their foundation inspected before proceeding with window replacement. The homeowner contacted EFS for a free foundation inspection, and our Design Specialist, Jason Vachon, met with them to conduct the inspection. Based on the findings, Jason recommended several products to stabilize the foundation, including installing a new section using Mason Block.

Doug B. of Wakefield, New Hampshire was experiencing sagging in his barns foundation.  He decided to call Erickson Foundation Solutions about a free inspection. Design Specialist Paul Magowan came to the home and inspected the foundation of the barn and he thinks that using SmartJacks will permanently stabilize the foundation. 

Crew Lead Scott Crandall and his crew came to Doug's barn and stabilized the foundation using 8 Smart Jacks. 

The owner of this old barn in Somersworth, NH knew they had to take action to save the old fieldstone foundation from crumbling, as well as repair the sagging floor joist system. Our team of specialists proposed and designed solutions for both concerns and permanently fixed the problems for the owner. 

For the collapsing stone and brick foundation walls around the perimeter, our team supported them with an auxiliary, poured concrete wall system, complete with reinforced steel and rebar components. When it comes to field stone foundations, a lot of times this is the only solution that does not involve completely lifting the structure and pouring new foundation all together. 

Once the old foundation walls were stabilized, our crew then replaced the failing lally column supports throughout the crawlspace area with our steel SmartJack supports. These new columns have large steel bases installed over large concrete or engineered fill footings, ensuring the weight load is properly distributed, as well as removing the chance for further settlement. 

This property owner now has peace of mind knowing their old barn has a solid foundation, allowing them to preserve the structure above and keep it standing for years to come.

This homeowner in Portsmouth, New Hampshire needed to install new lally columns into their basement. Design Specialist Paul Magowan came to the home and recommended that the home would benefit from installing SmartJacks into their basement.

This rental property owner has a property in Portsmouth, New Hampshire that required some attention. The owner had noticed a bow on her foundation wall as well as some waterproofing concerns. She decided to call EFS for a free inspection for homeowners. 

Senior Design Specialist Michael LaMalfa inspected the rental property. During Michael's inspection, he found a long crack on the block foundation wall. Michael thinks that the crack in the wall is because of hydrostatic pressure. He had also found some moisture issues in the basement. Michael recommended installing PowerBraces, CleanSpace, Water Guard, Super Sumps, Freeze Guard, and Sani Dry.
