Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Lowell, Massachusetts, had sagging and bouncing floors on their main floor. The homeowner wanted to have the floors fixed correctly so they reached out to EFS for a free inspection. Our team inspected the home and recommended installing lally columns and SmartJacks into the crawlspace.   

Notice in the photo from Lowell, MA, a homeowner faced a serious challenge with a foundation wall leaning inward, risking the integrity of the entire home. Erickson Foundation Solutions swiftly stepped in with a precision-engineered fix: our GeoLock Wall Anchor system. As you can see, the heavy-duty steel anchors are expertly embedded in stable soil and connected to steel wall plates. This solution not only halts further movement but also has the capability to gradually restore the wall over time. Experience regained property value and enduring peace of mind with our proven expertise.

In Dracut, MA, a homeowner faced a critical issue with a failing foundation wall that was dangerously close to collapse. As shown in the before photo, the structural integrity was notably compromised. Erickson Foundation Solutions delivered a permanent fix. We installed a new footing alongside our StableLock auxiliary wall to completely restore stability. Our team used the PowerBrace System, renowned for its zinc-plated steel beams, to permanently stabilize and secure the wall. The after photo illustrates a secure foundation, highlighting our expertise in ensuring safe and stable homes.

This homeowner in Windham, NH had a crack in their foundation wall, which had been patched over the years, but still let in moisture. They needed a more permanent fix. We sealed the crack with a polyurethane injection, which expands inside the crack as a foam and reaches far into the cravice to prevent the water from coming through. The surface of the crack is then coated with an epoxy to add an extra layer of protection. This two part system guarantees no further moisture will come in through the foundation crack.

This seasonal cottage on Cobbetts Pond in Windham, NH was suffering from sagging floors, settlement, and unstable soils. Water was constantly running down a hill toward the home and the lake just beyond it. As water flowed through the soil beneath the home, the concrete piers and wood posts settled over time. The home needed more permanent stabilization if it was going to last.

Erickson Foundation Supportworks installed EZ Post helical piers around the perimeter of the home. SmartJack columns were also installed beneath to replace concrete piers and rotten wood posts.
