Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Center Barnstead, New Hampshire needed to have their supports looked at in their crawlspace. They had issues with their floors sagging so they were interested in calling Erickson Foundation Supportworks to see what they could do. 

Design specialist Paul Magowan confirmed the supports would need to be replaced, so he recommended they use SmartJacks in their crawlspace. Josh Provost was the Crew Lead on this project. He and his team installed the SmartJacks by digging out a hole under where each support would go and installed each over reinforced, engineered fill. The engineered fill is designed to spread the amount of weight the SmartJack is holding. The solution eliminated the sagging in the floor.

This home in Center Barnstead, New Hampshire, had some foundation issues that were found during an inspection of the home. EFS was contacted to provide a solution and our Design Specialist recommended installing Geolocks to support and straighten the cracked and bowing cinder block wall. Our team proposed and installed 11 Geolock wall anchors, which fully stabilized the wall against any further bowing or movement.

The existing concrete pillars supporting this home's bump-out addition were sinking and leaning more and more over the years. The bump-out required more stable supports, and so EZ Posts were installed to replace the pillars.

A homeowner in Billerica, Massachusetts, had lived in their home for almost 20 years and this year they started to notice some cracks in their foundation wall. Recently they installed a new oil tank and started to notice cracking after the tank was installed. Their home was built in the 1950s and this is the first issue they have seen with the foundation. To address their concerns they decided to call EFS for a free inspection, our design specialist found the cracks in their foundation wall were forming because of pressure from the exterior of the home. Our design specialist recommended installing PowerBraces against the foundation wall to add support.

This homeowner in Billerica, Massachusetts, purchased their home in the late 1980s and built a large addition in 2007. About 15 years after building the extension the homeowner noticed the doors and window become tight and difficult to open. They called EFS for a free inspection of the foundation. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowners and inspected the home for settlement. Our specialist concluded there was significant foundation movement and recommended installing Push Piers to stabilize the foundation of the addition. 

Our crew arrived and installed 14 Push Piers to the foundation to lift and stabilize the foundation.
