Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Hudson, Massachusetts had water seeping through their basement slab. Their current sump pump system was not removing water from the home, leaving water under the finished floorboards. With concern that the leaking would get worse, she reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions in order to protect her investment.

After discussion with the homeowner, our Design Specialist, Mark Proctor, recommended installing two TripleSafe sump pump systems. One system was installed to replace the broken sump pump, and another was installed in a different location to ensure water is captured throughout the basement. This sump pump is guaranteed to pump water out of the home at all times due to our three-pump system. The first pump removes normal water levels throughout the home. A second pump is activated during events such as heavy rains or snow melting, making sure that the sump basin never overflows. A third battery-powered backup pump functions in emergency situations such as a power outage.

Once installed, these systems were cemented in place for a clean finish. The homeowner now has peace of mind that her finished basement will remain dry!

In Southborough, MA, this homeowner faced a perpetually wet dirt basement, hampering effective storage and compromising structural integrity with failing wooden support posts. Notice how the before photo captures the water and damaged elements that posed issues. To resolve this, we skillfully installed a comprehensive system: WaterGuard®, TripleSafe™ Sump Pump, UltraSump System, and IceGuard, coupled with SmartJack®. These systems were incased with a concrete floor pour. Our method permanently addressed the root causes of moisture and instability, as seen in the after photo, resulting in a dry, structural sound space with a concrete foundation fit for storage.

As seen, the water damage threatened their basement’s usability and structural integrity. After photo: We installed our WaterGuard drainage system along with the TripleSafe sump pump for dependable waterproofing. To prevent discharge line blockages, IceGuard was placed strategically for reassurance during colder months. For the finishing touch, Elite Plank Flooring and EverLast Half Wall expertly restored the basement's aesthetic and function. This expertly executed solution provides peace of mind and a permanently dry basement.

Our team was called out to a home in Stow, Massachusetts to find a solution to a burnt-out SaniDry plug. The homeowner called EFS to book a service call with one of our Service Technicians. Our Service Tech Justin came out to the home and proceeded to address the plug on the SaniDry. 

Justin found the plug of the SaniDry was plugged into a surge-protected power strip which must have shorted because it was charred when Justin showed up. Justin brought an extra power cord that works with the SaniDry and rerouted the power to a different outlet because the old plug needed to be repaired. 

A homeowner in Stow, Massachusetts, reached out to us at EFS after their basement flooded on Christmas Eve. Our Design Specialist Justin recommended replacing their old sump pump with a TripleSafe. 

Our team installed our TripleSafe into the basement within a couple of hours. With our TripleSafe installed the homeowner won't have to worry about water collecting in their basement anymore.
