Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Melrose, Massachusetts was experiencing sagging in the main support beam of their home. They would like to have the main beam repaired so it doesn't get any worse. The homeowners consider this their forever home and want to make sure the home stays in good condition. The homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection.

Design Specialist Kenny Calabrese inspected the basement and looked specifically at the main beam in the basement. Kenny recommended installing SmartJacks along the main beam in the basement.  

Crew Lead Ed Nadreau and his team installed 4 SmartJacks under the main support beam in the basement. 

A homeowner in Melrose, Massachusetts, had found a large crack in their foundation wall that they were concerned with. The homeowners called EFS for a free inspection of their foundation. Our Design Specialist/ Project Manager Nate Erickson inspected the home and found that the home was settling and had caused the foundation to crack and begin to bow. Nate recommended installing GeoLocks and Push Piers to the foundation of the home to stabilize the wall and foundation from bowing and settling.

The homeowner of this property had been living here for about a year, and knew he had to get around to fixing his sagging floors. The support columns throughout the basement were not to code, and the beam and floor joists were sagging in several places. Steel I-beams and SmartJacks were installed to replace all these columns, raise the floor slightly in places, and permanently stabilize the floors.
