Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Groton, Massachusetts had purchased their home 2 years ago as a fixer-upper with foundation issues. When the homeowner purchased the home they believed they could do some of the repairs themselves. The homeowner doesn't think that is the case anymore. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection. 

The design specialist recommended a masonry wall rebuild

The EFS team first supported the home using temporary posts. They then chipped away the old foundation wall down to the footing. Next, they poured a new footing. Once the footing was set they started building the masonry wall.

This homeowner chose Erickson Foundation Supportworks to install a radon mitigation system. The installation process involved sealing some cracks within the foundation walls. Some of the cracks had been sealed previously, however were not done properly.

This crawlspace had some light plastic laid out over the exposed soil, which had become dirty and useless over the years. A new homeowner moved in and wanted to clean up the space. Additionally, a structural engineer informed the owner the beams and posts supporting the structure were in severe disrepair, and so needed to be stabilized and/or replaced. Erickson Foundation Supportworks installed a number of SmartJacks and enclosed the area with CleanSpace Encapsulation System. There were several large rocks sticking up out of the soil which could not be removed from the crawlspace, and so the CleanSpace product does not appear to be perfectly flat in some places.
