Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Acton, Massachusetts has lived in his home for the past 30 years and always had water enter his garage. With the situation getting progressively worse over time, water now enters the basement as well. Basement floods have caused damage to the bottom steps, forcing him to remove them. With the stress of foundation leaks becoming too much to bear, he reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions to waterproof the basement.

Our Design Specialist, Mark Proctor, recommended installing perimeter drainage and our TripleSafe sump pump system. This captures water along the foundation walls before being exposed to the basement, and is then delivered to the sump basin, where our three-pump system pumps the unwanted water out of the home through an exterior discharge line.

This before and after photo comparison highlights our crew's ability to bury the discharge system while leaving a minimal trace of the ground being dug up. The 25' of discharge line extended to the end of the backyard, providing a safe location for water to be disposed of. IceGuard was installed to this plumbing system to prohibit water from freezing in the pipes. This prevents the sump system getting backed up, eliminating the possibility of the sump basin overflowing and filling the basement with water.

With the systems installed, this homeowner now has peace of mind that his basement will always stay dry!

A homeowner in Hudson, New Hampshire, had water entering their basement from a vertical crack in the foundation. Our production team installed FlexiSpan to seal the crack and guide water out of the basement. 

Recently, a homeowner in our Hudson, NH community waterproofed their finished basement. As a final step in our waterproofing process, we added IceGuard to the discharge line to avert pipe freezing in the chilly winters. To maintain the backyard's visual charm, we buried the discharge line. Additionally, we placed a bubbler pot at the end of the discharge line to stop water from accumulating on the lawn. The homeowners are now assured that their basement will remain dry and their lawn safeguarded.

Before tackling this project in Hudson, NH, a beautifully finished basement was under the threat of water damage, as the old sump pump struggled to fend off incoming water. As you can see in the before photo, the space was beginning to suffer. Fast forward to the after - we installed our state-of-the-art WaterGuard and the TripleSafe Sump Pump systems. Notice how the space is now safeguarded, ensuring peace of mind and a dry basement ready for years of enjoyment. This transformation effectively resolved our client’s water woes, staying true to our commitment to providing durable solutions while ensuring an excellent customer experience.

The homeowner in Hudson, NH, faced basement leaks through the foundation wall after storms, as shown in the before photo. We expertly addressed this issue by installing our WaterGuard system, which privately channels water to a strategically placed TripleSafe sump pump.

At Erickson Foundation Solutions, our systems work seamlessly to ensure peace of mind, delivering a reliably waterproofed space.
