Before & After Photos

A homeowner in North Reading, Massachusetts had been experiencing cracks in the basement. Not interested in a sump pump, he was curious to see what other waterproofing options existed. He reached out to us to further explore those options.
The common method of repairing basement wall cracks involves an injection of a polyurethane material that generally will fail over time due. This material dries into a firm substance that can't move with a wall. Since concrete naturally shrinks and is subject to pressure from soils, it's essential to have a crack repair system that can work with the wall's movement. FlexiSpan is the ideal solution to this problem. This flexible sealant is made of open cell foam and waterproof sealant.

FlexiSpan is designed to move with a wall, ensuring that the entire crack is sealed even if there is a change in the wall. This is a permanent solution that installs smoothly over a wall, and its neutral color will fit with a concrete wall. FlexiSpan can easily be covered up with a basement finishing product as well.

A homeowner in Melrose, Massachusetts had a big gap between the pool and concrete deck. He was concerned with critters going into this gap, as well as the unappealing look and tripping hazards. Looking to restore the pool area, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Our Design Specialist, Kenneth Calabrese, recommended installing PolyLevel to lift and level the concrete. Voids underneath the concrete are filled by this polyurethane foam, creating permanent stability. Foreman Nick Melo was able to lift the concrete 4" to bring the concrete back to its original placement.

With tripping hazards eliminated, the pool is transformed into an attractive and safe space!

A homeowner in Lee, New Hampshire, has lived in their home for over 30 years. During the winter they find that the floors of their main floor get very cold. They called EFS so we could find a solution to add insulation to their crawlspace. Our Specialist met with the homeowner and inspected the crawlspace. We recommended installing CleanSpace, Drainage Matting, SilverGlo, SmartJacks, and a SaniDry Sedona into the basement. These products will insulate, stabilize, and control the moisture within the basement and help keep the floors warmer during the colder months. 

This homeowner in East Kingston, NH had been experiencing a wet basement since the day he moved into the house. The high amount of moisture led to mold forming throughout the basement and also the first floor. After 22 years of experiencing this uncomfortable humidity, the homeowner decided to reach out to our Erickson Foundation Solutions team to make a change.

Our Design Specialist, Victor Tapia, suggested installing our SaniDry Dehumidifier to eliminate these issues. This system not only provides a dry environment, but also drains automatically, as well as removes mold spores and other irritants and allergens.

Now that the SaniDry Dehumidifier is installed, this homeowner can finally enjoy his basement and take comfort in knowing that mold will no longer be an issue.

Homeowners in Georgetown, Massachusetts planned on making a playroom for their children in the basement. After getting the permitting to build, they learned that an egress window needed to be installed for the basement to be up to code. Looking for a company that could provide quality work at a reasonable price, they reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Our Design Specialist, John Prince, recommended installing an egress window with a RockWell window well and cover. The egress window, paired with the well and cover, is designed to allow more natural light into the living space, while also providing a safe exit in the event of an emergency. The RockWell well system has built in steps and a strong, durable lid that prevents children, pets, and everything else from falling in.

With these systems installed, the homeowners can build their playroom knowing it will be a bright and safe space!
