Respected Foundation Repair Experts in Kingston, NH

A homeowner in Kingston, NH, faced every homeowner's dread - a basement slowly turning into an unplanned indoor pool. Flooding had wrecked havoc, leaving their once cozy and finished basement with damaged walls and spoiled flooring—a heartbreak only worsened every time rain clouds loomed. Understanding the distress, the homeowner reached out to us at Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Our Customer Care team quickly responded, scheduling a visit by one of our System Design Specialists, Peter Carstean. After a careful inspection identifying the core of the water infiltration issue, we recommended a reliable trio of solutions: WaterGuard, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and IceGuard. Our production team, armed with expertise and a customer-first attitude, got to work. We installed WaterGuard—a comprehensive interior drainage system ingeniously designed to catch water seeping in at the perimeter. The TripleSafe Sump Pump, the heart of the solution, was set up as the basement’s new guardian, equipped to handle varying volumes of water efficiently. And to seal our promise against future water woes, the IceGuard system was added to ensure even during the chill of winter, water could still safely flow away from the home, avoiding blockages or overflow.

Leaving the work site cleaner than we found it, our job was complete. The follow-up smiles and sighs of relief were worth every minute spent on the project. The homeowner now enjoys a basement reborn, devoid of flooding anxiety—a space waiting to be reimagined adaptively, whatever the weather outside. Indoor flooding took them by surprise once, but thanks to a thoughtful combination of space-age technology and some determined problem-solving from Erickson Foundation Solutions, rain forecasts in Kingston, NH, hold no fear for them.

The owner of a machine shop in Kingston, NH was concerned with the large cracks which had formed throughout his work space. The large garage area housed several pieces of heavy machinery, as well as vehicles and motorcycles throughout the year. While moving the heavy vehicles and machines around the shop, he noticed there was an echoing sound, a void type sound, coming from beneath the garage slab. Fearing the concrete floor would crack further and cause damage to his property, he reached out to our Erickson Foundation Solutions team to see if there was something he could do to fix the problem.

Our specialist, Anthony Brancato, showed the owner how PolyLevel would be the ideal solution, as it would not require any demolition of concrete or cause any disruption to his business. The repair process would fill the voids with a polymer foam material, which upon installation rapidly expands and reaches all sections of the cavity it enters. All this is completed through tiny port holes in the slab surface. 

On the scheduled day of installation, our production team arrived and discussed once more the goals of the owner, ensuring they were completing the work and getting the results he truly wanted. The process began with laying out a pattern for drilling the port holes, ensuring all the voids beneath the concrete floor were addressed. They then injected the PolyLevel foam and successfully achieved the results they wanted, filling each void beneath the large slab, providing it with proper stability once again.

The owner walked through the garage space jumping and banging the floor in the various points of concern he had, and found the echo sound was no longer present. He was very pleased with the results, and had peace of mind his shop and property were no longer at risk.

This homeowner in Kingston, New Hampshire, purchased their home in 2023. The home was built in 1776 so the homeowner was very interested in what the pre purchase inspection would unveil. During the pre-purchase inspection, the inspector found that the floor system of the home was sagging and that the basement had no sills. After the inspector's full report, the homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection. Our Design Specialist Bryan Barnard met with the homeowners and talked about what the inspector's report said. Bryan then inspected the basement and recommended a solution to stabilize the floor system and add a sill around the basement. Bryan designed a system using SmartJacks to add support to the floor system and we will use our carpenters to install 75 linear feet of sill. 

Our Installation Team led by Eric Witham began by installing our 12 SmartJacks into the basement. We used our big footings to rest on the dirt basement floor. After all of the SmartJacks were installed the team then used the adjustable top to lift and level the floor system. After the SmartJacks were installed the team then installed the sill around the basement. 

The homeowners were very impressed with the solutions that EFS provided to repair their late 1700s home.

A homeowner in Kingston, New Hampshire, had purchased their home 3 years ago. When they purchased the home they knew there was a slight sag in the floors. Now after owning the home for the past 3 years, they have noticed the sag become larger. They decided they wanted to have the sag looked at by a professional. The homeowner call EFS for a free inspection and our Design Specialist Isaac inspected the home and recommended replacing the supports in their crawlspace with SmartJacks.

Our Installation Team began by entering the dirt crawlspace and setting up temporary support to hold up the floors when they removed the old and sunken supports. Next, the team makes solid footings where they can rest. Once a solid base was made, the team measured and cut our SmartJacks to size. Once all of the SJs were cut to size the team props up our supplemental beam across the floor joists. We then install our adjustable top bracket to the top of the SmartJack and then slide them under the supplement beam and screw them together. After all of the SJs were connected the team then start to lift the floor system by tightening the adjustable top of the SmartJack. 

The team was able to lift and level the floor system in the home. The homeowners were very pleased with the results of the project.
